That's the beautiful thing about it, my friend... You don't have to agree with me here. I'm just stating some of my observations. Yes, the zone defense killed us in the second half.. Yes, when we did show blitz, even the little old lady behind me could see it and who was gonna be open. My statements are in a way making the same point as well. He (Ainge) was rattled because we were hitting him and putting pressure on him, thus disrupting the team's groove. I know this as well, and stated "Yes there were other factors at play"... But fact of the matter is, even with that BS defensive scheme we played in the second half, Ainge wouldn't have won that game. Or at least that's what I think. If you still call BS on it, I agree to disagree with you. No problems here.
i thought our OL was a bright spot too. going against the UT front 7, they did a good job of limiting pressure to JR and the running game was more than sufficient. LSU's offense will look much better against most of the rest of our opponents just of the OL. I wont be surprised however if Bama and Auburn's front 7 are similar. Atleast the passing game has a few chances to work the kinks out before we play these.
They were so horrible last year they can't be anything but much improved imo. Croom is a better coach than they've had, so a year under him will improve their technique and confidence...and they are a year older and a season wiser. Lost to AU by 28, 13 to UGA. I think we win somewhere in between there...by 17 or 20.
havent watched them this year, but i was very impressed by their effort last year. croom will have them battling Bama and Auburn for #2 in the west year in and year out in no time.
MSU is terrible throwing the ball Their QB sucks at throwing Their WR's suck at running and catching Their OL is bad We could play prevent and win the game against Conner and their WR's. I am not worried in the least about them. Now, if MSU does have success throwing the ball...you will see me jump completely off the Pelini bandwagon which is quite light these days
