This. I roll my eyes every time. He was doing it when we were down 17-0 to Ole Miss.

Hate to pile on, but this annoys the crap out of me as well. Do your job, dance later.

Those two have been told they were special for way too long. Now they think they're just gonna skate into the NFL, and what sucks is they are probably right. But it's something we might need to pay attention to in recruiting in the future. All these guys that have been being told they were going to the NFL since they were in middle school... maybe not the best fit for what we're looking to do here. We want a line that acts like an LSU D Line. Monsters. Guys that will not allow themselves to be dominated because that shite doesn't exist in their world. They dominate. Anything else is unacceptable.

Our DEs can be blocked straight up, allowing teams to double team Freak. Ego is decent enough. If we could get some pressure from the outside Freak could be more productive.




Can't believe it took 9 responses for the world renowned double teams to be mentioned

As thin as we are a D line, you'd think one wouldn't want to waste energy.

Yep. Let's just hope they make a bigger name for themselves Sat. night and they can get to McCarron a few times.

Correct. He sucks so bad that there isn't a person on this board that wouldn't be ecstatic if he chose to come back for his senior year. but they do need to step it up. However, it isn't all on He and Ego.

why did he stop there? could have named any two lb's, any two cb's and any two safety's and he would have been correct. we have hit a spot where we have nothing elite on defense. maybe that is what the supposedly other SEC coach who supposedly said LSU is in decline supposedly meant. at this point all I expect is 100% effort and no quit. we do that, get a couple of breaks and play solid offense and we could very well walk out of tuscaloosa with a signature win and a week off to get ready for Manziel and co.

get better, get ready...get even.

I hope they realize the difference in a strong showing Saturday night in Tuscaloosa and just welfaring in on their physical stats.

So far, they ain't done the work to justify the paycheck they think they have coming.

This is their interview.

Ace this and be a multimillionaire.

Don't... and well, go hang out with Sam Montgomery I guess.

If it takes being called out by an ESPN analyst 10 weeks into the season to step it up than there are issues

True, this is the game to get the name up in the draft. The talent is there, just have to do it.

The bottom line is saban out coaches , recrutes better players and then he gets the best out of them. les is either too stupid or to hard headed or to soft to beat saban!

D-line has been weak. Palmer says it's time for them to step up.

I think they just aren't very talented...or our coaches have done a terrible time motivating them.

I will be pissed if they come out and play like we all thought they could.

Agree, because he is obviously the best we have!! If he bolts for the NFL we will be left with something less talented.

Our DL and LB's need more experience, (and a LOT less celebrating/"Paul Bunyaning!!!)

+1...but 2 plays a game is a stretch...2 difference making plays all year would be more accurate.
