Nah you're looking at stats and claiming you saw the whole game. I just saw two QB hurries back to back on Tech's 2nd drive. He missed one throw and completed the other with heat in his face.

Ehlinger must be contained in the pocket with pressure up the middle. LSU wins if this happens.
Go ahead and stunt! There will be a price to pay out of the gun.

They don’t have a beast pass rusher like Chaisson and they have suspect CBs

If they come off the ends like that all night, Burrow may run for 100+ yards.

So...Texas plays a base 3-3-5 defense. We can expect them to play press man, crowd the box, and either blitz DB's off the edge or bring one or more LB's on most plays.
If we generate any creases in the run game - something we've always been able to do, and/or our receivers can get off the bump, the Horns are toast.

Yeah, pretty much a 3-3-5 base. Will also run a 3-2-6, and have a 1-2-8 (cowboy) package for 3rd and long. Due to the spread offenses that the Big12 utilizes on a weekly basis, Orlando has opted to field as many “hybrid” players as he can find.

LSU is going to destroy Texas. Mark my words.
38-17.

I watched most on and off between commercials and followed most highlights and listened to postgame with Ricky and their group. No one was that impressed honestly don’t give a shite what the score was. There will be two different teams out there Saturday.

You must not watch much Texas football. Orlando's D doesn't rely heavily on the Dline much to sack the QB...The Dline in his defense is primarily to pressure the QB out of the pocket, stuff the run, and contain a running QB. The majority of the QB sacks come from the safeties and linebackers on Disguised blitzes... They got plenty of those guys that can get to the QB fast...
I will agree with you that at least one of the corner positions is suspect...

UT had 450 yrds offense, LaTech had 420 yds
LaTech passed 59 times, UT, one sack

Your first point is exactly what O said, and really the most important part of this game. If Joe gets hit hard early and or gets rattled, we could have trouble. I think they have one good corner and one good safety and thats it. Our guys will be open, but will Joe have time and the ability to find them? I think so, and I think once our RB's and WR's get the ball in space it will be explosive.

Great QB. Plays hard. Absolutely not concerned with this. Lamar Jackson was better.
Hell we contained Johnny football on multiple occasions and the defense we have today would make the ones that faced him wet their britches.
Look to have a LB spy him every play. That means a lot of man coverage on Collin Johnson. We are about to see how talented these corners are.
Stingley gets his first pick.

The majority of LaTech’s strategy was to make short quick passes and try to allow the receiver to get YAC. Had they decided to go downfield more, and made the QB stand in the pocket longer, I’d imagine you’d see those sack numbers increase. Hard to sack a QB who’s just pitching it out almost as soon as he gets it.
The defensive performance isnt much different from when LaTech came to LSU’s place last year with essentially the same squad.
LaTech passed 50 times, LSU, 2 sacks.

It’s crazy bc reading this board, you would think Texas didn’t play well which I thought was not the case. I watched the game today and thought they looked better than I expected. LA Tech was never in this game. All of the things in the OP’s summary are arbitrary painted in the worst light possible.
For example, it wasn’t “unlucky” that the ball was tipped and picked. The DE or OLB not sure his technical position recognized the quick out, got his hands up and made a heck of a play that batted the ball to a defender. No luck. Solid play.
A fumble is not an excuse for not scoring. It’s also not unlucky. Ask the RB for Ga Southern. A sack isn’t an excuse for a drive stalling. These are all the hallmarks of good defensive stops.
The truth is Texas was in control of this game from the jump. Tech never threatened. Sure they missed a couple of midrange field goals. So add 6 points to their garbage time scores. This summary was extremely biased and I’m not sure why. Texas has a good team. I think we have some definite advantages. But to paint a picture that LA Tech was almost in that game is pointless and not truthful. They were a lot more in the game vs us last year.

They played pretty well offensively. I’d imagine they didn’t unleash the full defense (the crazy exotic shite Orlando likes to run) in order to not give film for LSU to study. However, there was some issues with the D. Jalen Green appears he’s going to be a good one. The other corner (whoever they decide to rotate there throughout the game) is going to be picked on by Burrow A LOT this week.
Aside from that, there were some issues tackling. No matter how vanilla your scheme is, there shouldn’t be an excuse for that. Probably should have been 250-270ish passing if not for tackling woes. They had a couple smaller shifty players, so I will give them credit for making guys miss. However, if you got problems with LaTech skill players in the open field.........then you are gunna have a long season if you don’t correct it (especially this Saturday).
I’m a horns fan, but I’m not unrealistic. I’ve seen some people arguing that Burrow didn’t really impress and that he dinked and dunked his was to his high completion percentage and had easy reads to amass his yards/stats. Well........Texas just faced a guy that put up almost 350 passing by doing just that. So it really doesn’t matter if people think Burrow’s performance last week wasn’t stellar. As far as I can see, that means he not only can repeat that this Saturday to have success, but will also have the intermediate and long ball in his arsenal to go along with it. Only difference with missed tackles this week........they won’t go for an extra 7-10 yds. They could easily be housed.

Pretty good analysis Deucer.
One corner missed several open field tackles, whiffed on a couple completely.
Tech had some success on WR screens and LB’s had some trouble covering RB’s and on speed plays. UT completely took away any run up the middle though.
I was surprised with Tech getting to Ehlinger some. But, UT moved the ball easily and didn’t get much of a test.
LSU wins this one. More experience, talented, and well rounded team.

Yeah... I attributed the lesser passing yds to missed tackles solely. Probably would have been the 250ish range passing when combining missed tackles, out of place LB’s and bad angles at times. Nonetheless , the yards were there for the offense to have.
I remember Herman commenting on them getting to Sam at the end of the 1st half. Said something like “their D coordinator only blitzed 7% last year, and was blitzing 3/4 plays on the last drive”. Not quite sure what the hell that means. You still need your O-line to pick it up, or Sam to diagnose that one is being dialed up and audible accordingly.
