Talking out of my neck? We've all seen it in his first half a season so far.

This LSU offense is short on talent. Outside of RB the rest of the units are avg to below avg. This is the weakest WR group at LSU this millenium. The O-line was already suspect in pass-pro before the injuries. LSU hasn't had a threat at TE in years and we all know the issues at QB.

Way to not address what I posted. The line allowed one sack vs a good USC d line, and has had run blocked very well in all but one game. LSU hasn't consistently thrown to a tightend since 2008, and the receivers have dropped 30 plus balls. My point was that you can't put all of this on Mett. If you do then you are not watching.

Only 1 sack against South Carolina with Clowney and Taylor (and that is because Mett stepped back into the sack when he should have stepped up).

Only 2 against A&M with elite DE Damontre Moore. Yards lost in last two weeks from sacks: 18.

For reference, Bama has given up 4 sacks in the last two weeks against lesser competition (Missouri, Tennessee). So go figure.

Try again. LSU's line has played very well against some elite DEs.
