re: LSU vs Up-Tempo Offenses... Scoreboard

You should worry about our defense if they have to play 80 + snaps again.

I think this is why we saw the change in gameplay. Our offense has quick strike capability and can actually score to fast. I guess theoretically you would rather have the offense on the field a little longer then the defense. I think that is what les was trying to do, but I didn't work. Funny thing is, we have been able to do it for years. Now I see why he did what he did. Still no happy about it, but if they would have executed better it would be marvelous.

It was said on the post-game radio shows. 6-9 SEC football is gone. Don't expect to shutdown opponents like we used to. And I'll chime in we WILL see 80+ plays maybe 2 more time THIS YEAR. But that doesn't have to translate to scoreboard just like vs Auburn, Oregon 2011, and West Virginia 2011. Clemson 2012 would have been a different result had we had THIS offense.

Our defense will still be among the best, just bend your expectations re: stats and look at the scoreboard.

Re: Georgia if we have to rely heavily on LBs for that one I am most concerned. We need DTs to play huge and use edge speed getting Gurly to run East/West. Tre Mason was an explosive accelerator... Gurly isn't quite as quick to top gear... get to him turned before he gets flying.
