Those defenses were full of KILLERS. Not saying they were unbeatable. But damn those teams were fun. Laron Landry, Glenn Dorsey, Craig Steltz, Ali Highsmith, Tyson Jackson, etc.

I love it.

Some epic games those years. The Arizona State game after Katrina. The Doink Game. Beating the gumps in overtime. Curbstomping The U. Destroying Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl. The last second touchdown against Auburn. Jacob Hester making Tebow cry.

If Pelini stays to form, LSU's defense will be much more aggressive and less zone. That DL will get after some people instead of just eating up blocks.

I have a feeling soon our defense will be feared again.

What sucks about that hit is now it’s considered targeting and he would be ejected.

Still my favorite announcer quote ever on that hit:

Mike Patrick - “Oh man, John Parker Wilson just got ANNHILATED.” *watches replay* “That’s just evil right there.”

Todd Blackledge - “And to add insult to injury, Alabama is called for a holding penalty.”

Mike Patrick - “Well I can tell you they didn’t hold Laron Landry.”

That 2006 team was at least as good as the 2007 team.

One could argue better. That was an unfortunate year for LSU.

Here’s a little nostalgia. Take a look at the 4 man freaking rush, just nasty!

The Arizona State game


Defensive play calling in that game was as pussy as they come.
Then the next game, same thing.

The 2006 team was better. If they didn't play like arse offensively vs Auburn, we play in the SEC championship for a chance at Ohio State. Or don't turn it over a million times the first time against Florida.

Blackledge " He hit Brody Croyle on a play like that last year"

Patrick "I bet Brody still feels it!"

Laron probably is still my favorite Tiger ever.

God he was fun to watch. WRs were literally terrified of him.

I will always remember that Arizona game in 2006. LSU won 45-3 and I think LaRon almost killed Willie Tuitama a couple of times.
