re: Two delays of game in a row was next level - even for LSU

I swear that LSU has struggled with delay of game penalties for 20 years now. It's almost endemic to our program.

shitty offensive scheme and the shitty offensive play calling.
We're going to go down another topic here, but I don't know what scheme or playcalling you can do with this OL.
I agree that it will be tough to truly discover our QB behind that sieve of a unit, but you have to at least try.
You must find out how good Van Buren is

First of all, I think he actually does give LSU the best chance to win. If he doesn't it's at least close to a coin flip between the two.
Play MVB. If he's not good, then at least we know. If he can win at least two of the next three and the bowl game, then you know what you have for next year.
Maybe MVB is a starter. Maybe he is a career back up. Maybe he's not cut out and we need to revamp the whole room. It would be criminal to not at least find out what we have.
This year is shot. This isn't Purdue. We are playoffs or bust. We've already busted.

I think he was hurt and had a bad OL which then led to a loss of confidence and mental issues.

Some people absolutely pay off their home.
Let’s play your game though. How are people going to refi their mortgage or sell their home when they haven’t paid any principal because their 50-year mortgage is almost exclusively interest?

QB decision making is atrocious, play calling is flat-out poor, WR/TE play is poor and RB play is poor outside of Berry (though he had the bad fumble last night).
I would argue that if our OL play was 4 out of 10 instead of 1 out of 10, all these problems would suddenly look much less glaring.
I’m not letting anyone off the hook, but one unit is much worse than the others.
Two words … Offensive Line
It’s the offensive line

Yes Nuss has been massively disappointing. Yes the WRs have had drops. Yes the play calling has been suspect. Yes the RBs appear to have trouble finding the holes.
But all of that stems from the worst OL that I have seen at LSU. Porous would a wholly inadequate way to describe this group.
If that unit was just bad and not eye bleedingly terrible, the rest of the crew could have possibly gotten us to the playoffs with two losses.
It doesn’t matter who plays QB or RB or WR. It doesn’t matter who calls the plays. You could bring back Joe Brady and the entire 2019 skill group and LSU would still lose 2-3 games with this line.
They are so bad that I can’t even blame the players. Either they were so poorly evaluated that they should not be at LSU to begin with, or they have had the worst coaching in the country.
I tend to think it’s the latter. Most of us here watch a lot of football. You can’t tell me that based on looks alone that our starting five is that much less athletic and talented than every other team in the SEC. They are woefully coached and prepared.

But, it’s the relative improvement of all classes that is most important.
Are they improving? I am squarely in the 1% and I can’t believe what things cost. I still buy whatever I want, but I don’t understand how most people do it.
Life expectancy is dropping. Fewer people are having children. The price of homes makes them out of reach for most. That’s the standard of living IMO.
We have an entire generation coming out of college that was sold a bill of goods about how to achieve success in life.
I think we are approaching a dire situation.

Id assume the threshold for “rich” will continue to go up and the people in survival mode will be ever increasing
I recently got into a very long and protracted debate on this site about this exact idea.
My premise is that essentially the bottom 50% of the United States is currently the lower class. The 50 to 90 percentile is middle class. The top 10% in the upper middle class. The top one percent is rich. The top .01% ultrarich and where the true power lies.
The size of the lower class will continue to expand in the middle and upper class will continue to be compressed upward. Eventually, you will have the .01%, the 1%, and the other 99%.
I have emphasized to my wife, the importance of using our money to acquire as many assets as possible now, because I think you have to get ahead of what is coming.

You don't need a dual threat. You just need an athlete. Nuss if flat out not athletic with his legs. He does not break tackles are allude defenders, and he looks like a wounded gazelle when he does run.
I'm not sure why people take what people like Ruffino or Josh Pate say to heart. What kind of "inside info" do these people really have? I think there is a lot of throwing shite on the wall followed by Monday morning analysis. Anyone can do that.

More like Auburn has a shite sandwich situation at quarterback.
He can negotiate the contracts with the coaches and agents, but he won’t necessarily be the athletic director that they work for? So basically this title is meaningless.
