:sigh:
Remember when we would kill a small, fast defense like Ole Miss's?

Yeah, I never want to see Stewart flash across the backfield again.

With our QB problems, you'd think that we be all about some power running game this year.

Our o line doesn't have that make his arse quit mentality as previous years. We can't establish power running when we get blown up in the backfield every other play.

It'd be nice to see the I-formation, but alas, we've molded into finesse spread offense that wants to throw it downfield constantly and leave our 240lb RB, who's getting YAC and wearing out the defense, without significant touches.
We're missing past offensive lines and a true FB.

Sometimes wish we would just hire the Stanford OC and have him implement the power I back here. All this talent and size...ughh

Our OL hasn't had that mentality since 2012.

Get a power running OL coach, an OC that builds around the power run and get a big TE to blow frickers off the line. Its easy and we surely know it has worked before.

Plus, long, time consuming drives are the worst enemy to HUNH teams.
I hate what our O has become.

Give me the LSU power toss to the left 5-10 times a game please.

Not that I don't agree with the premise of this thread, but it's funny that you mention a "small fast OM defense" and then post a picture from 2012. The 2012 OM defense pretty much stuffed our power run game.

We won the SEC last year and came within a TD of the NC game-however, I agree that things could have been even better if we would've kept it on the ground more against OSU.

We had them worn out in the 4th. I think it's possible to run more.

I need to rewatch that game. I honestly don't remember that game at all.

That 2012 was extremely physical. It was a tough game and OM made it a game until we got on a little run. Wasn't an easy game but its easy to forget about it.

I remember 2013, but for the life of me I just don't remember 2012. After that I don't remember another Ole Miss game until 2009.

It was a 8:00 game after a few cupcake games and right before an off week. Very forgettable game.
I remember thinking Freeze and OM held their own.
