re: How would you stop LSU offense?

I hate to say their offense is unstoppable, but when you watch film on them week after week like so many more qualified defensive coordinators and head coaches have, you quickly realize that LSU just has too damn many weapons to defend:

1. a well-coached quarterback with excellent mobility and downfield vision, who, when he tucks it and runs, gets a first down more often than anyone in the nation,
2. 3 pro-style wide outs (and 2 on the bench that could start at most any division 1 university) with outstanding route-running capabilities and hands like a first-round draft pick,
3. a strong tight end with the hands and feet of a wide receiver, and just when you think you can cover 4 downfield receivers who can not just run the deep route, but can also catch short routes and get plenty of yards after the catch, so you put your dime and nickel backs in to contain the downfield pass, LSU then hands to
4. an outstanding running back or checks to him in the flat for a beat-one-man-then-get-into-the-secondary for an attempted open-field tackle by a small nickel or dime back.

Yeah, this is a special year we're watching folks...I wish it wasn't over in January, because there isn't a college defense equipped or coached well enough to stop these 4 weapons.
