Tech runs the ball greater than 4 times as they pass (600 runs vs 140 pass attempts). They complete just 47% of passes, and have thrown just 5 TD's and had 6 picked off. Obviously, the focus will be on the run, so the linebackers will be kept busy filling holes. I wouldn't too much about the pass.

However, Tech averages 8.1 yards per pass ATTEMPT, which is #21 in the nation. LSU is #71 at 6.7 ypa. So, while we rarely pass, and complete rarely, our average is very high. We throw deep, when we hit, we hit big.
Edit: 14 of 140 attempts have gone for a 25+ yard gain. By comparison 22 of 364 LSU pass attempts have gone for a 25+ yard gain.

Paul Johnson has already started to work on the elements of his run and shoot offense, which he will implement for the bowl game. Stopping the run will not be the only concern for the LSU defense.
