LA Tech vs. LSU Stat National Rankings
Posted on 9/21/18 at 12:19 pm

LA Tech's rank is on top and LSU's on the bottom. Not pessimistic whatsoever because we're gonna get the W. I just thought it was some wacky stats of the day how two teams with such a big talent gap could be this far apart when it comes to statistics.

Tech is all offense all the time, and they have a developing coach who will soon make it onto a big-time program.
Make no mistake about it, Tech is a solid ball club, but who have they played?!?

Had LA Tech played LSU's schedule, do you think their numbers would be the same?
Think a little man.

Holtz is in his mid 50's and has only coached mid majors. He also pretty much drove USF into the ground.

Not at all, but I would like to think our numbers would be just a tad bit higher. I was using them as comparisons.

Tech has played TWO games. LSU has only played 3, but 2 against Top 10.
Show me these stats later in the season when we play Rice, and they MIGHT mean something then.

I know LSU has played a tougher schedule, but still crazy how far ahead Tech is statistically when LSU has played one more game than them.

I'm a Tech graduate but look at who they play vs LSU's schedule before you do any comparison. LSU should win easily on defense alone but Tech can score just not nearly enough to outweigh the talent gap. It'll be fun for a quarter, maybe but by late 2nd quarter LSU is turning on the jets and by 4th quarter clearing the bench. Coach O will not run it up on an instate school. LSU 34 Tech 13.

Louisiana Tech’s punter averages something like 20 yards a punt - that will be the glaring issue Saturday night.

Stats don't tell even close to the entire story. Just looking at the stats, you would think Burrow is not doing so great. If you watched the games, you would know he is a pretty good QB.

Comparing stats is not equal and can't be used to make a solid argument at this point in the season.
LA Tech probably has a legit offense for the teams they play. To suggest that their offense is better than LSU's is nuts though.

Miami's punter must've transferred there after we played them

Yeah not trying to make an argument for anything really. I just thought it was interesting

Dyer averaged 39 with a shanked punt against USA (62 long) and 52 against Southern (66 long).

If you say so man. LSU has an extra game to compile stats at this point. So yeah, I think Tech putting up way more rushing yards and passing yard is pretty crazy.
I don't think Tech is better than LSU because of it though if that's what you thought I was saying.

Those stats are cute. LSU is going to kick their arse soundly.

huh?
38-27 at East Carolina over 5 seasons, parlayed that into the South Florida job.
16-21 at South Florida over 3 seasons, and they got worse every year.
He's going to be a career mid-major kind of guy. The only way I see him at a major conference if it's at a Purdue, Vandy type school.
