re: Defense - I'm going to keep it real simple

Ohio state and Clemson play offensive juggernauts each week.

I get it, but come on man. Vandy and Ole Miss? It's not just our fans that see the problem. Stevens said "We lose this game (OM) if it wasn't for Burrow."

Peter Burns of ESPN on SECN:

There is ZERO doubt that LSU deserves to be #1 in the CFB Playoff.

4 Top 10 wins, Heisman winner and an incredible offense....they deserve it.

But their defense is a liability and I'd take Ohio State and/or Clemson in a game right now

How long can Joe Burrow continue to carry this defense?

Burrow has covered for this defense several times this season. And it looks like he’ll have to do it some more.

Maybe the Texas game was an aberration.

Maybe the Vanderbilt game was nit-picking.

The first half against Florida didn’t matter because of the second half against Florida.

The Alabama game didn’t matter because when you beat Alabama after eight straight losses nothing else matters.

But Ole Miss?

Ole freakin’ Miss?

Yeah, LSU won Saturday in Oxford and won fairly easily, 58-37.

But this one doesn’t get dismissed as easily as Alabama or Texas or Florida. Not even Vanderbilt.

Ole Miss had 614 yards. Ole Miss ran for 402 yards.
