Kiffin’s knowledge of Rebs strengths and weaknesses

I can’t imagine any staff ever having this huge of an advantage about an opponent. He knows almost every starter much greater than just film study. He’s seen firsthand every practice and game for them for years, and should be able to plan much more thoroughly than a normal staff could. It’s a really big deal, IMO.

Have an upvote and fingers crossed.

Agreed. That with our defense, he'll feed baker the knowledge.
Arguably the most important thing heading into this game & then the redzone...

Kiffin known as an offensive mastermind. Golding not so much on other side of ball. Advantage LSU

Having knowledge of strengths of the Rebs may be dampened if you don’t have the personnel to combat the strengths, but I feel this Tiger team has much better personnel than last year’s team. So, I feel really good about stopping them. I also like our weapons to attack a weaker Reb team, on both sides of the ball.

I agree. Plus, the LSU defense is used to going up against the fast paced Kiffen offense in practice.

Yes, but which side do you believe to have more football IQ?

Way to show off your lack of football IQ.

Not sure what you mean;
We got 7 or 8 OM coaches. They know that team. OM coaches came to LSU, not the other way around. Unless you mean Wilson.
Frank’s value is recruiting. He’s not a great football mind.

Blake baker doesn't need help. This will be the first time chambliss will face nfl type speed edge rushers. He'll make some plays, but LSU has nfl d-linemen.

I get it but on the flip side, Golding knows Weis’ offense as well. That aspect is kind of a washZ
That said, LSU is going to curb stomp them.

Lane made Chambliss who he is and will tear him down the same way he built him up come Saturday night!

I’m amazed people still can’t.

Not really in this case. Does Golding know Kiffin and Weis about as well as any defensive coach in the country? Probably.
Does he know LSU's personnel, on either side of the ball, other than the Ole Miss transfers? Not at all.
Like I said in another thread - is there a defensive starter for Ole Miss, not named Will Echoles, that would start for LSU? I don't think so.
Even if we assume the offensives are reasonably comparable and coaching staff's knowledge of each other are likewise comparable, I think we have a clear edge on defense. And we have an edge on our coaches knowing Ole Miss personnel better than Ole Miss coaches knowing LSU personnel (ETA: even considering that Frank Wilson was a top LSU recruiter as recently as 2025, for all practical purposes, LSU 2026 is a completely different team than 2025).

Raiders vs bucs Super Bowl. Chucky knew every last thing the raiders wanted to do and they drummed them.

LSU isn't running the same offense that Lane ran last year. It's completely different
