Imagine if we had one of these sh*tty anemic slow Offenses that just hands the ball off every other play, while dinking & dunking to oblivion...

The most successful season we've had in a decade + is upon us & its because we have an Elite QB who puts that fckin Football IN THE AIR & an OC who ain't afraid to send that sh*t.

THIS is Miami Football; not that "tUfF & fiZZiCuLL!" Bullsh*t tryna be some weak *** Midwestern B1G team.

Not so fast, my friend.

Their first 5 games were:

Georgia Southern
At Texas
Northwestern State
At Vanderbilt
Utah State

Texas went 8-5 that year. Is that schedule really that much harder than ours?

Well, after those five games, LSU played three teams ranked in the top 10 in their next four games. Yes they were SEC games, of course. LSU hosted #7 Florida and #9 Auburn, at Mississippi State, and then at #3 Alabama.

Florida and Alabama both finished 11-2, Auburn 9-4.

And F-$EC.

Were all 5 of those teams .500 or worse? We've played 5 losers.

I was more looking at their entire schedule cs what we have done so far. I would have to assume their numbers were even more ridiculous against the weaker portion of their early schedule and actually came back a bit when competition improved.

Why would they?

Those numbers look great but then look at the rushing statistics for everyone else and the total team numbers. Like I said earlier, Burrow was their second leading rusher. As a team they were very average. Of course, who cares about having a rushing offense in the 60’s when you’re passing for 400 yards a game and scoring almost 50 a game?

Not one time did an opponent totally shut down their passing game and they had to rely on running the ball to win.

They played no one the first 5 games.
Texas was mediocre and finished the year ranked 34th.

5 of their next 10 games were against teams who finished the year ranked in the top-8.
The combined record of those 5 teams, after the LSU loses taken out, was 60-4.
The 2 teams LSU didn't play in the top-8, were beaten by teams that LSU beat .

In fairness, we haven’t played anywhere near the level of competition they did.

That’s not true the only decent team they played in those first games was Texas, which was not that impressive at the time.
