re: Defensive play calling against Moo State

Giving up only 43 yards rushing on 26 carries (1.7 ypc) is awesome.
Pass defense was good. Easy to criticize the yards given up and number of plays & 1st downs... but considering how much they yielded, they did a fantastic job of tackling the receivers instantly. I don't think Ms. St. had many yards after catch. And they tightened up when Ms. St. would move towards the red zone, too. Also, I don't think the dbs ever got beat long.
Early in game, especially, it was nice to see the blitzing & pressure.
If LSU's offense did a better job sustaining drives in the 2nd half, I think the defense would've seemed outright dominant. As it was, they still looked good-- very good at times.
I think the biggest need for the defense is to work on developing depth-- especially on the front 7-- to keep the players fresh. If the offense starts clicking, that will certainly help.
