Yes, we gave up too many yards.

But we were in the game until the end. Total yards means nothing. He tried to make them drive the length of the field. Yes it was conservative. That's the point. Don't give up big plays - keep it close on the road.

If your offense can't score 24 against that D, your problem is not defense. The D is the only reason we had a shot at winning up until the last drive.

I'd have to say the D hung in and you're right we had a chance to tie it up at the end. Not to mention, the were out of gas after all the lack of drives in the 2nd half

the defense was a bit dis appointing, but if we had an offense Aubarn doesn't score 24.

Watch the game again. They had a lot of big plays on us. He should have made some kind of adjustment and tried to bring 8 or 9 in the box. FORCE THEM TO THROW!

I can't agree with you. The defensive scheme was poor and our offense didn't contribute enough.

There were a number of plays where LSU had "six in the box" and the other five players were too spread out. Was Chavis afraid of Newton's passing and not his running skills? I would have played the run and forced him to pass.

Cam Newton has a 70% completion rate against the blitz. There's a reason he had less than 100 yards passing today.

D was bad, but the o was worse.

This is what I saw. It seemed like we played base defense all night. No blitzing. Never forced them into a passing game. Certainly things would have been better if the Offense could have maintained drives but it just seemed the defensive gameplan was poor.

I breathed a sigh of relief the few times Newton dropped back to pass.

Disagree. The d played bad, but with the game on the line they came up witha 4th down stop.

As bad as the D played, they gave the offense a couple opportunities to take the game and our shitty playcalling blew it.

How, with the game on the line, do the coaches let what happened after the timeout occur.

That's nnot the first, second or third time that has happened under Miles.

Its past time for him to go.

Blitzing would have likely given Cam more yards, believe it or not...they were trying to protect against the long plays...poor tackling and not staying in lanes was the problem on defense... the offense and particularly the play calling , the line and therecievers were pitiful...

Do you people not realize that yes they ran for 400+ yards but only gave up 24 points! Do you realize this same team put up 64 points last week but could not put those numbers up on our SOFT D! Come on man....this is football and it is played on both sides of the ball....offense has been letting us down for the whole season and it will not change until something is done about the QB situation, OC situation and HC, situation...BOTTOM LINE!

I agree in that the defnse was on the field the whole second half getting the ball back to the O ime and time again at the 45 -50 they want three and out
