Felt like losing Whit really bummed him out too. I’m sure they have a bond with him dating Landry.
That and the fact that Weeks came back to LSU with the goal of turning LSU’s defense back into what it was in days past… then he suffers this right in the heart of that transition…. It sucks man.

So you have us finishing the season 5-7? Cool, got you down.

Tackling is a misleading stat. Keys is a solid player but he isn’t Whit. There is a lot more to the position than just making a tackle.

He is most likely frustrated because he wants to win and his leaders are dropping like flies.

Well he’s under immense pressure to win and that gets way harder when your best players are injured. Quite literally one more injury at linebacker or corner and the defense will start to take a step back. We are running out of quality depth at those positions. We’d have to start playing freshmen. National media won’t be kind to him if he goes 8-4 or worse this year. They won’t care about the injuries. And a lot of LSU fans probably won’t either.

Next man up. Whit will be back in November to kick Tennessee’s arse in Knoxville then dominate the CFP.

All the injuries absolutely suck. But silver lining is younger players will be gaining valuable experience which could pay dividends next year.
I didn’t think this was our year. I thought it was too much to expect playoffs in year 1 of Kiffin. We have some big holes in this roster especially at offensive line. I agree I’d like to see the youngsters step up.

I don’t mind cold gumbo. It’s sludgy as frick and much better warm but still better than what most of the slack jaws in other parts of the conference are eating.

The harsh reality is one man’s injury is another man’s opportunity. Hopefully they’re ready to rise to the occasion.

Assuming Green returns for Alabama, he’s not going to be in top game shape, etc. I’d be surprised if Weeks is back for Bama, so what football shape will he be in if he returns for Texas?
Yea I'm expecting not much out of these guys if and when they come back.
I pray I'm wrong, but it's gonna be tough for them the first 2+ weeks back after being sidelined for a month and a half.
A guy like Green can plug in and being a contributor even if he's not fully up to speed, but Weeks will probably have a tough go of it having to lead the defense in our toughest stretch of the season after missing a bunch of games. It's gonna take a bit for him to get back up to speed.

Yeah. The days of replacing Devin White with Patrick Queen or Fournette with Guice are over .

Not for a LB. It tells you he’s always around the ball.

Maybe our receivers will develop more with green out,..and our linebackers also. Add that to Sam getting nicked up andlearning how to stay in the pocket and throw on balance because of it--it might be a blessing in disguise if we can keep winning without them & it would be a great stretch run when they come back..

Tackling doesn’t tell you the story. But think what you want.

Correct.
If you are making a lot of tackles 5, 6, 7 yards beyond the LOS that is not necessarily a good thing. Keys is a solid, but not impactful LB. Whit makes a lot more impactful plays behind the LOS (TFL, QB hurries, etc). If this were last season I'd be a bit more worried. However, I think Dottery can make those plays now and Keys doesn't have to be the guy you wish was making big plays.
Ideal? No. But it can be manageable assuming the rest of the guys on the defense remain relatively healthy.

I'm sure he's disgusted like the rest of us. Weeks went down due to friendly fire by a player that has no business being in the game based on the way he tackles. If he's too scared to look at what he is hitting and bring his arms then he's got no business being on the field. Diving head first at the lower legs of your teammate while looking straight down at the ground and turning your body into a missile is a dangerous way to tackle for everybody.

Jeez bunch of pussies in this thread giving up on the season already lmao.
Neither Whit or Trey'dez injuries are season ending. This team is good enough to tread water until they return. Especially if Sam continues to get better passing the ball.
Man up. This season is far from over.
