LSU FOOTBALL Running QB

Nuss’s reluctance to run the ball has been discussed

A QB who can keep the drive going is a major asset . Almost every team had a QB willing to extend plays

Likewise defending a non running QB ais a lot easier

Question for the board …why is he running so seldom He’s the least running LSU QB in my memory

Does he have more trust in his arm
Does he fear injury

LSU FOOTBALL Some interesting 2023 & 2024 LSU line of scrimmage stats

gents & Tina, got some nice stats for us to soak in. These are 2023 totals and 2024 through 6 games.

Our defense is improved across the board and we are doing it with several young guys who will be around for a few years hopefully.

Offensive line is doing freaking great. If Nuss could start running a few times a game, we could have something special. Geaux Tigers

Good to great….

Gents, what say ye?

Take our running game up a notch and continue to improve in the secondary and we can be in the mix for a playoff spot. Only one more loss the rest of the season and we are in.

We have elite players on offense at QB, RB, OL and WR/TE. OL has to improve run blocking.

On defense we have elite players at DE and LB. Z Alexander looks like he’s quickly getting there.
