We held OM to its lowest point output at home this year and Vandy to its second lowest.

Look my man, if y'all want to give Baker his flowers for showing up and playing well against Tech, WKU, Southeastern, SC, Florida and OU (all of which suck arse on offense) then have it. And throw in Arkansas with their two wins all season. That's more than half of the schedule FYI.

The glaze some of y'all have for Baker is next level, and I am simply just questioning how we have looked in some games against better competition is all.

Still cherrypicking.

Which teams did better against those three that you continually cherry pick? You keep ducking this question almost as if you realize how stupid you are.

Ole miss averaged 461 a game. Got 480 vs LSU, lsu was 6th best of 8 teams vs ole miss.


Now do points allowed. This defense was amongst the best in the country in creating turnovers and preventing red zone scores. It wasn’t a one-off that they forced Ole Miss into idle drives.

Vandy and A&M were poor performances without Weeks in both games and without Gooden against Vandy. I don’t think you can use A&M as a gauge for any facet of this LSU team other than losing heart in the face of all the negativity surrounding the program.

You do realize that A&M had another drive in the 2nd quarter where they marched down the field and threw a pick at the 3 yard line, right? I guess you can call that a stop.


Wait now you just spun an interception into a negative, because they drove before we got the int?

I was attempting to just take part in discussing your topic. You are just a flat out dumbass though.

Oklahoma played awesome against Tennessee and their defense was the only reason they were in the game.


Oklahoma gave up 27 points and 456 yards to Tennessee and that was awesome, but LSU giving up 24 points and 480 yards to Ole Miss was terrible?

Well obviously that is because Tennessee is the 7th rated scoring offense while Ole Miss is all the way down the list at 11th. You just don't know ball.

Not sure you know the definition of cherry picking

Thanks for the clarification, dipshit.

Of the teams they've played on their schedule, Notre Dame is better than A&M. Auburn sucks and should've beaten A&M. Held them to 16 points. Arkansas had a chance to beat A&M. Texas is better than A&M. Hell South Carolina was up by 28 on A&M. A&M is not a good team.

Alabama and Texas are better than Vanderbilt. Missouri could've beat them.

Ole Miss hasn't played anyone outside of Georgia this entire season my guy. I think OU is better than them. Arkansas and Kentucky almost knocked them off.

None of these teams are elite and all of them could go down. Plenty of teams outside the conference that are better.

Your whole premise for this thread is cherrypicking 3 games and completely ignoring anything else

You are just rambling to ignore the valid points several have made in this thread because you refuse to admit Baker fielded a great defense this year.

So he got beat by our new head coach (that’s why he’s here) and an outlier game. Why don’t we ignore the rest of the games where his defense was shut down and even gave this team a sliver of hope to win. Not to mention on the field in most cases 2/3 of the game.

I don't know if you watched that game but OU had a sack fumble for a TD, two INTs that led to FGs right before the half, and they were just playing the prevent defense at the end of the game when they were up by 9 with less than 2:00 left at 33-24.

Their defense won that game for them.

I am too, but not for this reason.

Blake is an elite defensive coach. He struggles with mobile QBs because everyone does… we look worse against them because they get more snaps against us because the offense can’t stay on the field. And if you give mobile QBs more chances against you, eventually they’ll bust big plays.

However, I trust that Lane will find the guy he needs. And the pool of “good enough” DCs gets a lot deeper when your offense is elite, as I expect Lane will make ours.

Sure, let’s see your list of those teams along with the same level of scrutiny of the strength of the opponents they played. The Big 10 with their 5-7 non-conference record against P4 must be full of teams better than the SEC. Maybe the Big 12 is better with its 0-3 record against the SEC including losses to Miss St and Auburn with their combined 2-14 SEC record. Or maybe the ACC where the 5 teams tied for second had 8 non-conference losses.

You mean making an excuse for a defense that played well against an offense currently in the top 10 in both points per game and total yards that's actually won multiple conference games and is a notoriously tough place to play on the road?? You betcha!

11-1 Ole Miss is a top offense that we played on the road and had a better performance against, yet that game was bad defensively to you

I don’t know if you watched the LSU-Ole Miss game where the defense caused a fumble and had an interception to end promising OM drives and held firm to force a FG in the red zone on another. The defense kept them in the game despite a horrendous showing by the offense. See? You can come up with a positive narrative for the defense’s performance if you don’t start out from the biased perspective that they didn’t play well.

You're doing the exact same thing boss man.

You're cherry picking games against awful offenses in Tech, SELU, WKU, Florida, South Carolina to showcase why the defense is so good, but ignoring how they have played against teams that actually have a good offense.

I answered your question. Not sure you know what a ramble is either. Those teams are better than the three that you asked me about. The fact that you didn't argue against it leads me to believe that you think the same.
