The 2008 defense was ranked decently as well. It makes you wonder just how bad the poorly ranked defenses are.

LSU's defense is very bad. Being #24 doesn't change that. It doesn't rank situational defense such as 3rd and longs.

We were 32nd in 2008 because we absolutely dominated our non conference opponents. In SEC play we were 10th(11 in ypp). We gave up 100 more yards per game in SEC play that year. We're giving up 180 more yards a game in SEC play this year.

The biggest difference this year is that most other SEC teams have bad defenses. We're actually middle of the pack or towards the top in most defensive categories.

The 2008 defense was in the 80's, the 2009 defense (Chavis first year) was 29, right now we are 24. We can't make plays on defense and we are weak up front, that is our problem.
