Don't know about score predictions because just like someone else stated, every week I've said the offense will finally click has been just another week watching them flail around like fish out of water. I'm just curious to see if JJ has a marked improvement this game. Miles, though always tight-lipped, did say that they have worked with him extensively to correct the sacks issue (JJ holding the ball too long, etc.). If that's indeed fixed, then we should see results. If he's not on his back, then we're not losing yards due to sacks and you've got to hope that if he's not taking sacks, that his passes are finding their mark. If JJ's issues are taken care of, and our defense plays like they have been, we'll win. That's my only prediction.
I am thinking that this should be a big game for Scott and anyone else that gets a number of carries. Just keep running counter plays weakside. You will be impressed with yourselves. With our inability to blitz JJ should have time to develop some swagger. If not, I agree it will be time to see what RS can do.
I think the offense shows a little of what it is capable of, though not as much as some here might like. Still, they play a decent game and break 400 yards of total offense. LSU - 31 AU - 17 LSU total yards: ~415 (225 Passing, 190 rushing) Jefferson - 205 yards passing, 20 yards rushing, 1 int, 2 TD's Shepard - 20 passing, 40 rushing, 1 TD Scott - 85 yards, 1 TD Williams - 45 yards Defense (Peterson and/or Jones) picks Auburn off at least once.
man, me too. i just don't think this offense can put 41 points up. maybe if the defense scores two touchdowns and sets up a FG or another TD... then, MAYBE. i hate to keep harping on it, but this is one of the saddest looking offenses that i've ever seen. at any level. a lot of our acclaimed athletes look like they're picking up a football for the first time in their lives. coaching had better have made a complete 180 the last two weeks in practice, because they get a D so far. defense coaching gets an A, so overall i'd give LSU a B minus at this point. but 41 points? that sure would make my day. :grin:
