Cocktail Party - Perspective Check

I think UAT is worried about LSU. And I think the Tigers -- if they will tackle and protect the ball can and will win.

Ranters:

I have not posted in a long time, and maybe I should give it a rest, but I feel the need to Rant a little and that is why it is here, right?

Realities of this LSU team:
1) QB play is young, inconsistent, and flashy -- sometimes flashing good, sometimes bad, but flashy.
2) Defense has tackled poorly from the get go.
3) DL has underperformed - 72 really was that good it seems.
4) Defensive schema have seemed confused and error prone.
5) OL is really solid.
6) WR drop too many balls.
7) RB's play 5 deep.
8) 7 is going to be great.

Reality about QB play --
1) This QB situation was set in motion when 11-PR was dismissed from team. That decision guaranteed some rough play this year. I would argue Les was right in doing it, but it cost.
2) 12 is developing, but still shows youth.

Reality about the season:
1) LSU has won two SEC road games.
2) LSU has plowed through non conference schedule.
3) LSU will finish season with 8 or 9 wins, minimum. But can sweep.
4) UGA and UF can be summed up -- they have NFL-caliber, experienced QB's. Our QB's are not either, yet. Much of NCAAFB comes down to QB play. Just watch and you'll see it. When 11 left it was a blow.
5) Overstatement - the turnowvers have killed LSU and are the main culprit for the lopsided lossed. The other -- poor, poor, tackling.
6) Did you see the UGA - UF score? 39 points? Only proves the point that turnovers kill and even great QB's have a bad day.

I think UAT is worried about LSU. And I think the Tigers -- if they will tackle and protect the ball can and will win.
