No, 14 is the total number of 1st downs LSU has given up on 3rd down plays.
LSU has given up 9 first downs on 3rd and 7+ yards, all on passing plays. Opponents have been in a 3rd & 7+ yard position 29 times (23 passing attempts, 6 rushing attempts).
That's a 31% success rate against LSU on 3rd and 7+ yards.
I'm no dawg fan, but since they are your next opponent, I looked them up as well. They've given up 9 1st downs on 44 attempts where the situation was 3rd & 7+ yards. That's a 19% success rate.
By comparison, Florida (my team) has given up 4 out of 31 attempts, a 13% success rate for their opponents in this situation. I wish that I could say this is all because of Florida's defense, but UF's opponents have dropped an amazing number of 3rd and long passes when no defender was close to them.
