I wrote the below post on January 2 before we left for NOLA. I think I was right! I got no discussion on the topic, but as I pray for our country and it’s current struggles, I sure hope I can post more like the below in late summer and early fall...y’all be safe.
Our OLine and it’s effectiveness against LSU... 751 views

I watched a few LSU games yesterday and today...(slow day at the office before everyone gets back to business next week!). Defensively they are fast and aggressive, but not that powerful, and they can get pushed around some. Our run game should be effective at two things...chewing up yards and chewing up clock. If we can have some sustained drives with the expected explosive plays mixed in, we should be successful.
Their three to four receivers are good and get separation, and burrow can get them the ball. Although our defensive back end is strong enough to minimize the explosive plays, but the less chances they get the ball, the less chances they have to score. Our o-line will help with that.
This game will not be a shoot out. It will be decided at the lines. Both teams are hard hitting, fast, aggressive, and are smart. Both can be explosive. But our OLine is better than their DLine. Some will say their OLine is better than our DLine,too. But they HAVE to keep the fast break momentum going or they struggle. We do not. We are creative in the run game with RPOs by a crazy talented QB. The game will slow down by design, and we will win 28-20.
