You're right about the holding. It's getting ridiculous. And really obvious too.

No quick answer to this question.
First, lots of different forms of a "spread" offense being run. The Spurrier, Tiller, Mumme spread is not like the one that Rich Rod, or Urban Myer runs, or the one T Franklin was trying to run at Auburn.
I fall in line with Saban in where I think regardless of what the offense is trying to do, you disrupt them. Penetration, QB pressure, and physical play on receivers that disrupt their routes stalls drives.
I dont get to see film on LSU, but from what I see live and on TV it looks like they have been abused in certain matchups. Teams are getting a safety covering a receiver and a LB covering a TE too often.
To me this defense looks reactive rather than pro-active

Very well said! Disrupt the timing of the spread and maintain discipline with containment while rushing the QB! A team with VERY fast, physical corners can defend the spread, and I think this is why Patrick Peterson will be All-american and help LSU win the SEC in 2010
Thanks Cracking.

3 down linemen, 2 LBs & 6 DBs, play man up and JAM the WR at the line. This offense is a timing offense, do everything you can to disrupt the timing, including blitzing from every possible position/angle on the field. Zone blitzing with the drop of the appropriate DL to give different looks. Never let the offense feel comfortable. Although, I did appreciate the roll under/over the top zone utilized by LSU in the second half against Troy. Turn out to be quitge effective in the 2nd half. Gooooooooo Tigahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhsss.

first thing:
Get the play call in to the players prior to 3 seconds before the ball is snapped. This waiting until the O lines up and then rushing to call a play is horse$@%#. Wait and reacte defenses don't work in the SEC. Man up, call a play, and live with it.

the spread will never work in the SEC...or maybe in the SEC west as in AU's case...

The amount of time that QB had in the pocket tonight was crazy.
That's true every week. LSU doesn't try to rush the QB.

What LSU did in the second half. Play man coverage and disrupt the timing of the receivers. Most spread pass plays are timing passes. You play 7 or 8 in the secondary or you have really quick Lb's(ali highsmith)Notice where chad jones was playing most of the game. You lineup in one coverage,let the coaches on the sidleine call the play then switch coverage at the snap. You disguise your blitzes and don't telegraph them.Most of all you need guys in the secondary that can cover or at least have speed.It's hard to sack the qb when they are in the gun and throw 3 step but you can blitz and disrupt the timing of the play.
