I'm just going to leave this here and step away.

While LSU’s defense has statistically fallen this season, the Tigers’ struggles on third downs have been exaggerated by focusing on three or four failures rather than the greater number of successes.

The article uses a lot of generalities and goes back a few years to make his point.

Quite frankly, it doesn't matter how good Chavis' defense was in 2009 or last season. This season, it stinks. Ole Miss, for crying out loud, made a living out of converting on 3rd downs against LSU, regardless of the yardage needed.

Chavis' defenses suck arse when it matters the most. Well at least, the least of the time they do.

Yes only focusing on the failures in critical situations, but I mean frick we were stopping the likes of Furman on 3rd down all through out the 3rd quarter. Why can't people see this????

you can only lose by playing teams like that.

our defense, no matter how much they are struggling, should be able to stop furman consistently, which they did in the second half.

I have never heard of a school paper that bashes its athletics as bad as this one does.

I just said I was posting it and stepping away. Nowhere did I say I agreed with any of it.

I probably shouldn't have posted it.

I support the coaching staff, but I wouldn't call myself a pumper like the author of this article.
