re: Ngl I don’t see how anyone is blaming the defense for that loss

I agree, but we all know Bama was going to score again. In a tight game like this it was up to our offense to match Bama, score for score. We had the lead at that point. The margin of victory is not indicative of the success of our defense. That was the gift by our offense.

Well said. I, too, am amazed at how many people are blaming the defense but I couldn't articulate it as well as you did.

Scoring 13 points on 457 yards of offense doesn't win football games. Don't see how anyone can blame the defense on that one.
These idiots actually believe that "we dominated the game"

Looking at how we dominated the stats, one would think LSU wins that game handily.
The defense for the most part did its job. The only beef I have is Alabama's scoring drive right after we took the 13-10 lead. I don't know what happened there.
The offense, play calling, OL, and idiotic 4th down decisions did us in.

Quit bailing that loser out.
Baker blew the game when he gave up a 60 yard pass the play following LSU’s go ahead TD.
Forget about that?
Blake had a better game than Lane did.

My gripe with the defense was their performance in redzone and near redzone. Bama got the ball inside LSU's 25 4x and scored a TD 4x.
Two of these scores were complete busts.
As good as the defense has been, their TD prevention rate in the redzone is bad.
LSU has an offense that struggles in the redzone and a defense that gives up a high TD conversion rate in the redzone. Not a great combo.

The problem is when we finally do come back and take leads or need to stop one last drive, the defense folds. All the 3 losses can point to a time in the game when LSU either had just caught up, taken the lead, or needed one last stop and the defense promptly let the opposing offense march right down the field and score, taking away momentum and the lead.

This was big on Saturday. The stadium was ready to come unhinged after LSU took the lead, and then, boom, a 60-yard play.
It gets going again on a 3rd and long that same drive. QB scrambles for a first down. Never recovered after this.

Defense was not responsible for the loss, but they're inability to get the key stops did not help!

The defense broke in the 4th due to awful field position that special teams put them
Not breaking directly after we took the lead and put the whole stadium into a frenzy would have been nice. Not letting UK and Ole Miss score right before halftime after we’ve just scored would have been nice.
Baker isn’t as bad as rantards think but he also isn’t as good as people think. He’s solid, not spectacular. The problem is his defenses seem to sputter at the worst possible times, like on Saturday.

Bama’s average starting field position was their 39 yard line. And I don’t know if I heard this exactly right, but I’m pretty sure someone said Bama had 10 offensive possessions. 8 of them were 5 plays or less. (Of course one of those was that 3 play scoring drive). But we got off the field.
I don’t see how any serious person could watch that game and blame the defense at all. It was the red zone offense and special teams where the game was lost.

you’re delusional, as is anyone defending that bum at this point.
The offense controlled the ball so the defense was hardly out there and they still managed to give up 31 points.
There is literally no way you are this stupid. The offense's inability to finish drives and turning the ball over put Bama in LSU territory 3 times to start their drives. Twice inside the 30. This game is 100% on the offense. Defense did it's job.

The Rants want to not blame Lane for anything is hilarious. Baker has his flaws but he coached well enough to win Saturday. Lane did not. I trust in Lane. I think he 's going to win championships here. He knows he's got to clean up these RZ problems. Year 1 and bring in 50+ new players we are having issues. Year 2 I think he will clean alot of this up.
