fyi, we "packed it in" offensively from bama on

scott's ypc

Bama: 3.8 (with a 30 yard run)
troy: 3.8
UM: 1.0
arky: 2.3

notice a trend? when we packed it in, our running game went to shite

How did a question about LSU's fastest RB turn into a referendum on Jarrett Lee?


Because SFP is part of the rant and he doesn't have anything else to occupy his time.

Not even Jevan Snead thinks Jevan Snead is mobile.

rida: 2.9 ypc


that's because we were playing from behind and throwing the ball. Like I said earlier, we weren't going to win that game no matter what ..they were the #1 team in the country and had an axe to grind after we beat them in '07 and after they got embarrassed by Ole Miss

quote:

USC: 3.8 ypc

that's what happens when you become one-dimensional on the road ..and you forgot to mention USC had a great run defense last year when their QB Garcia was fricking things up to hurt them ...sound familiar?

quote:

the running game was mediocre before UGA and Bama


is that why Scott was 2nd Team All-SEC behind the #1 RB taken in the first round of the NFL draft? ..also ahead of Glen Coffee

that's very good against that D. Best game of any RB all year against the Tide

quote:

troy: 3.8


not terrible. Plus we threw the ball much more

quote:

UM: 1.0


when you have ZERO QB play it is easy to load the box and dominate, especially with a great DL like they had. AGain, we had packed it in by then

arky: 2.3

I love people's definition of this. Yes, they had momentum and flew under the radar far enough to have a successful outcome. They got maximum output and played more discipline, etc.

But to say they had better talent and ability than LSU is false. Further, if we play them the day we played Bama or anytime before that then it's a good ball game ..that game is usually a good ball game ..it's a rivalry game

to say that lee was better than any qb in the country last year is laughable,

HOW IS ANYONE WORSE ?

SFP can never admit when he's wrong

to even try and support Lee's season a year ago is laughable

you almost would think he's related to the guy

he was better than half the QBs in the SEC last year as a RS freshman without a defense to back him up

not as talented as LSU

best RB was a Baton Rouge reject frosh (Bolden).. and Wallace was really their only playmaker at WR. (Hodge and BReaux are both very average and would never play at any top-tier SEC program). No TE. Two good OLs ..a solid DL, you're right. Average LB unit and poor defensive backfield

Snead is streaky but good, you're right.

But overall, they are very very average in overall team ability. They got by on gimmicky stuff taht worked, getting 110% out of their 22 starters and sneaking up on several opponents

I think Ole Miss loses 3-4 games this season even with an advantageous schedule. They can't carry the target...just not a good enough all around team to do it in this conference

find the one 3-star Ole Miss had who blew up and find a strong LSU recruit and try to create and argument angle ..hilarious

RJF is in the league just like PEria...and he was the Defensive MVP and gamechanger in the BCS CHampionship game where Pelini called him the "Best player on the field"

He has ability. He was hurt early last season and then faded with the rest of our defense the rest of the season

where RJF didn't benefit from positive momentum of the season, Peria did

they were both the lead DTs on both teams at the same fricking time. that's why they were compared

yeah one via 1st round and one via 7th round

quote:

He has ability.

he does, but his ability didn't show up in testing. if he tested as well as we thought he would, he woulda gone in the 3rd

quote:

RJF had the change to make up for this with good workouts. he did not have good workouts

hence, his TALENT was overrated

still have plety on DL ..maybe more than last year with Jerrell Powe playing more and Hardy being a senior playing for Top 10 money

They lose their big one on the OL but have a couple of guys who are ok. LSU is better though...and our depth is WAAAAAAY better all around
