Here are a couple of tidbits from an LSU fan's perspective for ya...

LSU has plenty of speed rushers to test your OT's.

The Tigers had major injuries on the DL for their early losses to Miss st and Troy. Once the DL was healthy things were very different. ND will not wear this defense down.

LSU's offense is still a work in progress but has improved noticeably . The OL is improved and has less injuries than earlier in the year. They have become a very good 2nd half squad.

Guice is running angry again and our other RB is a sledgehammer.

i know its not an apples to apples comparison, but would you say your defensive front is closer to a Georgia/miami or an NC state/USC?

The only team that I've watched this year is Geo out of those four so I really can't give a good answer to that.

I will say that LSU doesn't have a dominant DL but I do consider them to have a top 20 squad with enough of a rotation that they won't get worn out. We are talking about a 3-4 so the DLinemen really aren't expected to rack up stats. That said, they do their job very well.

The difference makers are really the LBs. LSU has two elite OLBs that often play like 4-3 DEs. They also have one of the best ILBs in the nation. Since the secondary has the ability to man up on receivers, those LBs are often very aggressive and are a huge factor at the LOS.
