Best stat for #LSU’s defense?

The Top 5 QBs they faced:

Lawrence: 18-37, 234, 0 TD
Hurts: 15-31, 217, 0 TD, 1 INT
Fromm: 20-42, 225, 1 TD, 2 INT
Love: 15-30, 130, 0 TD, 3 INT
Tua: 21-40, 418, 4 TD, 1 INT

Tua was only one to complete more than 50% or have more than 1 TD pass

we gave up at least 2 massive bombs over the top against TUA, beyond those plays, we held him in check most of the game

This stat offers evidence that this team played up to its opponent's levels when called upon to do so.

That one at the end of the game was inexcusable

this team was awaken to its vulnerability with Plumblee ..
had that no occurred, we may likely have stumbled along the way.
It forced better, more aggressive execution by our D....
they stopped riding the "leads" created by the O.

No defense against the perfect pass. When you have 3 NFL receivers and an accurate QB, you're gonna make some plays (See: LSU vs Clemson)

Why didn't Shea include Ehlinger's stats?

Is Ehlinger not elite? Because personally I think him, Tua and Lawrence were easily the best 3 QBs we faced.

The D stepped up when it mattered. They were awesome.
