In some ways they are not wrong.

Ohio State has a good bit better defense than we do. Silly to think otherwise.

However...that ain’t the problem. Against LSU your problem is the offense. LSU puts such pressure on you that the defense is an afterthought. We don’t NEED and elite defense. We need a very good one that can get enough stops on your offense to allow our offense to run away from you.

Nobody has stopped our offense. NOBODY. So...if you are talking Clemson you have to tell us ...why will you stop it when nobody else has?

Exactly what I think, If they come out flatfooted like they did against tOSU, Burrow will already be in his rhythm. You wont run LSU down from behind.
I also couldn't be more proud of our defense, they have gotten better every week. They gave Hurts hell the entire game.

Ok, I get that Clemson fans are going to come up with all the commentary about how they're gonna beat us, etc. But to say LSU is one dimensional on offense this year is about like saying North Korea is a democracy. Any dipshit fricking moron casual observer of college football could look at LSU and tell you that LSU is not one dimensional on offense.

Are you fricking kidding me? People are actually saying this?

Yeah but everyone acts like LSU has a bad defense, but they do not.

LSU had 5 defensive players make 1st or 2nd team All-SEC. They have two All-Americans in the secondary.

They might.

Which means they'll lose by 14

My memory is a little fuzzy, but, relatively speaking, weren't Bama fans about the MOST realistic, thinking they needed to win a shootout with us (and it was close)?

You could say the same about our fans comments on Clemson

You have to forgive the Clemson fans, because they don't know what a good team looks like.

With few exceptions, every member of LSU's 2-deep chart on defense will get a look by an NFL team (even if UFA) and fully 16 (or more) of those 22 defenders will play in the NFL.

If that's a "shite" defense, it will do until a real defense comes along.

Here's one

quote:

Osu really outplayed clemson most of the night and the "better" team may have lost .

Also exposed some things for clemson I know the coaches will exploit . Couldn't be more confident after seeing that game unfold ...Lsu will have to play its worst game of the year to lose this one .


LINK

Many examples in this thread

After a performance like we saw from LSU, its understandable for fans to be super confident. We look unstoppable like a team of destiny.v .

But Clemson did win the NC last year and 2 of the last 3. Their conference may be horrible, but they are recruiting at a high level and are loaded with talent. It won't be an easy game like yesterday

And LSU has been going up against defenses littered with NFL talent: Auburn, Florida, Alabama, Georgia. Auburn gave LSU the most trouble with their defensive line.

..Agree... NOBODY... Saban had 2 weeks to prepare and LSU hung 46... Oklahoma had 3 weeks to prepare and LSU Offense hung 63.... NOBODY will or can figure out how to stop so many weapons LSU has on offense....this game won’t be any different.....

Don't be the contrarian that feels like you need to equalize things by shitting on LSU fans too. We do make some stupid remarks from time to time, but nothing quite as stupid as saying "LSU offense is one dimensional". I mean, come on. Did they even watch one LSU game at all? I watched Clemson all season long, in addition to LSU.

For starters, they're DAMN lucky that UNC chose a shitty 2 point option play to the short side, or else they may not even be in the mix today.

quote:

After a performance like we saw from LSU
Dude it wasn't just yesterday. It has been ALL frickING YEAR. We feel the way we do, because we have seen LSU play across a 14 game sample set, beating 6 top ten ranked teams the whole way. That includes Auburn when they were at their best, on the road at Alabama in a blowout in which the score nowhere near indicated how the game actually was, starting off the season in Austin when they were at the top of their game, UGA same thing, Oklahoma same thing.
quote:

But Clemson did win the NC last year and 2 of the last 3.
And what exactly does that have to do with this year? Nothing.


Again, I get that you're an LSU fan and not the enemy, but please stop with shitting on your own kind so you can equalize things in the argument. We aren't asking for that, and frankly we don't need you to come to the rescue.
