If the defense continues to look the way it did against Mississippi State then we’re bound for another SECCG appearance.

Fair. But it was only a few years ago that Bo Pelini’s defense made some pretty bad offenses look all-world. There’s something to be said for a defense doing exactly what they’re supposed to do.

Pelini played with a prehistoric playbook and mindset. Air raid torched us easily. Put any other DC in there and we win every time.

Actually not that bad. 2019 defense wasn’t very good either.

I think the defense is a whole lot better than the first game.

This. It wasn’t a sloppy defensive performance (outside of garbage time) where we won because State just couldn’t execute on offense. The defense took everything away and dominated them. Any time you dominate an SEC team on the road it’s a good sign.

The other positives going forward are:

- Harris is looking like a legit starting SEC CB and that’s a big help to the secondary. It’s also a huge change over what we could play vs FSU.

- Perkins is now in a more comfortable position and role and is back to causing issues for the QB. That’s huge.

- Whit Weeks looked legit and brings speed and instincts we need at ILB. We also need depth there if Perkins isn’t playing inside anymore, so Weeks being ready to go now is big.

- Lots of young guys got a lot of time the last two weeks. Thats important when one of your OOC games is a tough one like FSU. And even if we get a solid lead vs Army, their style tends to shorten the game.

Get Brooks and Speights back, continue to develop the young guys and stay healthy and this defense should continue to improve.

And Florida State is 3rd and undefeated, LSU is 14th. That all important first game of the season makes a big difference in perception.

.....and as you know, perception is reality. Those 'cream puff' first games play a big part in helping a team settle down,timing, etc.

Anyway, LSU will do okay.

The offense scored so quickly that the defense was always grabbing their helmets and heading back out into the field.

Those defensive stats are so skewed. We scored so much and so fast they were always running back onto the field and we would go up so much the starters would be out at half.

That defense was talented as frick and if we needed them to win a game, they would’ve been fine.

Disrespectful to compare the 2.

19' D had playmakers, who made plays on their way to winning all 15 games against a lot of good teams.

That won’t stay there for long. I think Matt House figured out his personnel. They will have their hands full, though. KJ Jefferson is a tough QB to handle when he plays well.
