Driskell has never played against LSU or bamas d. They didn't play bama last year, and he was out for the LSU game.

He hasn't seen a defense like he is about to see.


I expect him to try to run away from mingo a few times.

I wouldn't call that struggling.

A team might have more success with a mobile QB, but I wouldn't go as far to say LSU struggles against them.



Isn't that what I said?

Your implication is that LSU has a hard time containing a mobile QB. I just don't see it. McCarron fared well in January. Wilson fared well in 2010. I think balance is tougher than a mobile QB.

Fair enough, I can agree with that. I just don't think most teams traditional running game works well against the LSU d-line, so teams with a mobile quarterback have better odds of achieving that balance. Unless Driskel can break off big run a-la Cam Newton though, I don't see this Florida offense having much success tomorrow afternoon.

I agree.

The LSU d-line will determine what kind of offense Florida puts up. Fortunately, that's a strong point in this team.

I do believe this game is a toss up. If played in Tiger stadium I would give us the edge but our play is just not consistent enough to feel good about a W in such a tough place to play as Florida. There's a good chance this game comes down to the 4th quarter with a mistake by either team dictating the result!

Nice post. The Tigers are capable of dominating pretty fair teams, exemplified by their performance against UW. Even in that game, however, they did not execute well in all phases of the game the way they did most of last season. First reason is they don't have the same personnel. The early departures for the draft as well as the loss of a dozen guys who were there in the spring have left chinks in the armor. Of those dozen guys, 4 starters and a total of 7 were on the two-deep. Nonetheless, they're still good enough to defeat the Gators on the road if they play anywhere near their best. I think they will focus and play their best game of the year. Result- LSU 31- UF 20.

Like I said Idiot, First road game for the young guys, they have now been there. The frick you get hit by the stupid stick?


I think we see a lot less of the younger guys other than secondary. These first few games were for that, guys got to play that normally wouldnt if we had started with Oregon. With that you see a lot of mistakes and penalties. With depth issues there will be less rotation, minus the rbs and dline. which are still stacked.

good post... welcome to the board

Our D is solid, but our weakness is your strength. We are not good at stopping the power straight ahead run. Every team, even Bowling Green, could get 5-6 yards on us.



ultimately, i think this may be your team's demise.. and if that's the case, it could get ugly.. there's nothing more demoralizing than knowing your opponent is going to run it right down your throat and there's nothing you can do about it... we (LSU fans) watched it happen game after game last year, but for some reason, it was always doom and gloom because we weren't throwing for 400 yards a game..

This may helps us because 13 of Miles favorite 15 plays involve the power straight ahead run.

Is it because I'm not blind like you and i see things from a non P@G perspective


Yeah, because 19, our mid-season low last year against Miss. State, was the magic number for the rest of the season with an offense that didn't produce as much as this one. You see it from a greyscale perspective like every other self-purported "realistic" fan here. We had a down game in our QB's first SEC road start. Aside from that, the offense is averaging 39 points a game!

The truth of the matter is, none of us have an educated clue as to what we can expect tomorrow. That actually excites me. It really IS like a season opener.
Preseason and leading up to Game 4, we thought of Florida, SC, and ATM as build-ups to 11/3. After Games 4 & 5-- and with Florida's quick rise (whether warranted or hype)-- no objective person can be confident of what will happen tomorrow.
