On offense for lsu it’s runningback. We have 8 guys on the roster, but none of them have taken control of the position

On defense it’s the corner position. The starting spots seemed to be locked up with a third rotating guy showing glimpses. Depth will be an issue with JK Johnson going down indefinitely and Denver Harris looking like not being available.

There will be Harris flames I’m sure but let’s try to keep it down and talk football

Zero concerns on offense. Literally.

On defense, our line play should be really good but linebackers and the secondary are concerns. I do believe our DBs will be much improved though this year.

I haven’t kept up with Tennessee but I believe Heupel will put his players in the best position regardless of talent.

LSU Offense-None because we are STACKED.WAY better than last year.
Defense-Corners are easily the weakest position group.

Offense - OL. Right now, our center is out but is expected back. Still, don't want injuries there.

Defense - DBs. The ones with experience aren't as talented as they need to be. The younger ones have talent but little or no experience.

Offense: Daniels ability to make quick reads and throw downfield

Defense: Secondary talent and depth

Cooper is supposed to be back in time but if he's not then OL does become a concern. But we are well setup at WR and RB. We could use a QB3 but honestly if you're at that point where you're down that far you're going to struggle no matter what.

I don’t see Daniels causing us to lose any game this year. I don’t think there was a loss last year that could be placed on Daniels alone and I see that continuing. If he makes dumb decisions or has injuries we got nuss behind him

How do you feel about rogers being under center now and never ran a play where he had to turn his back on a defense on play action?

Defense- depth at LB

All jokes aside A&M should make a run this year. If y’all simplify the offense y’all have the talent to do well. Just wonder if y’all will spread the ball around or keep with one or two guys like in previous seasons

Offense- QB. Whoever it is, can they make the clutch plays when needed.

Defense- Can we replace Carter's ability with the whole unit. There were several plays where an offense had an open receiver, but he blew the play up just in time. The secondary should be stronger, so there should be less plays to be made downfield. But you can't replace Carter with another player. Have heard some good things about one of our DL having great camps. Stil, won't be Carter.

I’m pretty sure our OC said 90% of our plays are out of the gun, so I don’t feel concerned really at all

ETA: yep, I knew I didn’t make it up: Clarion Ledger

Offense- It's the obvious issue, who is gonna be the QB and how are they gonna perform especially for the Texas game.

Defense- I'm gonna go on a limb and say it's the D-line. We return a wealth of talent there but the pass rush is a big question mark going into the season.

I’ve heard your LT is suspect. With a new OC and suspect offensive line do y’all go with Milton to start the season to transition? Or are y’all gonna roll with your badass runningback group and limit QB touches?

The LT position is definitely a toss up but I'm more comfortable in that than I am at QB. Honestly, the QB is so up in the air it's hard to tell who is gonna be the first guy to start I believe they will go with a run heavy offense for the first few games and try to acclimate the QB more as the season goes on. I feel it's gonna be a lot of play action passes for the first 5 games before we truly go to a more balanced offense.

UGA list:

1: qb - Bennett Is probably the best qb we’ve ever had. I’m not really that concerned, but Beck looked good.

2: Rb - McIntosh was awesome, Milton is always hurt. But I still think we will be fine. Not really that worried.

3. I’m hoping Mike Bobo can handle the amount of weapons he has, with a new starter at QB
