Something to be excited about?

I think Gaye is legit.

He had more spiked balls than some of Our volleyball players.

I think BJ is probably gonna pass Anthony as soon as he has a good enough grasp of the defense.

Anthony is just short of being really disruptive. He’s always just off.
Also, did Anthony being #3 throw anyone off? I know About the number change but half the time I thought We were blitzing Jacoby every down.

Yeah,the question was ,was it the blitzing that got the pressure mostly ,or was it the d line? Or both?

So,I have a question. Do yall think the overall pretty damn good play by the d line was because we sent more then they could block most of the time,or was it the fact that were just better rushing the passer this year?

Both. I don't have a split of how much either...

But, there's no denying the fact that we saw multiple players "winning battles", consistently I might add. That's not a numbers game. That's players making plays. Of course Gaye stands stands out, Ika too. But they weren't alone.

The blitzing was (hopefully not "is") a problem primarily because:
A) there were many many plays where, against an air raid offense, you have YAC with the S no where to be found. Including on less than 10 yd routes after they've gained another 10 yds. YAC. So schematically, maybe the S shouldn't have been blitzing. Maybe.

But the biggest problem, based on the theory that if you blitz you have to get there first, especially if it is a S:

B) Was not disguised well enough. Costello knew, or had a pretty damn good idea, where to go before the ball was snapped. So if you're not disguising your S blitz well enough where the QB knows it is coming and where he can quickly get rid of it for the biggest gain, you have already lost the play. If it is disguised, maybe the QB takes longer and you get there and win the play.

They had that advantage; and I'll point out that our offense is based on exactly the same thing but we didn't execute in that manner and they won plays because pressure hit home (or "affected" Brennan) before ball left home.

Not that it's a big deal at all,but I'm trying to figure out how our d line was getting home,if it was the blitz or if they just won there matchups..

Isn't this exactly the thing to talk about on tiger rant? I get 100 percent downvotes for asking a question about the lsu football team. It's not an obvious bad question

So seriously, what are we supposed to talk about on here
. I've never cared about downvotes, but for the life of me ,I can't understand these downvotes. What are the appropriate questions to ask if you dont want downvotes? Its ridiculous. It happens all the time to everybody and if you ask any question, downvotes pour in.

The downvotes are because of your rambling. Ask the question and maybe add a your opinion in a precise manner but most of the OP is you trying to think out loud. Its all over the place.
