LSU looking like they have completely turned it around and it only adds to the quality of the win. Bama will always suck!! Are we that good? I'm saying yes! Our defense is terrible but the offense compliments them very well!! I'll hang up and listen.

We will live and die with our offense. Considering how the rules are today it is the only way to go. Our style of defense is designed to complement a high scoring offense. Get a lead and rush the QB to cause turnovers and get the opposing offense on its heels.

Ole Miss is overrated big time. Auburn had them on the ropes for most of the games and rushed for over 300 yards against Ole Miss. LSU played a good game today but let’s not act like they fixed all there problems over the last week or two. They are a good team when they can control the clock, but when they play a team like UT or Bama they gonna struggle to keep up due to not being able to stretch the ball down the field.
Even though our defense seems bad, it’s not as bad as you may think. When you break down the defense and take a closer look it’s not bad. Our D-Line can rush the QB as well as anyone. And here’s where we stand nationally in some defensive metrics in the country. While our pass defense and total defense isn’t good, they do some things really well which allows us to win close games. It doesn’t matter if you throw for 500 yards if you can’t score when the field shrinks inside the Redzone.

How did LSU look against Ole Miss? Anyone watch the game? Did Kelly stop going for it on 4th down?

Ole Miss was up 17-3 in that game and after that LSU totally obliterated them. Other than our domination, LSU has looked pretty good.

Our defense isn’t that bad he’s right. Willie Martinez and Tim banks are doing a great job with what they have right now on the defense. People just look at the stats.. my biggest thing about our d is they step on when needed and get stops n turnovers when the offense needs it.

Our defense is good enough given our offense. Our defense helped us win that game against Bama with that last stop, keeping Bama from a short field goal or a touchdown. That was huge.

The defense got a stop after Hendon’s INT. Got a stop on first series, got a couple stops in red zone forcing bama to kick FGs & at the end of the game.

LSU and Bama are really good teams that deserve their ranking and all the praise they can get.

But we’re better.
