Stop the panic.. The Tiger's Defense will stop the running game.. no problem..

This is what the program needs.. a big opportunity to bring home a good win and turn this team around.

The option is SO different than 95% of what you typically prepare for, and only having a week during the season to prepare makes it even tougher. But, we have a month to prepare for nothing but the option. I have faith (I don't really know why ) that we'll have success slowing them down.

But your acting like this is a top 10 team coming to town. Reality is, they are a one dimensional offense and outgunned by LSU at every position on the field.


Being a very big fan of both teams, I can tell you that you are flat out wrong on this one H-Town. GT's D-Line is better than LSU's D-Line. Michael Johnson, Vance Walker, and Darryl Richard will all be likely day 1 picks in April and the other starter, sophomore Derrick Morgan, is at least as good. Jonathan Dwyer >>>>> Charles Scott, Keiland Williams, Richard Murphy. Imagine Scott with just as much power with a little more wiggle and MUCH more speed and you have Dwyer. Morgan Burnett > All of our safetys including Chad Jones. Demaryius Thomas would definitely be a starting WR at LSU this year. Josh Nesbitt > LSU QB, he is like if JJ had played all year long and were a little shiftier. The big advantage LSU has is the offensive line is much much better than GTs. I would also say LSU has significantly better cover corners unless GT gets Jahi Word Daniels back and then it is closer.

I have watched EVERY game both teams have played this year and can say with confindence that I hate this matchup as an LSU fan and love it as a GT fan. You are clueless if you think Paul Johnson is not a good football coach. He knows the flex-bone offense backwards and forwards and makes adjustments on the fly. There is a reason he was able to turn Navy into a consistent bowl team, the guy can flat out coach. At Navy he took over an 0-11 team, had to play D-1A football with no D-1A athletes, and managed to have success. Now he has the athletes. Paul Johnson vs. Malleveto is a mismatch of epic proportions.
