re: Advocate: LSU Still Running Into Problems

quote:

The five missed sacks on one play exemplified how much LSU struggled to tackle Nix. Then on the next drive, Auburn faced another fourth-and-2 with a minute left in the first half. LSU covered every route. Nix scrambled out of the pocket. Three defensive linemen chased him 20 yards behind the line of scrimmage.

Means absolutely nothing if you can't get to him.
I appreciate the greats before like Spears & Tyson Jackson.

But I miss having superior LB play. You have to contain a QB like Nix.
Having Queen, White, Phillips, Stevens in coverage and that TE doesn't go streaking for a fluke TD.
Instead, Clark, our supposed "best" LB is playing man on a RB chasing him downfield, while Strong is running around shedding off blocks.

Our DE's just couldn't get it done and Farrell and Evans were basically non-existent.

Can't wait till the days of O thinking he has 4 Warren Sapps are gone.
