I can't recall ANY, but I'm sure there must have been at least one or two?

Yeah... technically right, I guess.

At any rate, the downfield coverage has been as good as I can ever remember.

Downfield coverage has been great.

It's the mid range coverage in the last 2 minutes of each half that causes problems.

I can remember at least two:

(1) Last pass against Bama that resulted in a TD;

(2) Against SC, the QB rolled right, stopped, and fired it deep down the left sideline. Two LSU defenders missed the ball, allowing the reception down to the two. Lattimore scored shortly thereafter.

Good recall.

I remember one busted coverage against Idaho for a touchdown, but I don't believe it was 20+ yards.

Im thinking this is a defensive play calling issue. We cover consistently most of the game but get sliced at the halfway marks? I think maybe we are being more conservative during those drives.

I remember one in particular to Alabama's Yeldon.

There was the 80-yd TD given up to North Texas, of all teams.

According to the box scores, there has been at least 1 20-yd pass given up in every single game but one...


Florida.

You're spoiling the fun. I'm living in my LSU bubble.
