I don't understand what is so hard for some to grasp that the DTs play last year was subpar and how that can have an effect on the LBing group behind them.

Last year, ego and freak combined for like 70+ tackles instead of 55+ each. That's what a solid DT group at LSU produces.

I'd like to know how often you think LSU has had a solid group of DTs. Because there's only been about 3 times in the last decade that two DTs have been close to 55 tackles each.

Granted those 3 times were some of the best defensive units ever, but there have been plenty of good defenses in between.
