Bama isn't part of the conversation. We beat the rest that's all that matters. Oeaux was due for a letdown and I was afraid this would be it. 3rd big road game with 2 epic games on deck.

We're fine in the trenches. Today was about effort.

Agree to disagree I guess.

There are other things you can do that don’t require a drop back

Lack of a blitzing defensive game plan is why we lost.

The lines need work. I don’t think the offense got overly conservative, but I think the play calling was hit/miss. Finally adjusted to the pressure. The refs sucked, think FU got a little home cooking.

You saw auburn and Miami. This game doesn't nullify them. Both those teams we controlled with elite line play.
Today we lost to a lesser team for a reason beyond talent. I'm sure you can figure out the why eventually.

The 3 man rush was working for one of those teams

I’ll agree with that. But I’m talking about LSU being elite and winning the SEC. That won’t happen without dominating line play. Today was just a showing that supports that logic. I’m ok with calling it a lack of effort for today’s game. But we can chat again after we go up against Georgia and Alabama’s line if you’d like.

I’m not miserable about this loss like I was toward the end of Miles’ tenure. We looked like we belonged. Still a lot of tough games to play, but I think O has us moving in the right direction. We’re better off now than when he was hired. That could change if we face plant.

Not sure E is a dynamic enough play caller, Mullen probably would have been a home run. He basically invented modern football with Teblow.
