I think we can all agree that DT play will be improved this year. And loston was a great leader and definetly made a receiver think twice about catching a ball over the middle, but he was a liability in coverage, so think we upgraded again. And while I think Barrow could be our biggest loss on D, our LB core is gonna be good and deep. I expect a very very good defense, possibly best in the west

Similar Wisconsin fan: I think we can all agree our defensive front seven will be improved this year.

Frick no, we can't all agree. I'm praying it's true. But Ego and AJ kept QT and CT on the bench last year. Surely they've improved, but enough to be better? As good?

I suspect that defensive line play will be slightly better than last year. We were thin at tackle and our ends lost contain quite a few times early in the year, but that got better. Hopefully that is fixed. A little better depth will improve things at tackle, even if the starters are not quite as talented (not making that claim, just trying to be objective)as last season. Overall, the defense should be better, mainly because the defensive backfield will be much better than what we started with last season.

But I agree with the comment that no one other than a coach knows the ins and outs of LSU like a die hard LSU fan. At this point, talking heads are just trying to attract attention. What they say now is for the most part of no real value. They will make more sense as the season progresses.
