Time of possession:

Now do the first half

Now look at ole miss’s typical TOP. Before this game they were getting dominated in TOP. 3 and out Nuss killed us. Can’t create anything.

Defense was winded right after Ole Miss made their first first down.

Maybe it was because of it being their first day game this year, but they looked slow and weak. Like they have never played under the sun.

Offense is abysmal and we have zero solutions from lifeless BK.

And how many plays LSUs defense was on the field.

Ole Miss was playing super-uptempo making the defense basically having to play that entire 32 minutes.

LSU on the other hand will take the play clock down under 5 most plays.

LSU’s defense was worn out by the end of the game.

Im not a sports analyst but the offense was out there a few long drives. And halftime occurred.

It falls on the offense clearly. But the defense didn’t hold up that well.

They would have been massively helped by a competent offense, but that will not be forthcoming.

That doesn't tell the whole story. 50-60 plays in one half is a lot. It's like when a pitcher throws 40 pitches in an inning. That many in that short of a time frame is a lot. The long 5-8 minute drives drains you a lot more. There was no rest. Ironically we gained most of our TOP during our pathetic "hurry up" offense at the end of the game

This was balanced off in the second half when our defense made several consecutive stops and our "hurry up" drive consumed a mind-bogglin six minutes late fourth.
