OSU on their heels a bit. Wisconsin looked pretty good at Minnesota and are continuing their urgency.

It's not novel.

And a strong rushing attack is important to that strong of an offense.

I wasn't being serious. There's nothing novel about LSU's offense other than having a Heisman caliber QB to go with their talent at all the other positions.

Didn't say it was novel. You're making things up like when you said Michigan State 'trucked' Baylor a few years ago.

There's a notion out there that opening up an offense means teams pass non stop when it's not really like that.

And it's been known that LSU revamped their offensive system this season.

MSU basically spotted Baylor 20 points and still won the ball game. Baylor lost because they couldn't stop Michigan State's moribund offense.

LSU doesn't have to pass non-stop but when they do, they do it well, especially with the athletes they have. They have the RBs and OL to be quite balanced and still run the spread. Plus they recruit well on the other side of the ball and that was the biggest difference in the game today. LSU had a much better defense than Georgia and intercepted Fromm twice. Georgia had under 300 yards total offense and this is a team that can move the ball.

Fromm sucks and is vastly overrated. LSU setup to stop the run and Fromm isn't capable of winning on his own.

LSU revamped their offense before this season. Read something other than The Gazette some time. It's not novel, but it's new for them. And I'll repeat--LSU's defense has not been a strength this year.

Such a B1G fan angle...MSU 'spotted' Baylor points? That's why B1G fans are hard to be around.

OSU's defense is evidence that Purdy should have been running more this season.

Couple of things going in the passing game, running game a legit threat, and the defense can't be everywhere.

For all of the things people whine and cry about this season the way that Purdy’s legs were used or how Purdy chose to use his legs (whichever the case may be) is the one thing I can point to that was a major fail.
