How good is next man up ,Patrick Queen?

Talented. But not ready. Looks lost when in the game.

The good thing is that he's got two weeks to game plan and get reps to prepare for the first half. We just need to stay within striking distance until Devin gets back.

We are replacing a Top 10 NFL pick that’s been calling our defensive plays almost since our DC started. He is not replaceable in a game of this magnitude. Look at the effect losing Phillips for the Gaytor game had and multiply this times a gazillion.

Didn’t someone say last night that the last game we played without #40 was Troy? Remember how our defense looked in that game?

He’s two weeks away.

You will hear him a lot on Nov 3...the day he becomes "the Man"

Then you are naive

I’m going to get downvoted to hell, but here goes. While White is probably the best physical talent LSU has ever had at inside LB, he is weak at reading blocking schemes and reacting. This is probably why Aranda commits White so often to a blitz. It’s to take the decision making away.

If you watch every defensive play of a game you will see White repeatedly caught up in second-level blocking of the offensive line. The 42 yard run by Fitzgerald is a great example. There are numerous examples from the Georgia game. He is still a great linebacker because his physical talent is elite, even for the NFL. When White sees the play he is devastating.

We are a worse team with White on the bench, but I’m not overly worried about it. What concerns me more is: are we going to allow Tua time in the pocket, and can he drop dimes on us like he has been doing all season? Also, our offense has to be consistent in the passing game. When receivers are open Burrow has to hit them, and when the ball is there the receivers have to catch it - every damn time.

Great closing speed but obviously not on Devins level. I want to see more physicality from him when he’s on the field. He’s still young.

Put a spy on tua. Slow our offense down use the clock. Keep bama offense off field long as we can. Make them have fewer plays till second half

there’s no reason to spy tua. He doesn’t have the run first mentality
