Our OL, DL and LB are hot garbage.


Due to scheme and coaching. We have one of the most talented teams in football and are staring at 5-7 or 6-6 season in the face.

Our OL wasn't even as bad outside of #74. We could run the ball and only struggled when they pinned their ears back because they knew our QB struggled with the deep ball.

If we had a better gameplan on defense we wouldn't start so many games in a hole playing catch-up with QBs (Milroe, Ty) who suck at that.

When I see one set of eyes in the wrong place I think undisciplined player. When I see 3 and 4 and 5 players every snap against a team that basically ran four plays all day, looking the wrong way, hesitant, reacting not attacking, that’s says unprepared. That says our play call does not match what the offense is showing us. That says we did a terrible job scouting the opponent. I could have done without the Smith and Jackson penalties. Even still, that’s coaching too. These kids aren’t the 2016 kids but they weren’t slow. They didn’t get blown off the ball. We got outschemed with a 15 year old scheme that our coaches somehow didn’t see coming.

He’ll we weren’t even getting the playcall in until the snap, often times a second before the snap

The complaint last year was “Womack takes too long with calls” and right now it looks like all that talk of fixing it never happened

Yep, there are plenty more problems.
This is Shane Lee, Trey Depriest level of shitty inside backer play.
And we don’t set an edge at all, in any way shape or form

It drove me insane when we lost contain over and over and over all game long. That on top of the incredibly sloppy tackling, poor pursuit angles, busted coverages, and just lack of preparedness.

I think the problem goes way beyond CKW. Freddie Roach, LB coaches Chuck Morell and Christian Robinson and O line coach Chris Kapilovic all need to go. All this talent and literally no development.
Exactly. Roach hasn’t exactly done a stellar job, but somehow keeps his job.

Also, our S&C is trash. I think Formby was on the sidelines puking early in the game (may be unrelated), and the rest of the team just looks and acts soft.

Exactly.

It's not even that hard to understand. We had the same issue last year. Poor gameplan, start the game looking like we have no clue abd have never seen film of the opponent and need half-time to make adjustments but still fall short

Finebaum actually started his show with a live interview with Brian Kelly talking about how LSU’s staff calmly made in-game adjustments Saturday to fix some things they were doing wrong and adapt to some things Clemson was doing well.

Novel concept, isn’t it?

BK got a good win, but I’m not gonna pretend he was the reason.
