I heard yesterday that redshirt freshman Sam Gibson is showing signs of being seriously good at safety. Stuck behind some very talented players and will see mostly special teams work but he is smart, very fast and will lay a hit on you. Last fall the coaches worked him at several different pos...
[quote] Just an aside-the Chad Jones/Spencer Ware football plus another sport is an aberration. I can only think of one other example, Charlie Ward. Miles is a very patient coach and is great for the LSU sports community.[/quote] Chris Jackson was on scholarsip as the kicker on the LSU football t...

[quote]I'm going DE- Montgomery and Edwards DT- Freak and Downs[/quote] Just curious...since Kendrick Adams started every game at left DE in 2010 why would you think Edwards would beat him out? Edwards became a starter on the right side after Sam Montgomery got hurt. I would think Adams and...

Here is a link for individual and team statistic and rank in every category. [link=(http://web1.ncaa.org/mfb/natlRank.jsp?year=2009&div=IA&site=org)]LINK[/link]...
Just to show that you can find a stat for any occassion think about this.... LSU was 26th out of 120 teams on defense. That means 21% of D-I teams were better than LSU on Defense. On offense LSU was 112th out of 120 teams, meaning 93% of teams in D-I were better than LSU on offense. Better yet...
LSU was 109th in time of possession with an average of 27.50 minutes. The defense was on the field for 32.50 minutes. Thats 11 spots from dead last. On the other hand the team that won the BCS championship averaged 33.31 minutes on offense which was 5th in the nation....
[quote]The NCAA is not known for using commin sense in seeding teams in regionals. [/quote] You realize that when you say the NCAA you're talking about a committee made up of representatives of member schools, right? No NCAA employees are involved in selection or seeding. The make up of the...
Just Curious.... When was the last time any team from the ACC went out of conference and beat a team with a winning record from another BCS conference? The last three times LSU played an ACC opponent: LSU 40 - Miami 3 (#9 at the time) LSU 48 - VaTech 7 (#4 at the time) LSU 38 - GaTech 3...

[quote]Assuming Wilkerson has been involved, I expect our o-line will be better coached in 2010. that could make a difference, especially if some of our RBs step up (still to be seen IMO). If we get some traction in our running game to take some pressure off JJ, he might improve some in 2010 (I won'...

[quote]Simon(I think Cooper and Chavis will try him here 1st) [/quote] Billy Gonzales will try him at WR first. On the LSU.net website the recruits coming in August are are listed at the bottom of the spring roster. He's listed as a WR....
The reason it came up is because a person I know was bragging he paid the camp fee for a player to attend a camp at an SEC school. He happens to be an alumnus of that school. (its not LSU and the sport wasn't football)...
