In today's game those with great success have solid performing QB's. It has always been true but even more important today. Lawrence leaves Clemson and look at them now, they had all their eggs in one basket and he certainly isn't a Lawrence. LSU had one phenomenal season with Burrow and now the coach sucks, everything is in disarray. Secondary to having a great QB is having and OL that will give him protection. We have a legitimate QB now, I hope we concentrate on building a solid OL. As a matter of fact, our QB room is in great shape, I hope our fans consider this when suddenly an Ogeron and Swinney are on their hot seats even with a plethora of 5 stars.

As pointed out in another thread by someone else utilizing Bama as an example, a strong O-line is possibly more important than the best QB in the nation. Give an above average or better QB 5+ seconds to stand untouched, they will all pick you apart.
Clemson's problem right now, their new QB has no time to throw before folks are on him.

This used to be true with Bamas earlier championships. Not so much anymore. What makes Bama keep it rolling now is QB play they used to win with average QB and elite o-line. They now have 5 star QBs to boot.

Exactly - Too many jokers that don't get it, that don't understand the grass isn't always greener. There are some cons but overall as a program, way more pros and the right direction.

Manny needs one more year, but needs to hire D coordinator. He's not a good enough coach to handle dual responsibility.

The coaching at LSU sucked b4 Burrow. They got lucky they had an oc with an nfl playbook...considering they have had high nfl skill positions on offense for YEARS and couldnt do anything

-Clemson has had MULTIPLE qbs other than Lawrence perform well in Dabo's gimmick scheme...not sure whats there problem this year on offense as i havent watched much of them...but I wouldnt bet on the qb being the main issue.
