The D is holding offenses to 0 or negative yards on 40% of offensive snaps

I thought Florida's offensive game plan against our defense was pretty good. They really designed around getting the ball out quickly and slipping to running back out to catch passes as a counter to our aggressive pass rush.

Unfortunately for them as soon as they tried to pass for any distance Lagway would throw a pick. But I did think they found some ways to move the ball pretty well at times.

Amazing stuff. You don’t even have to look at the stats to see they are elite.

They swarm to the football, they have a Want to be physical, and they are playing assignment football.

I saw a few plays that would have gone for TDs last yr that were prevented from pursuit and effort.

Watching them tackle after what we’ve seen the last few seasons makes me straight up giddy

Those inside slants and middle screens seemed to be an effective counter to Baker's blitzing. They also seemed to go away from it as the game went on.

I trust Baker to learn and adapt from this game. Even though they played well, they can clean up a few things. Gotta be mindful of the counter to the aggressive blitzes like Florida was doing. They lost track of Baugh a couple times, particularly on the touchdown that was called back. But he slipped down the sideline and got behind everybody.


But you can bet other teams are watching that and our going to incorporate some of the same to counter Bakers aggression. But I trust this group to work on that stuff.

I don’t think they went away from it as much as LSU adjusted and took it away. They never had a counter to our counter.
