If you don't think scheme is important you don't know football.

Most teams have gone to the spread...why? Because they don't have the athletes to lineup and run it down a teams throat. They are "scheming" for an advantage.

Now let's look at bamas defense...year in year out they have monsters in their front 7. They are the perfect defense to defend LSU. There is only one hope we have to beat them when we play them and that is for the defense to get 3 n outs or turnovers because our only chance to have success against their defense is to wear them down. Frankly I am not even sure if that is impossible with all their depth.

We are the easiest team to defend against if you have the players...Bama does.

Offenses that have success against Bama spread them out. Hell they even mentioned last night Bama used 2 defense tackles who rarely play because of that.

Scheme is important, yes. But its not the only thing. If you recruit to your strengths then you can keep your brand of football. That is what we are doing right now. We are focusing 100% on recruiting to fit needs on D and O. LSU must have dominant line play to play against Bama. Last night actually proved that once more.

In addition, Grimes needs to change his preparation when we play vs Bama. Our OL did not mentally prepare themselves and Grimes did not have that unit where it needed to be. Granted, IMHO, this is the only egg he and his unit laid all year. They got hit in the mouth and could not get back up to fight back.
