Kiffin has best offense in CFB 

Hes going to be a real problem at LSU in future years

Gerry, Kiffin out you on the payroll or something? I have a hard time believing that after one game against a very overmatched clemson.

What Dabo has done to Clemson is a joke. 2 of the best receivers in the ACC and he chose to trot out Christopher Vizzina at QB.

Doesn't use the portal. Hires retread coordinators.

Now Clemson finds themselves with a coach who won 2 national titles but has the program in the stone ages.

definitely need to see more with LSU but Lane has had a good to great O everywhere he has been. Lsu will get talent on campus on way or another. They state produces very good talent and Lsu recruits nationally, the states passion for Lsu is 2nd to none. Its impressive what they are doing week 1 to a bad Clemson team that will have a hard time making a bowl.

I’d hold off on trying to crown them after one game.

They have multiple NFL picks at WR and DB, Sammy Brown at LB. Couple of DL's will be drafted. 

They aren't void. 

Clemson, Michigan, and Tech are in trouble because they don't have a QB worth a crap. You can have all the talent in the world at WR but without a QB getting them the ball it doesn't matter. Same with aggy as well, their WR group should be really good, but they can only carry Reed so far.

whats your thoughts on Caden and Harlem getting 1 carry each all game? Thought they would be a bigger part of the O.

Tech’s schedulie is so easy not sure it matters.  Clemson is a soft program with a terrible OL.  Clemson has some great dl when we played them in playoffs and we ran the ball over them despite their nfl dl.

Harlem was hurt some of fall camp 

LSU is going with the power run game … Jones is definitely the fit for what they want to do based on the scheme last night

I’m not crowing them. They will lose a game or two … but that was super impressive if we are all going to be honest

If Texas had a new HC and game one with a total new roster put that level of performance on the field … the fan base would be crowning them. Same with USC fan base, or any other fan base. That was super impressive. 

My take away from LSU is they have just as much or more talent than Texas, Miami or USC based on watching those teams the last two days. And they have the best offensive scheme/play calling combo in CFB. It’s why Lane took LSU. And that environment was special last night. 

The SEC is going to beat each other up IMO.

Takeways ...

1. He knows he has a loaded roster.

2. LSU has been playing football a long time ... school record for first downs in a game. 

3. He was real about it. And moving forward.
