LSU didn’t rush for much, but Max put up much better numbers in limited action against Elko than Mond did against Bo Pelini. Max had better than 50% comp per with a TD and over 100 yds in a quarter or so of play. Mond had around 33 % comp per.
To my point , when Les had elite and experienced O lines, LSU did not struggle offensively. If anything they masked the schematic problem. B Harris throws for less than 50%, no big deal bc we rushed for almost 300 yds. When Les did not have the experience at O line or quite as much talent, the schematic weakness magnified. Jimbo’s offense will struggle this year without the o line experience. Frankly, y’all had the best O line run blocking in the NCAA last year. I don’t see 4 new guys performing to that level in this league. New QB. New O line. New receivers (for the most part). Same Jimbo schematic and plays from when he coached here.

Lol, So Max was able to get some yardage on a garbage time drive with A&M up 20-0 and LSU scored with under a minute and you think that indicates how the A&M D sucks and LSU is a great offense? Mond had a bad game against LSU but in the end all he had to do was hand the ball off and it worked. LSU didn't do anything offensively until A&M went into prevent at the end.
A&M played a more conservative O last year because we could. We won our last 7 games by double digits by running the ball, making conservative passes, and winning the 4th Quarter. Mond was a game manager. It drove Ags crazy (and if you listen to Jimbo it bothered him as well) that Mond would almost always check down off the deep ball even if he had a 1 on 1 matchup with a step to go for the shorter pass. It worked because it kept the turnovers low and the D was stacked. Haynes King is definitely not Mond. He's going to take shots and make a lot of plays with his feet. The question is can he take care of the football.
Elko is the man though and if you hear recruits talk he is consistently brought up as part of why they love A&M. I'm happy to see us pay the man.
