LSU shut them down after the first possession of the second half. A light switch kicked on and our Run D showed up making ALOT of tackles at the line or behind it!

It wasnt simply that a "light switched on"....its bc of coaching adjustments relative to the opposing scheme and the strengths and weaknesses, therein. Its not some magical circumstance that makes players do well or not

I dont get when people say if they didnt stop running on us....

Wisconsin was getting in the second level of our D in the first half on alot of the running plays. We fixed that at half and hit them early!

Exactly, Wisc was running a lot of power football that LSU just manned up and put the stop on. They would run one or two TE's, run a man in motion and run the ball to the motion direction. LSU started stuffing these in the second half an also started containing the ends as well as the backside to guard against the cutback.

If you take away the two big mistake plays on the jet sweep and the MG run up the middle then Wisc only has 200 yds offense. On the jest sweep Kwon and Daneille screwed up and went the same way and left a gaping hole.

All in all Wisc started passing because LSU started putting them "behind the chains" in second a long and third and long.

After the 63yd play to open the half Wisc's ypc went to complete shite including Gordon's. He ran the ball three more times for one yard net gain.
