Almost a similar situation to the last time we played where LSU was trying to slow down Gordon. It didn't work that well, despite what many said/thought before the game.

So they are repeating what every defensive player has been taught since peewee football

“If we come out technically sound, do our gap responsibilities and everybody executes at a high level, we’re hoping to put ourselves in not a highlight film position,” Wisconsin linebacker Vince Biegel told ESPN.


What a telling quote. Just hoping to night be on a highlight reel.

Perfect test for the tigers and Les who is supposed to be changing his antique offense. The Badgers are good enough on defense to limit LF or Guice to beat us. Will Les be stubborn or will actually try fool someone for once?

Pretty much. Who is the last team that watched the film and said
- "he's a down hill runner don't worry about the edge"
- "arm tackles all day, that's any RBs weakness"
- "one at a time fellas. No need to all go after him at once"

I understand they were asked the questions and had to answer. just getting quotes for an article.

Pretty fair quote by Vince Biegel, though. Wisconsin's defense, which has been a mainstay in the Top-25 for Total Defense over the last several seasons, has always prided itself on disciplined play, which includes limiting penalties and the big play.

Everything is easier said than done when it comes to a player like Leonard Fournette, of course, but not much else Wisconsin players can say.

Yeah, because Les NEVER tries to fool people. Please, stay in Texas.

Sounds like they will stack the box like Bert and Arky did and see if Harris will be good enough to beat them.

Henry ran for 147 yards and 3 TD's vs. Wisconsin last year. I'm sure they had a plan to stop him too lol

Up yours buddy. Listen here I'm from Louisiana baw and damn proud of it. Love my state and my tigers, I want Les to succeed I want him to change his outdated offense and attempt to become more balanced which he has not for the last two years for sure. I'm sure Wisky will study the shite out of the gumps film and Arky and attempt the same type of game plan. Will Les really come up with something different if running at em doesn't work. Questioning that doesn't make me a Les hater.
