Watching LSU starting off 0-1 per usual. They lined up needing 75 yards with 8 seconds left, so they’re obviously planning on prayers and laterals. They threw a pick, but that’s not the point.
Football requires linemen, but why would you not line up 5 skill players up front rather than guys who will be a liability if they get a lateral? Blocking the dline isn’t relevant. Get the ball out, then have 10 skill players. Hell, why have Nussmeir on the field? Put 11 fast people out there.
I’m not smart enough to have original ideas in football, so tell me where I’m wrong.
