Baylor would destroy LSU. Something like 56-24.

YES they have better athletes than LSU. They have PLAYMAKERS. LSU does not.

Athletes or Coaching? What makes the difference? And, it isn't schedule. LSU wouldn't be scoring 60+ ppg in the Big 12 this year.


No, they just have pretty good atheletes in general compared to most. Terrance Williams who plays for the Cowboys, is having a OROY type season. Then you have RG3 and this year Seastrunk, and Tevin Reese is just as fast and explosive as Williams. They get some good recruits and they have been getting better ones and in the hunt for better ones in the past few years. They'll be the Oregon of the south within 2 years' time.

You have not watched their defense against a team with a pulse have you? Baker Mayfield just returned for his second game after being out four. threw for 314 yards and 4 TDs. Mayfield is a true freshman walk on btw. They also ran for 134. Baylor has looked great because they have played nobody with a defense and this is the 3rd time somebody has put at least 25 on them and third time somebody has put at least 34 on them.

The play OKst next and that will be the first true test of the season.

Stop acting like lsu's defense is pathetic. It isn' what we are used to but we are no where near horrible.

Baylor is putting more and more guys in the NFL. Their current team is loaded with NFL talent. They're fast and physically ripped.

It's terrible. Against SEC competition, LSU is allowing over 400 ypg.

Probably doesn't have the athletes but they have better ball playes and play makers, and utilize their talent better.

Even defensively I see their guys with less talent working harder and playing smarter. They don't have the athletes but get more out of what they have, and have better "gamers."

Sorry, LSU's defense is really bad. When a stop needs to be made, LSU cannot make it.

Their athletes seem to be better ballplayers, just not as athletically gifted.

Desire, awareness, intelligence.

I agree with this. Although I think coaching has a lot to do with the second part as well.

What? Our receivers are probably all destined as high draft picks, possibly first round. Seriously think before you talk. Cameron is a better Coach than Briles.

yep, those stats and rankings are flawed without a doubt. The person posting that is the same type of guy that can only post Less' win percentage but not tell you about the patsies on the schedule or that it is not a 11 game season but a 13 game season or tell you what his record is against top 5 and top 10 teams.

No.
Neither does ole miss, Alabama, auburn, Uga, or tex am.

Difference is the coaches of those football teams have their guys coached up ready to play.
Ours don't.

Swagger, Lsu has lost it after the Bama blow out a couple years ago. Just not any fire left.
