re: "John Chavis is LSU's shutdown Coordinator" (The Tennessean)

I do have one small complaint. The past 2 times we played Alabama at LSU, we had a lead in both games with just 1-2 minutes to go and for some reason the defense goes from attack to back off. The CB's normally play up on the receivers and they instead give the WR's of Bama a 5-7 yrd cushion. We have seen them march down the field twice now to win the game in the first one, then this year they tied the game and we went into overtime.

Not just Bama either, but for some reason we don't close on D when we absolutely need to in tight tight games...

I am not just trying to blame the Chief or our D by no means, absolutely not. I love the way he brings D together, but either the players can't close, or the coaching can't close, or its a combo of both. They all seem to play timid as if not to make mistakes, when we owned them all game on D. Trust me I don't put this all on our D. We would not be in some of these positions if we only had better O play as well.

Anyway done ranting. I love LSU. I love the Chief, Cam, and Les.

But this next year we will have no excuses. Our O better produce and be balanced!!!

and Buga nation!!!
