Noel Mazzone is one of the top three offensive coordinators in the SEC, a league that has the best defenses in the country. Our worst offensive moments this year were when our starting QB and left tackle were injured and therefore not playing. The only offense that is definitively better is Kiffin's offense, and Kiffin's offense is loaded with 5 stars.

Mazzone was third in scoring and yards. We are scoring over a touchdown more a game than we did last year. We broke the 400 yard mark in nine games this year and the 500 yard mark four times this year. Also, our offense was more effective against LSU's defense than any other team that LSU played. We scored 39 on LSU. If our defense shows up at all, we win it. Alabama was close, but the talent gap won. This was our best offensive year since Johnny. For having a really inexperienced offensive line and a grad transfer QB under center, these stats are pretty damn good.

Although we were upset at the time of the hire, Sumlin made the best hire he could have made. Mazzone isn't going anywhere so lets support him! Keep up the good work, coach. Gig'em.

I respectfully disagree that he is any good, but I will support him, b/c he is what we are stuck with.

We could have Urban Myer or Nick Saban as our OC and people on Texags would still be complaining. Especially for a guy in his first year in the SEC, you cannot expect him to be perfect. There are ZERO perfect coaches.

Mazzone's first year in the SEC - WRONG!

Scored the most against LSU - after they let up from the blowout and put 2nd and 3rd teamers in!

How many of the 400-500 yard games were against UTSA, PVA&M, and other cupcakes?

When the game is close and we need to control the clock, keep the competitions offense off the field, and make 1st downs... Mazzone failed repeatedly!

Did the defense fail as well-- OH YES! It is a team game, all facets failed under Sumlin!!!

Why do we punt so much? Like, lead the league in punting?

No imagination whatsoever to his offense.

For like the 3rd year on the trot people on texags think scoring garbage points when the game has been decided is evidence of a good offense.

We are scoring over 7 points more per game than we did last year. Our offense looked great against every team we play except for Bama. We didn't pad our stats in games like UTSA where we only scored 23. Actually, we have not been scoring trash time points due to our lack of a killer instinct. If anything, we could have done even better.

anyone who uses points scored vs. an LSU team that was embarrassing the Ags 34-10 in the 3rd before they stopped trying as evidence to support an argument should not be taken seriously.

Not true. LSU fans are pissed at how we carved up their defense. They were definitely still trying and Orgeron was still going full speed until the end of the game. Every LSU football fan I know was very disappointed with their defensive showing in that game.

Is true. LSU fans are happy at how we carved up their defense when the game was over. They were definitely still trying and Orgeron was still going full speed until the end of the game. Every LSU football fan I know was very happy with their defensive showing in that game.

still waiting to hear why our vaunted offense punts so much?

Because we had a pass completion percentage of 50% for the year. That's a knock on Trevor and our receivers. Not much could be done about Trevor, but I think we can all agree it's about time for Moorehead to go.

He did pretty good with a QB that couldn't hit the broadside of a barn.

I liked how he would have a WR run toward the sideline, catch a pass behind the LoS, and then get tackled for a loss.

Gotta keep the passing % over 45%

I find you people amazing who think that changing coordinators like sweat socks is going to solve the problem.

Jim Turner took a HORRENDOUS offensive line situation, and turned it into something that is "almost serviceable" at its best and very bad at its worst.

On the line this year we had very young, not very talented of players. Mazzone and Turner worked very hard to try and get something that resembles an adequate attempt at offense.

Last year: ZERO BLOCKING ON ANY RUN OR PASS PLAY. TOTAL FAILURE

This year: We're better at run blocking than pass blocking, but still depends on effective zone read action and execution. Pass blocking is only going to last 1.5 to 2 seconds at best, so we do a quick pass, or a quick deep chunk to Reynolds on the sidelines. There is no time for deeper routes to develop that take 3 - 4 seconds of quality blocking.

Mazzone and Turner worked very hard with the tools they had..... But you can't ignore offensive line recruiting for 3 years and then wonder why your offense stinks.....

Are you saying our defense stopped trying at halftime?

There's a difference between scoring and scoring when you need to. We can score... but what does it matter if we can't when we're down

This.

LSU knew they were going to score on every possession. Game was over at half..

Correction...game was over after kickoff.

Exactly which games besides lsu did we score touchdowns in garbage time? It was pretty clear Mazzone went to what he thought would work best with an inefficient passing game and an average offensive line. You gotta have the personnel for a system. I guess we all will blame him for 2 elite qb's transferring out and getting behind on the recruiting scene for OL? We did fine given what we had on offense. I thought our offense would suck big time this year and it didn't. That's progress...
