The guy that stepped in as a backup the last two years and was tied for 4th in the conference in tackles last year, and currently 2nd on the team in tackles this year is way too small and not quick enough?
He’s fine against the run when it’s straight at him, but he gets beat to the edge routinely by anyone with anything resembling speed. That is just a physical limitation he has and you saw it on two critical plays in the Bama game where he was just too slow to the edge.

I still find it shocking, with their track record of being offensive gurus, that Kiffin and Weis have struggled with this.
It wasn’t as bad early in the season because we could dial up Green and we had the threat of Leavitt’s legs. Then Green went down and we struggled to score late in the Ole Myth game. Then Leavitt got hurt and we really became limited in the red zone.
I know both are back, but they aren’t 100%. You can tell Green isn’t quite all the way back and he still seems to have a snap limit.
Add to this the fact that Mothershed and Grace, neither of whom is a standout, are the only other big targets we have besides Green. Go look at Ole Myth’s last two offenses and even this year- they love tall, rangy, fast WRs on the outside and at least one big, physical WR outside of the TEs (more like Green but maybe a little smaller) and then big, versatile TEs that can block and catch.
We are missing a lot of what Kiffin and Weiss would ideally go after at WR and TE, and I’m sure that’s because of limited time they had to overhaul most of the offense. They can tamper ahead of time this offseason and won’t have as many players to replace, so that should allow us to spend to get what they want to fill the roles we are missing. Hopefully that and improvement on the OL will fix a lot of those issues.

Dillon jones is a Monster, but let’s be real here, the offensive line isn’t good. Almost all of his yards have come from after contact, hence is why is said jones would be a Heisman contender with a decent OL
That has only been correct vs UK and Bama. But here’s the thing to look back at in this game. We actually ran effectively getting Jones downhill. We had a few nice runs out of the pistol where we had a little more movement up front and Green reaching the LOS with momentum. The toss for the TD was another such play.
The staff needs to lean into that in the next two games vs very good DLs. Use the pistol and attack the edge more, even if that means mixing in some jets or misdirection. Also use Sam with a TE and Jones leading for a numbers advantage.

I apologize. Alabama scored 31 by accident
Last I checked, the DL didn’t blow a read that gave up Bama’s one big pass play. That was Cooley. They didn’t give up the punt return that gift-wrapped the next score. They also didn’t go for it at our own 25 and basically end the game.
Are you really this ignorant? My fault- I forgot who I’m talking to here.
quote:
It goes Seaton, Moore, then a massive drop off.
You are objectively incorrect. It’s been Seaton by far and away. Then Davis most games. Then Moore, who has played very poorly at times considering his experience level, especially run blocking. Then Bah. Then Sat.

This year? Absolutely. There may be multiple 9-3 teams that get in the way this season is going. Texas and UT would be two great wins and losing to UK, OM and especially Bama won’t hurt us terribly with the committee. Bama is a lock to get in now and UK still has a good opportunity.
Not having a “bad loss” would be a positive when so many in the potential field will by the end of the season.

You’re a dumbass if you think Weston Davis is even average. I’m watching the film breakdown by Carter. A few plays in he goes “this is another bad game by Davis. I mean it’s diabolically bad”
Yet he still had the best grade on the OL and we couldn’t block a 4 man rush at the end without him. The fact is, while he still needs to improve, Davis is the most improved OL over last season by far and has probably been the 2nd most dependable OL in most of the games this season.
quote:
Which then, for the "it's year 1" crowd, puts you right back with a lot of new players. That's the fallacy of "it's only year 1". EVERY year is year 1 to varying degrees.
Wrong. Most of the portal players brought in last year have multiple years to play. We replaced all of the offensive 2 deep but 4 players in the offseason. We are not going to see the entire offense replaced like that again.
We currently have 18 OL on the roster. 15 of the 18 are eligible to return. Seaton will leave for the draft, so we have 14 coming back. I’m sure a few will be moved on, but there are at 8-10 who will be back. We will have at least 2 commits, but probably another 1 or 2 between now and signing day.
Last year we had to pick from guys who entered the portal in the normal flow looking for more money or a chance to play. With a full recruiting cycle, there will be an opportunity for Glasscock and the staff to go out and tamper to bring in more proven guys. If we are going to use the portal and spend big on the OL, that is the better way to go.
Like most of the players we shed after last season, he can’t get off the bench for a middling ACC team. What does that tell you?

It sure didn’t turn into much yardage production.
Us not getting Russell on the ground while he either bailed them out of negative plays or made positive ones set up the ending where they were able to explode and take control of the game.
Those negative plays killed Bama on the road at UT. Russell built momentum through the game without this Saturday and was ready to roll when we handed them the ball deep in our territory twice.

Alabama handled them without too much trouble. They did get no help from Leavitt again but they are not as advertised
You are a casual fool if you believe this DL is bad. Bama ran for only 79 yards on 2.7 per carry frickhead. And that’s without Reliford and Anderson.
quote:
In today’s college football every year is “Year 1”. The college rosters turnover every single season. There is no program building. There is team constructing for one season. Then you do it all over again. It’s just a lower level of the NFL now.
More opinion that you masquerade as fact. The top P4 programs are paying a premium to retain their best players, especially QBs and players on the two lines. There is a reason there’s not some glut of star defensive and offensive linemen every year in the fricking portal. They aren’t leaving unless they are backups or there’s a coaching change. They’re being fricking paid to stay where they are. That’s not constant whole roster turnover. That’s replacing backups with portal and recruiting.
Look at Georgia. They use the portal about as little as anyone in the SEC. They depend on recruiting and use NIL for retention. They supplement very lightly with the portal. They are not turning over their roster every fricking year. That’s why they’re so damn good. Ohio State, bama, in Miami, are doing the same fricking thing. How can you not see this?
Now go back and look at Lane Kiffin’s career at Ole Miss. While he used the portal extensively, go look at the roster turnover. There wasn’t a ton every year. He and Glasscock became known for looking for portal players that had multiple years to play so that they weren’t having to turn over the roster every year. They used the portal as an extension of recruiting. And if you look at their first portal class here, the majority of the players still have multiple years of eligibility.
quote:
Alabama had similar success running the ball. LSU stoned them all game long, yet they won easily.
They held up in pass protection far better than our offensive line did, especially after Davis went down. With their starting center back, they did not struggle and give up sacks the way they did at UT.
quote:
With very little coming in the red zone. Our QB played poorly. He could not convert at critical times, which has been his MO this season. We have had three close games (Bama didn’t end close, but it was close after three quarters), and in all three he looked bad at money time. When the game hung in the balance he did poorly - in all three.
He doesn’t exist in a vacuum. The entire offense played poorly in those stretches, especially the offensive line. The wide receivers not getting open is also a big fricking problem and has been all year.
I’m not saying Leavitt is blameless, but he can only do so much if both of those units are also struggling at the same time. All three need to be better.
quote:
LSU needed to absolute gut all the waste in the coaching and put that money to use in players on the field. Instead they doubled down on it.
There has never been the level of parity that we have right now across the top of the P4 in the history of college football. Ever. If coaching didn’t matter, Oregon would have a couple of titles today. Texas would have at least one under Sark. Georgia, which is spending less on its roster than at least five or six other teams in the SEC, would be sinking instead of the number one team in the fricking nation and looking like the deepest and best team using recruiting and retention over the portal.
If you think coaching doesn’t matter today, then you don’t know ball. It has never mattered more than right now. The argument about coaching salaries is completely separate. We just started revenue sharing and direct payments to players. Over time, there will probably be a market reaction that drives coaching salaries down, even for the top coaches.
However, that hasn’t happened yet. That’s likely going to take years to really take hold. We couldn’t take that fricking chance right now and make a risky hire just to save a few fricking dollars. We aren’t Florida state. We aren’t as financially restricted and bound by a cheap ACC TV contract.
quote:
Meanwhile Ole Miss did better with $10M less and a high school stadium.
It’s baffling how casual some of you who pretend to follow this sport are.
Did Ole Miss replace all but four players on the 2 deep of their offense in one offseason? No, they poured $35 million on top of a roster with a star quarterback and running back for the same fricking results that we have right now.
And for anyone who thinks shedding all those players on offense was a mistake, go look at how those players have all performed elsewhere. Especially those who are playing in the SEC. We’re talking about 3 to 5 players that we might actually miss this year after a complete offensive overhaul.

As far as bailing rather quickly, he listed about five things that he disagreed with that have happened since the 70s and the only thing that you have to offer is to call him a bandwagon fan. You are the prime example of what the LSU fan base has become. Low IQ people with an idiotic viewpoint, but absolutely no suggestion on how to bring back the game day experience.
Go look at the title of this thread. When the OP stupidly lays things at the feet of the new head coach when they are things he’s not directly dealing with and have been in place for a while, he’s going to rightfully get drug for being a ridiculous drama queen.
In reality, all of that is window dressing bullshite to try and cobble together an argument for bailing out nine games into year one. He made it clear who and what he’s really bitching about in the title.

Lane loves mobile QBs and I think he over estimated his ability to figure out the throwing / long yardage how to m do that at this point in the season
You should pay better attention. He flat out said before the season that downfield passing was going to be a challenge because of how many smaller receivers we have. He telegraphed that the offense would look different than what he and Weiss ran at Ole Miss last year. And now it turns out that most of those smaller receivers can’t get separation on their own. Only Harris has really made that true step forward.
Lane and Wise probably thought they would be able to use Green to help scheme things open downfield, but he’s been out, and he’s obviously still not 100%, even though he’s back.
Leavitt is inconsistent, but the REAL limiting factors are the interior of the OL and the WRs not being able to beat coverage for intermediate and long throws. No QB can be successful throwing to WRs who are covered up.
frick off and find another team then. Some of you schizophrenic frickheads who twist in the wind just like political moderates are a fricking joke. Less than a season and you’re ready to fire and would rather be right than see this come together.
It’s year one. As disappointing as this weekend was, we are undoubtedly better off than we were at this time last year. If you debate that, then you are one clueless motherfricker. Casual beyond redemption. Not worth fricking talking to. There is not a single aspect of the team that isn’t better off today. It sucks that we had to pay such a high price, but most of that falls on Kelly. When you shed over 50 players and only 3-5 are playing well enough that you might miss them, that should tell you all to need to know.
We still need a lot of improvement and expectations will obviously be higher next year. But if you don’t have the stomach for this, go the frick away and find something else to do with your time. If this is all you’ve got, then you aren’t built for college football today.
