huh?
hell no.


that was 40 years ago

different time man. we played a 3-4 front then. very vanilla ball then.

hardly no blitzing. you are comparing apples to watermelons.

a better comparison would be to saban and willie B in 2003

pellini in 05, 06 or 07

chavis in 2011

aranda 2019

sabana and pellini had attacking D

chavis and aranda were more bend but don't break.

They were physical but as stated above, not a lot to it. Very smash mouth,

Yea, controlling the middle of the field like his teams did. Bennefield, Weeks and Dottery are so good you can run a lot games up front. Every time Clemson got it blocked and created a crease one of those 3 closed it fast.

Ansparger’s defense was not like last Saturday night. Ever. He was an alleged defensive genius. But, his defensive scheme would let good teams march down the field until they reached our 40ish yard line and then tighten up. So whenever the ball was turned over on downs, LSU was inevitably in bad field position. He was good, but …

No way ,Arnspargers D wasn’t bend but don’t break,Bakers is aggressive and doesn’t want to give up any yards.Arnspargers D wasn’t as prone to give up big plays,whereas BB s D because of blitzing can be more suseptable to over the top plays.
