re: Question about LSU

Here's an interesting observation by Cam Cameron late into last season:

LSU changed its offense again entering the regular-season finale against Texas A&M, a 23-17 victory. The Tigers used more zone-read keepers for Jennings and a handful of jet sweeps for receiver Travin Dural who had 49 yards on those runs. Jennings ran for 112 yards on nine zone-read keepers.

The offense seemed different than the one LSU showed in the first 11 games. So which one will it be?

“We’re going to be both: underneath the center and in the shotgun. You saw that more in the A&M game. Are we going to be a huge zone read team? I don’t know, but the threat of the zone read helps you in so many ways,” Cameron said. “It’s a little bit of a balancing act for us because we do believe in some traditional things, and a guy like Leonard (Fournette) benefits from those traditional thoughts where we can put him 7-8 yards behind the quarterback and let him run down hill on people. We’re going to continue to do that. Mesh those two things together.”
