LSU Shatters Records In 58-37 Victory At Ole Miss

All the more reason to stay in your gap and not to crash inside with no run support behind you. You don't want any runner in the secondary. Period.

He was for 3 quarters of the game

This is about records that were set and you bring up what our DC needs to be doing....... !?

Yah they did, LSU sucks on defense

Letting a qb run for three long TDs has nothing to do with more scoring opportunities, it has to do with poor scheming by Aranda. And if you think we are bitching, let's see your response when Ohio State beats us 48 to 45.

High tempo offense had zero to do with our defense giving up so much rush yards to the same play again and again. Our guys weren’t worn out. Ole Miss wasn’t going on long wearing scoring drives. They scored faster than LSU did. If anyone was worn out it was OM defense. Our coach didn’t have the correct players playing on defense and was out schemed buy Rich Rod. Period. I’m not complaining at all. I’m stating facts and if people don’t like that then you are the little girls. Defense is about being sound, playing hard and having your players in a position to make plays. LSU did none of that in the second half when Rich Rod made his adjustments and started taking it to our edges. We have the correct personnel to handle this type of offense but didn’t use them. Brooks and Delpit could have played near the LOS to eliminate much of these yards. Play Monroe or Lewis or one of the corners in the cover 1 safety spot bc they couldn’t pass to save their lives. We could have had two or three tacklers in the backfield with our DLman and made it 1st/2nd and long all night. Our DL would get penetration but didn’t have the speed to get to their ball carriers. Our linebackers and safeties were out of position bc they were in a huge disadvantage in space with these quick cut type of carriers. That’s basically it.

It is a different era of LSU football. When you offense can put up 40+ a game, you don’t have to have the best defense in the country. You are winning football games and undisputed #1 team in the country. Enjoy the ride instead of finding something to complain about.

A question for you down voters. Dave Aranda makes 2.5 million dollars per year and is the highest paid assistant coach in the country. If you don't hold him accountable for the defensive performance this year then who is responsible? How bad does the LSU defense have to be for you Aranda lovers realize there is a problem?

I'm tired of "high tempo offense gives other team more scoring opportunities" crap. This is about Aranda and his play calling. Everyone knew this qb doesn't pass well, but runs like 4.4 40. Yet how many times did you see Aranda put a fast spy on him? Same for his 3rd and long calls all season or his stupid press man call at the end of the Alabama game. His calls will get us rolled by Ohio State or Clemson unless he evolves asap.

Got lots better competition ahead for Lsu. I would like to see them fix their defensive problems

The year Mettenberger had over 3k passing yards our D sucked as well

Yeah 3k passer, two 1k receivers and a 1k rb. People seem to forget about that year

Yeah, the defense was awesome. More like totally pathetic. How much are we paying this Clown "Aranda"?

You’re probably one that fought for les miles to stay to the very end. Some of us know football and can see trends starting early. Some of us just want full utilization of talent. Dave’s a good coach but I think it’s time to find a great one to match the talent of the athletes and the rest off the coaching staff. The fans AND players deserve it. If LSU doesn’t do something soon enough, our defensive recruiting WILL be affected. Remember how long it’s been since we had a great QB? I’d rather that not be the case for the defense in the near future. Ya. our offense yet again played so well our defense wasn’t hardly needed in the second half.. but don’t overlook the fact the #1 team in the country was outscored in the second half by a unranked Ole Miss team that Is one dimensional and has hardly begun rebuilding.

The "no injuries" part is really nice considering how yesterday played out in other games.
