We're talking strictly natural abilities here. When JFF did take off, LSU got good looks at him. That wasn't the case 90% of the time he did that.

It was obvious by halftime that yalls defensive gameplan was to contain Manziel, and yet we kept calling pass plays and running plays for him. It was confusing, especially because Malena and Michael (our RBs) both got good yardage running up the middle whenever we did give them the ball.

Overall, I'd say that was our OCs worst game of the season. We never adjusted to what you all were doing. That takes nothing away from the job yall did on Manziel though. You all were the only team to make him genuinely uncomfortable (Florida doesn't count; new coach in his first game & fish QB making his first start... nobody wearing Maroon really knew what the hell they were doing in that game).

As for the 2013 game: Miles and Chavis have a defensive machine set up in BR, but this year is really going to try their abilities. 10+ new players in your defensive 2 deep, right? (and most of those 10 were starters?) Our offense should be amazing again (I think there's a high probability that it'll be better than last year's).
