I'm sorry but I don't think this group, as a collective, is this historically bad. Yes, I know what the stats say, but with a half decent coaching staff, they would not be this bad. There is way too much talent there. We have solid guys at each level. Yes, we are lacking in the secondary, but with a pressure scheme or something somewhat creative, they could be middle-third defense in CFB.

We need something like what happened in 2021 when the DC was fired and we ran the Cover Zero scheme with great success. I know we ran one play out of Cover Zero last night and we actually stopped them on 4th down with pressure. One of the few times all year we did it.

I just refuse to believe these guys are that bad. Convince me they are. I'm begging someone to.

70% blue chip rate on D including 3 5* and a couple more top 100 players
If you go by recruiting rankings the D is more talented than the Offense

Ain't no way they shouldn't be at least a top 50 defense

So the coaching IS worse than I thought.

We are about to waste what will be another historical offense with this garbage. If a decent coach was here and had them in the top 50, LSU is likely unbeaten today.

Don't get me started on how bad this guy is in the second half. It is almost like they tell the defense in the second half to just take the rest of the game off.
