Watched the ark/BYU game. by the end of the game, their two starting OT were out of the game. BYU gave KJ jefferson no time whatsoever, and it showed how average KJ really is from a passing standpoint. After the game, sam pittman mentioned how multiple starting OL have injured hands, and have them casted up which has prevented their guys from being able to grab opposing DLs. If their OL is still this banged up, and their 2 starting tackles aren't 100% this should be a very tough game for the hogs.

KJ is beyond average as a passer, and honestly doesn't scare me much with his legs. He's going to be tough to tackle, but I don't see him making explosive plays with his legs. He will have a few 10 yard carries for first downs but that's really it IMO.

WRs don't scare me much either, and rocket sanders is banged up as well

45-14 LSU

If we cover the edges and force him inside we will win

Good callout on OL. I would disagree on KJ. He is streaky as a passer and a pretty good runner. Let's hope we get to him and he has one of his poor days as a passer. I want to crush them Saturday.

Don't you get the feeling Perkins is just going to go all Parsons?

It will be interesting to see if Rocket Sanders plays or not.

There is no way he can have a worse day passing than Rodgers did at MS St. Rodgers was horrible!!

The key will be to put scoring pressure on them with the offense to force them to throw the ball. They want to protect their line with the run but didn't have that option, with BYU putting 38 on the board.

It'll be huge if Sanders doesn't play.

It doesn't matter what you fail to cover. If LSU loses this game, Kelly should be fired.

They don't want KJ running unless it becomes an absolute necessity. The conservative nature of our offense means we are not winning many games this year.

Arkansas got cheap and wouldn't negotitate with Briles and brought back Dan Enos as OC. He's horrible. This guy was on Bielema's staff. He's so bad Chad Morris wouldn't retain him.

I have a real strong feeling 4 and 18 are about to have career games.

Hyperbole, but really, this is should be a cake walk for LSU.

People have been pointing out the OL since Game 1 and the "well we won" crowd just ignored it. BYU opened a lot of eyes.

LSU is definite front runner in the West. Bama will lose again this weekend.

This is traditionally my least favorite game of the year due to me living in NWA and married into a Razorback family.

NEVER underestimate the hate Arkansas has for LSU. Expect a dog fight and just hope we win. (Would love a blowout so I can talk a ton of shite I have been saving up)

Jefferson's success will be all about the amount of pressure he gets from LSU. If we can continue to get better on disguising our pass rush and our DE's do not allow RB's or QB to get outside of them, I see LSU having another improving defensive effort. We have to keep addressing our weaknesses on defense. Weeks was an upgrade.

Arkansas is a conundrum. Even watching the game Saturday they would look like a completely different team from 1 drive to the next.

I've noticed KJ unenthusiastically going out of bounds early and leaving 3-4 yards on the field too.

To me, he seems like he's just ready to get through this year and stay healthy for the NFL
