Watched the Alabama game several times, it's the reason I have confidence in Aranda

Against the no.2 offense in the country, Alabama, I was impressed by the number of great plays LSU made on defense despite having a gimpy Delpit. For the most part, except for a blip or two, Aranda called a great game against that explosive offense. LSU made critical plays on defense that helped win the game, the interception by Queen due to a defense that confused Tua and critical stops when Bama tried throwing a swing pass to their back, Chaisson was there and made the play while Lawrence was on the other side batting balls down.

LSU didn't make every stop but made enough against the second-best offense in the country. Though we all wish for better from LSU's defense from last week, I feel comfortable moving forward the more I watched the Alabama game. Aranda has the talent and scheme to enable LSU's defense to force other teams' quarterbacks into making critical mistakes. But I don't see any opponent's defense that can do that to LSU's offense. Brady's offense is simply too dynamic and Burrow is too accurate, athletic and smart. Geaux Tigers!
