Needing a football fix while I try to wait for the season to start,I watched the replay.LSU's passing offense was similar to last year's and Mauck threw 3 int.s,one returned for six.And then I remembered how few times Mauck was allowed to throw in the NC game b/c of concerns about interceptions.The running game in 2003 wasn't near as good as 2011.
The D was also similar to 2011 and was bad to the bone.
Anyone else watch and compare to last years team?

Mauck had something like 4 TD's and 12 ints against ranked teams in 2003. He made his stats against unranked teams

D in 2011 far superior IMO to D in 2003.

2003 passing offense light years ahead of 2011 and against OU Mauck completed more passes than Jefferson attempted in most of his games.

Replay of 2003 LSU vs. Ole Miss
Great game. Was lucky enough to be there and the atmosphere was electric. I have no doubt the most raucous that stadium had been since the 60's.
The play that stands out to me was the last, the 4th and 10 when Eli tripped and game over. If you ever watch the replay you will notice that all four of our down linemen just blew up the man in front of them. Awesome. That's why Eli tripped. If he wouldn't have tripped it would not have been long afterward he'd have gone down.
I think in the comparisons between 2003 and 2011 the defenses are a wash. They were both great. And I'd give a slight edge to the offense to the 2003.
Even though Mauck's supposed strength as a game manager who didn't lose games for that you always used to hear, has been exposed here (he turned the ball over alot that year)he actually did make some plays (to Devery in that Ole Miss game, Skyler in the Georgia game) and could run well, better than JJ in fact if you ask me.

That first pass by Mauck was one of the worst throws I'd ever seen.....until I saw Jefferson last year. But Mauck was just okay. The defense and the running game won the championship that year. The passing game COULD have been great with Clayton & Henderson out wide, but Mauck was just an average thrower. Not many people even remember that Mauck began his time at LSU as a safety, though for a very short time.
