DL getting pushed around in a 3-4 alignment. Time for a 4-3?

If we still had Chaisson, no way. With him missing it might be worth trying.

Getting more beef along the D-line would probably help defend the run. Would also eff up UGA game prep, but not possible to implement at this point.

We apparently don’t have enough to play 3 right. And we’re gonna play 4? We suck because of no depth.

I thought we were multiple on defense?

The way to fix it is it play the players you have.

90. 91, 97, 99, 92, 72, 93, and the freshman. And they need to sub within drives. We do this bullshite of playing the same DL and LB the entire drive whether it’s 3 plays or 11.

I see someone mentioned White being out for a drive. That’s what I mean. Because it was “Queen’s” drive we just leave our best football player on the sideline by choice. That was ridiculous.

I really agree with all of this. Throw in Thomas and Cotton for a few plays. Hell throw in Shelvin and Livingston on goal line, lets see what we got.

You can’t just install a new scheme halfway through the season

There’s a lot more too it than just switching to 4-3. IMO playing without a nose is today’s game is just dumb. There’s a reason you see Saban base out of odd fronts. More versatile. Blitzes are more easily disguised. LSU just needs to tackle better. Florida wasn’t running through these huge holes. Guys were there but just didn’t make the plays needed. Outside of not having a pitch player on a few of those options LSU was fine schematically. Some of the young linebackers didn’t fit the right gaps at times but to abandon the odf front would be a mistake.

Our defense hasnt given up more than 21 points in any game this season. No one should be complaining about the defense. We need to score more points.

He basically implements a 4-3 when Chassion is here anyways. It's no different. Aranda is damn sure smart enough to make this happen. The players would be the ones adjusting. He could simplify it where it's not very hard for them to transition. It's just like adding a bigger LB that plays the LOS just like Chassion did. I don't see why it would be all that hard??

But y'all are correct. We just don't have the personell to do it. It's sad that we have players that just don't want to train the way they need to. All the talent in the world and prefer to be lazy. It's amazing. Our NTs could be unstoppable forces if they would just try. It would totally flip this defense. I would give Livingston his shot. Never know his effort and determination might show up on game day. Shelvin is such a disappointment. I really thought that kid would change when he got to college.

Looks like LSU might have to go get a JUCO NT and let him go. We need some real fighters on that DL. We need some rotational guys. Fehoko had a hell of a game in this one though. It looked like he was the only guy giving any real effort. So many times I see our rushers lock arms with the OLman and not move an inch.

I just think they need some rotational guys but we obviously don't have any. Need Stevens and Monroe back in the secondary. I have no idea where Stevens went.
