With our offense rockin', what's the minimum level our defense can play at for us to win out?

I'll start the bidding at 5 stops (with a FG counted as a half-stop).

Most relevant use of this number in TD history.

Entirely depends on who we are playing. We aren't going to score 40+ points every single game for the rest of year.

Being just 'bad" would be enough. Unfortunately, they are "historically bad".

Just a middle of the road defense would have this team most likely blowing the doors off of every opponent we played so far, with the exception of Florida St.

stops on 50% of drives. And I'm not being picky, I'd consider holding people to FGs 25% of the time as getting a stop.

If any opponent has 3 drives that don't result in any points, I am confident LSU can beat them
