Oklahoma will be a very difficult match-up for us


Broyles is a huge loss for them.

LSU will roll against either Okie schools.

I am not sure about "roll", but I definitely think we match up better than some of the other choices.

Is why we'll win the SEC and National title.

Is that total scores for the season or just scores when in the redzone? How may visits for each team in the red zone.
So LSU had 35 TD and 10 FG out of how many visits to the redzone?

That's just red zone. Here is the link: LINK

ETA: And to answer your question, LSU scored on 45/46 visits.

So is it safe to say, we're undefeated, #1, and on the brink of another BCSNCG because:

A) Our D is incredible
B) We win the turn-over battle
C) We have exceptional special teams
D) And our O is JUST good enough to score on their own PLUS capitalize on the b) turn-overs and c) special teams field position.

Essentially, our offense is average but scores points due to B) and C)?

Good summary?

I believe our O is better than average... the national stats don't really take into consideration WHO played what teams.

For example --- at least 2 weeks ago .... Bama had #1 scoring D, LSU #3... who was #2... Temple... but do you really think Temple could reasonably compete with LSU, Bama, etc. had they played the same type schedule... I dare say not.

3 phases of the game O, D, and ST.... LSU is good enough in all of them to put the whole package together... which is a winning formula.

It would be really great to dominate on O and D this weekend and just make a statement... we are #1 no doubts.
