I'm trying to determine if LSU could be headed toward this road under Orgeron.

I'm sure part of this Auburn team's problem was the Loeffler/Van Gorder coordinator combo, which is the worst I've ever heard of on one team.

Malzahn might be overrated as an OC, but he certainly beats the hell out of Loeffler. And I'm inclined to think that Malzahn was better as a playcaller when he wasn't also doubling up as head coach. (Doubling up as OC and head coach might just be too much responsibility.)

Ted Roof was bad as DC, but he was better than Van Gorder.


At LSU, the Scott Linehan hire was nightmarish. I'd venture to say he might prove to be as bad of an OC as Scott Loeffler.

The Pelini hire looks solid, but some people think he's overrated. And I will say that Van Gorder, a Broyles winner at UGA before he left for the Falcons, actually would have seemed like a solid hire when Auburn hired him. Just like Pelini, he was considered a great college DC, but then stopped being a college DC for a while....

The only real answer is "maybe".

Maybe LSU will dive into the realm of mediocrity. Maybe LSU will go 15-0 again. Maybe they'll go 0-12.

No way to really know. I doubt anyone thought that after 2010 Auburn was going to nosedive as badly as they did. A dropoff, sure. But that bad?

I don't think anyone would have predicted an Auburn team go 3-9, with only wins of mid-majors and FCS teams, including the need to go to OT to be LA-Monroe only two years removed from the national championship.

I imagine it must be hard to be an Auburn fan and NOT be on some form of medication.

One of the worst teams in SEC history.

Coach O will not allow LSU to sink that low.

LSU has way to much talent to fall off like Auburn did. Will we have the same year we just had? Most likely not. If Myles Brennan proves to be anywhere close to what Burrow was than we could easily take over the SEC again. We have the best cornerback and wide receiver in the SEC. Loaded everywhere else too.

Much like the 2020 NCAA Tournament, it never happened.

Les Miles almost lost to that Auburn squad, but he ain’t running out that tunnel again. LSU will go 10-2 in 2020 and 15-0 in 2021.
