For all the great stuff you could say about LSU last week, this matchup brought back a lot of questions. We see the glass half empty side from those who felt LSU would not have a good season this year.

If you are a top 25 team with SEC championship dreams, an FCS should not be within 200 yards of you in total offense, much less 100 when the horn sounds. Take away the hail mary and that stat is almost even.

LSU DL was dominant as they should have been.

I thought Burrow looked fine. His problem were the guys around him.

Your Oline looked overmatched at times by an FCS school. Once Burrow was either sacked or pressured into an incompletion on 3 consecutive downs.

How legit is this team? Question still to be answered. Guess we'll see Saturday.

LSU is somewhere between not sucking and not great.

Every piece of this team is legit minus the Oline...missing three starters and it shows big time. Our LT will be back this game, not for sure on the other two. Other than the Oline, this is a pretty damn good team. ST/D/Kicking game have looked extremely well coached and we have not turned the ball over once. I think this will be a competitive game with AU, but have to give them the edge in JH. Looking forward to it

O line couldn't block and burrow held the ball too long. Need shorter routes and more screens to help the oline

We got up 17-0 and literally just fell asleep, it was awful. Whole lot of not really caring on the offensive side of the football. Now the OL was in total disarray with a bunch of new faces (We get Charles back at LT next weekend) but still, it was a plain bad product against an outmatched team. Should have won at least 45-0 if they put in above minimal effort, that goes with the coaching staff too. What's sad is 1 of our whopping 4 TDs came on a hail mary at the end of the 1st half

Even if you took away a play, which you dont, LSU had SE LA at like negative yards for the entire 1st half.

It 100% looked like shite the second half, but our guys just were walking around. Not into it and we shut her down again in the second half.

I dont know why the coaches are doing this or not in their arse, but it is what it is.

With Miami the week before and AU next week, I expected some less than motivated play. But not that much.

We threw 3 passes the entire 2nd half, I really fricking hate when the coaches think there's nothing else to work on in a blowout and just shut things down. This is an entirely new offense with new personnel and are playing like meh, nothing to work on let's just run the clock out.

Wait, I thought it was Auburn can't lose!!

Which is a funny statement since you have lost 8 of the last 11.

Defense did what they were supposed to. The offensive line got beat, not just on one or two plays, but all freaking game. Our passing game has no routes to neutralize a pass rush. It's almost like our offensive coaches don't know what a blitz is.

When you are dominant you don't have to try to run up the score. It just happens. We were about as vanilla as could be in our opener. Granted, haven't seen you guys saying you're top 5 this year.

I just thought you'd handle them better.

But if you're just toying with them out of respect, why throw a hail mary at the end of the half?

LSU wins in an ugly squeaker: 21-20.

The Rant will melt down the next day as usual.

It was only 17-0 and we were at their like 40 yard line with a few seconds left, if we didn't try and put up points at the end of that 1st half there might have been 20 in the stands by the start of the 3rd Q. Just a too long for a FG but close enough to chuck it into the end zone situation so they tried it out

LSU fans for years now have complained about a lack of jump balls thrown. We have 4 scholarship WRs who are listed at 6'4 or taller, and we never use that height to our advantage. The guy who got the TD is lsted at 6'7.
