Clemson 1, LSU 1
LA Tech 3, LSU 4
Ole Miss 1, LSU 1
Texas A&M 2, LSU 1
McNeese 1, LSU 1
Kentucky 0, LSU 2
MSU 1, LSU 1
Auburn 0, LSU 0
Alabama 0, LSU 2

Yes, we have had a positive turnover margin in ONE game. We are T-92nd in the country in forcing turnovers. If we all agree we can't take the reckless gunslinger out of Sam (who is most successful as a checkdown merchant), we need our defense to start giving possessions back.

I think a big part of it is people really don't throw at our corners all that much

Our defense is typically aggressive - it doesn't make sense. Hopefully we will create more turnovers over the next 3 weeks!

Not to flame, but I'm sure opposing coaches tell their players to take special care of the ball against us. They know our offense will have a few untimely turnovers, and he who wins the turnover battle usually wins the war

not aggressive enough tackling and ball hawking on pass defense.

That shite (turnovers) is a mindset the players need too. You see players all over college and the NFL punching at the ball constantly. I just read a column on ESPN where they were saying the Peanut Punch is working now more than ever before.

shite, did yall see the Bills dude try to intercept a spike?? A spike!

I don't see us going after the ball as often as I'd like. I loved watching the Honey Badger do that time and time again. I want that kind of aggressive defense back.

I think if Spears was healthy, we would have a few more as he was more of the ball hawk to me and if Ty could have stayed at Safety would make a huge difference. We also are missing Weeks speed at LB as Key's is a great run stuffer but bad in coverage. Factor all that in and could possibly have different results and maybe 1 less loss.
