I think our D will get torched in SEC play. That being said, I haven't seen great defensive play from any SEC team thus far. If our O-line holds up, I believe we have the offensive fire power to play with anyone in the country.

My concerns about the defense is that, thus far, teams have been able to string several drives a game on us. This used to not be the case with an LSU defense, and certainly we'd be shutting down teams of this caliber (cupcakes). We face some serious offenses in the games ahead


That's been the case almost a decade now. Teams have been able to string drives, we've just been very good at forcing negative plays to stimy their progress before they can do serious damage. We've never been a 3 and out defense.

Sidenote, liked how Corey Thompson looked today. He's looked like shite earlier in the year, but he did a good job of recognizing runs/screens and getting to the running back. Interested to see him in coverage.

My point : bama gave up 500+ yards to bama , Ga defense sucks , auburns , ole piss, etc . However our offense is night and day compared to years prior even during 06 and we run much better schemes than we. Did in 06. If we had the same ole offense I would be extremely concerned . We will not get torched on d we just want be on the same level we were from 10-12
