    OU's 6-3 330 guard (#52):

    1) These are not the same.

    2) OU running attack is power-based.  LSU's is zone.  LSU actually has worse players for what they try to do.

    OK.  Are we playing OU this weekend or UT?

    Yes, especially compared to the alternative offensive game plan where coach retard interjects half way through and they start lining up in the I. Really hope Ed tries to coach this weekend.

    I think he coaches every week, but I could be mistaken...

    But they didnt do great, at least not run blocking. I guarantee your coaches weren't happy with it and believe there is plenty to address. Not shitting the bed is good. Maybe the pass blocking translates to better competition, maybe it doesnt. But you have to be slightly concerned about the lack of dominance in run blocking. Maybe it is stuff that can be cleaned up in a week's worth of practice. 

    We'll see.  The pass should set up the run in this offense.   At least that is my impression.

    I do admit that. This is what I initially said, "LSU's OL IMO is still TBD. While they did great against GA Southern. It still remains to be seen if they can do it against better competition."

     

    I agree.  They are the wildcard in all of this.  We'll have a better idea come saturday night.

    The LSU defense is greater, and has more nfl talent than any of those in the big 12, but the gap between them is not a large as you think.

    If LSU had to face actual cohesive offensive game plans and schemes week after week to this would be obvious.

    Cohesive...lol.  So the word that comes to mind when thinking of the UT offense is 'cohesive'...still chuckling.

    Its a fair point. Look no further than 2017. The reason we lost to Troy was because Orgeron meddled with the offense and told Canada to stop with all the motions. The result was a terrible display of offense... I do think he has hitched his wagon onto Ensminger, one of his best friends and someone who he is super comfortable. He has 100% given the offense to Ensminger, and Ensminger has basically given Joe Brady the reigns.

    I agree with this.  If Eaux meddles and screws things up...again...it could be his arse.

    Wipe the mud off your feet (that's what the welcome mat is for) and come on in and grab a beer.  If you're willing to talk football you will do just fine here.  If you're just talking shit you may as well turn around now.  Just leave your silly memes at home.  I've seen a bunch of them while skimming LSU boards.  Will address the worst and most prevalent right up front here:

    Meme #1:  LSU is much more talented – LSU is slightly more talented.  Average ranking of the last 4 recruiting classes is 7.25 for LSU and 9.5 for Texas.  2 spots in the rankings is not much of an edge and the difference is entirely due to the 2017 transition class.

     

    Meme #2:  This game reminds me of Miami last year - If you actually think this you should check with your doctor for early onset Alzheimer’s.  Texas is more talented than Miami was and far better coached.  Miami was recruiting top 25 and stepped up with the #12 and #6 sophomore and freshman classes respectively.  Texas’ prior level was top 15 followed by back to back #3 classes.

     

    Miami had a UGa reject as HC and a Texas reject as DC who was ridden out of town on a rail mid-season.  _iaz was so badly abused by Big XII OCs he had to spend years in conferences with inferior offenses like the ACC and SEC rebuilding his reputation.  Texas has a HC who steps up in big games.  Tom Herman was 5-2 against the top 25 in 2018 and 6-0 at UH.  We also have a top notch DC instead of the guy who made Taysom Hill look like Cam Newton.

     

    Meme #3:  The Georgia Southern game was so impressive – Actually it’s very much like what happened the last time LSU faced a team on that level.  The major differences between last weekend and the Rice game during the November bye week were two: LSU actually was able to run the ball effectively last year and they went +2 in TO margin this year instead of -1 resulting in quicker scores.

     

    So it’s impressive until you consider the quality of the opponent.  LSU’s offense often looks unstoppable against bad teams.  It’s impressive until you remember that last year’s offense did essentially the same thing to a different over matched scrub.  It’s impressive until you realize that 70% of the passes were within 5 yds of the LOS and half within 2 yds of the line.  A lot of those are going to be minimal gains or TFLs against a real defense.

    Thank you for the welcome.  I invite all of the UT faithful to visit tigerdroppings.  Much fun banter to be had.  Ignore the name callers and vulgarians.

    Cheers.

    Not sure about help area - this forum works the same as most of them do, so no help really needed.

    As far as replying to specific posters - at the bottom of the box the referenced post is in, there is a button labeled "QUOTE". Give it a shot.

    Thank you.  Again, no offense to this board, but Tigerdroppings is worth emulating...

  9. Alien, vulgarity does not become you or your august school.  It bespeaks one who has no argument.  I am sure you can do better.  Look, LSU looked more focused in the GASO game than I can recall them being in many years.  Don't know if they can repeat that, but if so, I think they handle the longhorns with little difficulty.  

    • Fuck You 3
  10. To Tree, what is your point, exactly?

    To Alien, is having a top defense in the big xii like winning a gold medal in the special olympics...lol.

    Cheers to all my UT colleagues.  BTW my middle son graduated from UT last spring.  My best friend is a UT grad.

  11. I suspect that LSU's defensive game plan will be to force SE to beat them with his arm.  They will understand his ability to run which may expose him to getting tatooed-fortunes of war.  I do not see any glaring weaknesses on LSU's defense so I think the longhorns offense will find the tigers to be a right handful.  Just sayin'.  

    The LSU offense may still have some line difficulties, but they committed few errors for having learned an entirely new system.  I was very surprised by that.  I think that 14 different players caught passes.  I think the LSU offensive game plan will be to confuse the UT defense which does not sound difficult given the way they have played defense of late....

    Cheers.

  12. We'll see how much better a passer SE is compared to JB on saturday.  I think LSU's new offense should be somewhat more effective at moving the chains and scoring compared to La Tech, but I could be wrong about that.  They may be infinitely better than Tech...lol.

    Anyway, may the better team win.

    Note: This is broken up into 2 parts because of tl;dr and standard surly ADD.

     

    Contrary to popular belief, LSU is not a great running team.  They’re not even that good a running team.  They were quite average in 2018 with 4.0 YPC (recall UGa was 6.1 YPC).  Their yards per attempt ranked #91 in the country.  Taking out sacks, they rushed for 4.6 YPC against the standard 3 cupcake schedule and none of their RBs came close to averaging 5 yds per carry (again both of UGa’s were at 6.5 YPC going into the Sugar Bowl).  I suspect many people only saw the LSU-Georgia game and are extrapolating from that season best performance fueled by 4 UGa turnovers.

    The design of the offense is very conservative, even more so than Georgia.  LSU tries to protect the ball, control field position and wear down the defense but doesn’t score much.  20 points or less was typical against better defenses unless they got multiple turnovers or big special teams plays.  60/40 is their run-pass ratio with very heavy tendency to run between the tackles.  Their top returning back Edwards-Helaire averaged 4.5 YPC in 2018.  They have some talented youngsters incoming but there’s no way to assess how much impact they might have in game 2 of their career.

    Quarterback

    As with UGa the play calling tends towards run, run, deep shot with WR screens and hitches thrown in occasionally.  But LSU has a much less accurate passer than Fromm.  Joe Burrow completed 57.8% of his passes for 7.7 YPA.  The main things in his favor are that he’s tough so he’s less likely to get rattled and he’s a pretty good runner.  6.3 YPC (sacks removed) is pretty darn good and higher than Sam’s.  As a runner LSU’s QB is equivalent to Baylor’s Charlie Brewer or ISU’s Brock Purdy. 

    As a passer Burrow would be one of the worst quarterbacks in the Big XII.  If you want to see a statistical comparison of Burrow and Sam Ehlinger I did one in January here: 

    Burrow protects the ball pretty well with only 5 INTs to go with his 16 TD last season.  Put him in a hole and under pressure and that’s when the mistakes happen so getting a lead and forcing them to play catch up is important.

    This board is far more difficult than tigerdroppings.  Wow.  Not sure how one can reply or do anything.  Is there a help board.  Let me suggest you go to tigerdroppings.com and copy what they have done.  

    Anyway,, when did you write this because it is completely wrong.  Laughably so...lol.
