But also not quite as bad as we think now. He’s much better against the run than we give him credit for and although he hadn’t shown any pass moves up until this past Saturday, I saw him pull off a beautiful spin move that would’ve been a sack had there not been a breakdown in coverage. I fully expect to see more of that in the bama game but I guess we’ll just have to wait and see

Usually takes 2 years to mentally get over an ACL. He really looks good in his first season back. Physically, he’s doing well, and playing contain on these mobile QB’s

Good point. Something tells me he’ll have his way on November 9th

He’s more of a well rounded outside linebacker than just a pure pass rusher that we were expecting. He is great against the run usually in the right position on every play even when he isn’t the one making the tackle. He can get to the quarterback but he isn’t an elite pass rusher right now.

He’s very quick but seems like he needs to put on weight.

Didn’t pay a whole lot of attention against Auburn but against Florida it was really aggravating seeing Aranda continuously drop Chassion in coverage on 3rd and long and multiple other passing downs when he’s supposed to be our best pass rusher!!! Did he do that bc maybe coach O and everybody else was wrong about him and now they know he’s not our best pass rusher?? I just know it was really frustrating and was trying to think of reasons why he would do that

He's a complete player and not just a pass rusher which is what that the rant made him out to be.

He was highly visible against Auburn and virtually single handed ended the Florida game with the refs trying to hand them another score. The refs did the same against Auburn.

KC is always going strong, even when being held.

under cut quick slant and inside routes.
Exactly what Auburn did to us to slow down the burrow to Jefferson connections.

The dude is literally held almost every single play. He would have had multiple sacks in the Texas game alone had the guy not held him all night.

Good grief LSU fans are dumb sometimes...

He has 5 sacks in his career.

Chase Young had 4 sacks in his last game.

He's a pure speed guy as a pass rusher, and those can be neutralized via scheme. If he had any sort of inside move, he'd be deadly, but he currently doesn't have the bulk to bull rush most OTs.

There is more to it than just the stat sheet man. A lot.

Yeah I get that but then where do we get our pass rush from? If he’s the best pass rusher then get somebody else to do that and let him rush the passer I’m not a coach or even know that much about x’s and o’s but if he’s the best pass rusher then he should be doing that Especially on passing downs considering we’ve had problems getting to the quarterback
