re: Just Got Back From Gainesville

I was at the game. I like the stadium. They got some cute girls. Everything was pretty decent except...

The game:
The offense is a work in progress as long as our qb situation is what it is. I wouldn't have minded seeing JJ in, but it wouldn't have mattered. Charles Scott was exposed for his lack of quickness...at least compared to Demps.

The defense was beaten, torn, exhausted. I was about 8 rows up on the LSU sideline, and the guys just looked like they had no idea what hit them at times. We got some swagger in the third, and that was quickly taken out of our sails. The secondary needs serious help...and fast...in defending a spread offense that works well.

Lastly, the big plays thing is killing us. If McCray's tipped pass on UF's third play goes down on the ground, we get the ball back unscathed. All of a sudden, the Swamp is alive and we are down 7-0 forcing the offense to try and click immediately. We had a shot at stopping Tebow in the third down 20-14, and could not. Big plays just destroyed us. Those two really changed the way this game went.
