've seen it pointed out repeatedly that Chavis's defense couldn't get a stop late in the 4th or has given up several costly drives at the ends of halves, which resulted in several of LSU's recent losses.

The games fans point out are 2012/2014 Alabama, Clemson, 2013 UGA, 2013 Ole Miss, and Notre Dame.

With the exception of 2013 UGA, LSU's offense had trouble driving down the field and scoring touchdowns.

2012 Alabama: 3 points in the first half, 17 total
Clemson: Struggled to run the ball, spotted 14 points, only scored 24
Ole Miss: Shutout in the first half, 3 picks by Mett
2014 Alabama: Less than 80 yards passing, 13 points scored (3 off a short field)
Notre Dame: 28 points scored, 3 on explosive plays (100-yd KO return, 79 yard pass, 89 yard run).

The average of the unrefined scores from these 5 games is 21.2 points per game, which is unacceptable given LSU's resources.

LSU's offense should be good enough to cover for the defense those few times that Chavis's defense doesn't hold the opponent under 3 touchdowns.

LSU can't always count on winning a low scoring game.

On another note, Chavis's defense kept LSU in all of the 2009 losses, both 2010 losses, both 2012 losses, 2013 Ole Miss, 2014 Arkansas, and the Notre Dame game (believe it or not). The Mississippi State and Auburn games would have been more competitive if LSU's offense had kept their defense off the field. Not only will a defense get physically tired from being on the field against an uptempo or physical offense for most of a half or game, the defense might also get psychologically tired if they determine that their offense won't give them much if any help.

I don't have enough room to detail all the games that Chavis's defenses have won or helped win for LSU. The number is far greater than the number of games LSU's offense has won in the past 6 seasons.

No one should expect one's defense to play a complete 4 quarter game if the offense isn't held to the same standard. Both are essential to consistently fielding a championship caliber team.





Thanks for making more sense than half of our own fanbase.

Lot of pumpers are jumping to pin this on Chavis to deflect from shitty arse Miles and his terrible offense.
Your posting history shows evidence of you being permanently stuck on cloud 9
Also hasn't it been dead period. Not familiar with all the restrictions
Chavis gonna call the kid up and say "hey im leaving, frick off from LSU" ?

If the battle came down between aTm and LSU for where he committed to, you would be correct.


Don't think it is as big a deal as you think.
Against , lets be honest, a scrub in a low rent bowl game.


Not a negative to win but I won't be jumping out of my seat if we just run the ball down their throat for four quarters. LSU plays three games a year minimum against teams that stop the run
WOOOOOOOOO LSU WILL RUN 32 TIMES FOR 300 YARDS AND THAT DOES NOTHING FOR JENNINGS OR THE TEAM NEXT YEAR

Y'all are right. Makes sense then. Anywho, this mirrors a lot about the federal government.


They spend too much money and then crawl back to the taxpayers asking for more money. Cut yalls spending.

All mounts look fricking terrible. This is just on the lower end of that.

That location on Jefferson of Stabiler's will be Stabs 2, the second location of his steakhouse in Central.

How is the Central (1996 graduate here) school system doing compared to Zachary?


Pretty close. I am told that Zachary has too many separate campuses. Only a couple grades per. Don't know if that is true though.

However, I can say that Central is right there as far as test scores go. And the recently built school for elementary is very very nice from the outside, haven't been in.

Anyways, at the next post below this one...Yeah Miles should be kissing Chief's a-hole all morning before the game and all evening after, because he is the main reason the last few years that Miles has a job.

Also this morning, Ponamsky has a football insider on the show, and that guy said that Chavis and Sumlin spoke yesterday.


Just passing it along.

From a strategy perspective, when a team is behind, the OC is more likely to call plays and push for 1st downs via passing plays and by generally riskier play calling. He needs success. When a good DC has a team playing with a 2-score lead, it becomes easier to predict what the O will do and the DC has a cushion to take more risks. So he can be more aggressive with his blitz packages, dialing up more pressure, and he can stay in press man and push for turnovers. When an opposing offense and a defense are both taking risks, it favors the D if they are well coached.

A&M's offense tends to jump out to early leads and scores more points/game than most SEC teams. 9 points/game is 2 scores. And this includes the team falling apart in Bama. I don't think it's fair to compare last season since Manziel was unique. However, A&M will have a very talented dual threat on campus next fall as a true freshman. Some have argued Kyler Murray is the best player in the history of Texas High School football, having never lost a game as a starting QB in 3 seasons (in 6A).

With young talent like Myles Garrett and Armani Watt, who both started as true freshman, and incoming talent like Daylon Mack (who will recommit), there is a lot for a solid DC to build on. When you add in how bad the D has been, any solid DC will look like a genius the 1st season. So while it probably will not be Chavis, I'm convinced some high profile DC will recognize this and jump at the opportunity.



You are delusional, like most Texas residents regarding football, regardless of high school, college, or pro, and regardless of team loyalty.


With all those early leads, aTm has still yet to win anything in the SEC. Give me a break...Texas A&M never will either with that AAC Houston offense.
