Fox Sports' Eubanks on Defense

It's not Tim Tebow, according to Eubanks; it's defense. According to him, we're at a distinct disadvantage:

quote:

The Gators defense is ranked second in the country in points per game (7.3) and third in total yards (212.8). The Tigers don't fare as well. They're 88th in total yards allowed, 81st in rushing defense, and 101st in getting to the quarterback with only five sacks in five games, none in the last three. If those numbers don't improve, it won't matter if Florida has Tim Tebow or Tim Conway taking snaps.


And, according to him, we don't really have a shot. Here he quotes Chavis:

quote:

"You can see on film (Brantley) is a little more fluid on passing than Tim Tebow is," LSU star safety Chad Jones said. "They do run the same type of offense, so I don't think it's going to be much of a difference who plays. They have a great offense and a great coach. We've got to get more pressure on the quarterback. We need it to be difficult for him coming into this environment. It's going to be real hectic. It's going to be our job to have him real rattled for his first start coming at LSU."


Let's hope we prove him wrong.

his total defense stat is wrong and he forgot to mention that we have the most interceptions in the SEC.

so many factors.....on paper it looks impossible. great. better for us.....i don't want any of the analysts to like us, i just want to win.
