re: From “Money” to “Hippo,” LSU’s defense changing under Kevin Steele

The first thoughts immediately turn to stopping the run & rightfully so. This change should get bigger bodies flowing in the direction of the ball carriers. What seems to be getting overlooked is the different pressure looks that Steele will be able to throw at opposing offenses. This has the smell of being a more confusing, unpredictable defense from a presnap aspect. Opposing offenses won't be able to determine actually where blitzes are coming from for the majority of the time. Expect more pressure, more sacks & more turnovers. I really like the sound of this. It will put the offense on shorter fields at times then they have been over the last 2 seasons.
