look - we gave up over 400 yards rushing and over 500 yards total offense. That is not good no matter how you try to spin it.

If you watched the game, you saw a very simple Auburn blocking scheme designed to get a man on the MLB and allow Newton room at the 2nd level to get up a head of steam. We never once adjusted to that blocking scheme.

This board is wrong. Where were the obvious needed adjustments on defense? Watch the Iron Bowl to see a real defensive coach scheme great talent. LSU is screwed until they fire this coaching staff.

Sorry but it does make a difference when you let the other team run up and down the field.

Our D was done at the end of that game. No gas left in the tank.

Maybe you were watching a different game. They gave up A LOT of big plays.

I disagree completely. And as it turned out...they had a crap load of plays over 10 yards. They were updating that stat all throughout the game. It was embarrassing.

Yes the offense sucked...but that wasnt supposed to be our strength.

The matchup of the game was their offense against our defense.

Chavis decided to play a passive defense and not take advantage of our athletes in the defensive backfield.

The idea that we couldnt change things up for at least one drive and show 8 men at the LOS look and at least put some pressure on Cam to make plays with his arm is disturbing to say the least.

Our smaller d-line was manhandled and finally wore out. I would have liked to have seen Mingo in their as a LB/DL hybrid roaming along the D-line...making it tough for any dlineman to get doubled.
