re: From afar, there appears to be something profoundly wrong with the program since the NC.

Did Brady take the playbook with him? I ask because Bama gets a new OC every year, shoot sometimes even before the year ends. Saban refuses to change though. The new OC learns their playbook. "Why would 60 people learn an entirely new system when we already know the system? One guy has to learn what we do, not the other way around."

Despite their clear issues, the offense didn't lose that game. We got 27, left an easy 10 on the field.

An LSU defense should make that enough to win comfortably. Georgia held fricking Clemson to 3. We should be on the same level as Georgia on defense, yearly. We've got 2 stud corners who will make millions in the NFL, and a D Line that's supposed to be strong.

The defense looked completely like shite. Not fooled by schemes, we had linebackers who were not within 10 yds of guys they seemed to know they should cover. We had several attempts at tackles that were totally pathetic... and these were "last line of defense" tackles. Jump on the guy's back and ride him for 20 yds if you have to, but don't dive and miss if you're the only one there.

Find a way to protect the edge on runs. If they're constantly getting outside your ends, then line up a hair wider, and walk the linebackers in some. It's not like they were doing anything in coverage anyway.
