Etling is a smart kid and makes good decisions, but he has a rag arm. He struggles making NFL throws and to win a national title you better have that or have an abundance of elite skill to make up for it other places.

I just don't think LSUs young D and On-line are good enough to compensate for that in terms of winning a national title.

That isn't a slight. I've said 3 times LSU can have a really really good season, I just don't think they can win 3 straight against elite defenses and win a national title.

I've seen it a few times in this thread. LSU's OL was ranked at the top last year and is going to be better this year imo. We return both tackles, All-SEC and 3 year start Will Clapp slides over to center, and Maea Teuhema returns to guard. Teuhema didn't start last year which baffled fans since he was a freshman All-American.
The only real new piece to this group is redshirt junior Garrett Brumfield.

You said he can't throw into tight windows. That's not his problem.

You added that so no one would use Hurts as a follow up didn't you?

Man you are really going out on a limb here seeing that only one team per year will do this.
