You realy believe LSU is ready to compete with Bama in the trenches? 


Since you know such much on the subject please name the players that will start on Bama O-line and D-line next year. Because LSU sure was able to compete in the trenches the last time Bama played at Tiger Stadium.

At least you're consistent. More than most LSU fans can say.

I was thinking LSU still needs a QB also, meaning one in this recruiting class.

I would add a new Athletic Director would be great also but that is probably asking for a bit too much.

Don't have to name them. They recruit strong in the trenches each year and have proven that that they reload each year. LSU has not recrutied in the trenches like Bama and if you pay attention to recruiting beyond the skill positions you would know that.

It's simple..
We are beat by default most times when we play Bama because of scheme, not skill.
We play a 4-3 set with DEs that are the size of OLB's. Saban plays with DE's that are DT size. So it's just a bad matchup, when you are playing against 5 star DE's that are DT size. They often can't be moved. This is a staple of Sabans front for a while.
Let's not forget Marcus Spears was a DE for Saban.

It's just a mismatch in scheme, not talent.
If Saban had this defense. Godchauex and Herron would be at DE. Pressuring the QB's, and stuffing the run at the same time.

After that 3 game streak, I need your purple cool aid for sure. I also need to see Harris improve big time. It's not just the defense. Remember the OL couldn't block Alabama DL either.

Even the Kool Aid is purple!

Seriously, it's been nothing but huge news since the Tech bowl. NOBODY predicted all this a month ago.

This is the biggest turnaround ever. Ok so, we go ahead and kick Tech's arse in a bowl game.
Beating a 5 loss Big 12 team is a turnaround?

It's inevitable. The mob is fickle brother.

That's why having Aranda now will be exciting to watch. He didn't have that the caliber of recruits and athletes at Wisconsin that he will have here. No disrespect to them...the talent level is just not the same. They lost to both Bama, and LSU. His schemes and game plans will be interesting to see as he structures the defense and tries to expose the mismatches from LSU's side of the ball.

What turnaround, what are you smoking?

We have an AD that wants the Head Coach gone.

After being embarrassed repeatedly on national TV We beat a crappy team in a crappy bowl game.

Les lost the best player in college the Heisman


We do our annual clean up in recruiting but have a coach that can no longer produce a championship team with a wealth of NFL talent.

If we go 15-0 this year it will be the result of superior talent, not coaching. Nick Saban PWNS CLM. And, Johnny Jones can't coach his way out of a paper bag. That win over Kentucky was a fluke, just like the 1972 win over Kentucky by a Press Maravich coached team. Press Maravich was fired 10 days later.
