I heard Alan Risher express similar bullshite in a radio interview. I assume your "1 good game" comment is referring to the Kentucky game.

Since you somehow seem to be missing Hunter's impact, here are some numbers for you:

Against Mississippi State, Hunter had 6 tackles, a sack, and a fumble recovery for a TD.

Against Auburn, he had 12 tackles. The last time a LSU defensive lineman had that many tackles in a game -- 18 years ago -- Chuck Wiley had 12 vs. Tulane in 1996.

Hunter is #1 in the SEC in tackles among defensive linemen with 46. He is #1 on the team and #4 in the SEC in TFLs with 8.

He also had a sack-fumble in the 2nd game that he wasn't credited for.


Also, the low sack numbers for LSU DEs this year can be partly attributed to the low amount of pass attempts. Among SEC teams, opponents are attempting the fewest amount of passes per game vs. LSU. Opponents are also completing the least amount per game and for the lowest percentage (50.7%).

LSU is #1 in the SEC, and #4 in the NCAA in Passing Yards Allowed Per Game at 156.3.

his ONLY sack....in 8 games... That is terrible for any DE. There are 50 players in the SEC alone with more registered sacks, including some Cornerbacks & safeties.


Tackles for a defensive lineman usually aren't a good thing. It usually means they are chasing plays downfield after the carrier has gained significant yardage.

It's also a testament to how terrible the rest of our defense has been that a DE is leading the team in tackles.

Sorry, I just havent been impressed with anyone on our defense. Jamal Adams lately. People keep saying Kwon is good but he takes bad angles and is a bad open field tackler.

We've played 2 QBS with a pulse this year.

Dak Prescott 15/24 268 yards 2 TDs 0 INT. Ran for another 100 yards, 1 TD

Nick Marshall 14/22 207 yards 2TD 0 INT. Ran for 119 & 2 TDs.


please please please don sit here and act like our pass defense has been good because the numbers bear it. Wisc, ULM, Sam Houston, Florida all have terrible QB play, and Kentucky is below average there.
