Brah, just to fill you in, all top tier teams rotate 20/25 players during the game. I know UO hasn't been in the top tier but a year or two, but LSU has been doing this for years.
and you keep talking about all these homers on here, but you haven't brought one fact to the table about your team. At least bison comes off as someone who follows football.

The only thing that I will say in his defense Nico is that Oregon probably faced 200 more snaps. Our 25 man rotation got to face more snaps.

Edited: 963 vs. 822 or 141 snaps or about 2 1/3 games.

Yall sure are obsessed with that gimmick EA sports offense arent yall. I thought it was just yalls coach that was pretentious now I know its yalls whole fanbase....Listen we run the ball and control the TOP in the south. Auburn did the same. A good penetrating defense gets yall straight back in the huddle. Auburn did it Cal did it. Therese nothing that great about yalls offense.

I dunno, our O sucked awfully hard last year. Our D was on the field a lot, so they probably got to see plenty of snaps.

You should have never tried to defend him. Once again, our defense isn't going against your defense. They can be more experienced than ours, and still be man handled by our offense.

We will never run the power I. We don't want an oline going 314 across. Think Florida oline in recent years. I think the ESPN blogger for the SEC did a run down on oline size and Florida's seem to come in smaller.

You're going to have to come harder than that, grasshopper. Now run back to Google and search for more trite southern/Louisiana jokes.

The biggest difference is sec players are actually strong and fast; not just 1. LSU will own the trenches.

I think you might be overthinking this weight thing. There will be a lot of other facts at play here. Example--the following is from the Oregon paper Registar-Guard a couple of days ago:

"Offensive line coach Steve Greatwood answered one of Oregon’s biggest questions entering the 2011 season when he said after Thursday’s final workout of fall camp that redshirt freshman Hroniss Grasu had won the job to start at center.

Grasu will have to do it against a stout defensive front from the mighty Southeastern Conference
It’s a daunting challenge for anyone — and especially so for a redshirt freshman who has never played a down of college football"

This could be a very long night for Mr. Grasu, me thinks. I'm sure the D-line will be licking their chops!!

Wrong...

Some ducks are strong... and some ducks are fast. But NONE of them are strong AND fast. The whole LSU team is STRONG AND FAST

You idiot. Your talking about a team who was far better than LSU last year, but according to you, their best athlete isn't up to par with any of ours.

Overall, LSU definitely has a better defense than AU. Fairly was dominant last year he made every single player around him better. LSU's defense right now has several potential All-American candidates starting. AU had a absolutely horrible secondary last year. Their backers and secondary just wasn't that great. One reason nobody is giving them respect this year.
