If we bring our A game we shouldn’t have any problem with Ole Miss; Arkansas should be a close game, but we win. ldskule:
Neither team can stop the run very well. This is much more important in the Arkansas game. We can control the clock running the ball and doing some strategic play action pass. We'll keep their offense off the field and Wilson likely will never get into a rhythm. That's how you win that game easily.
Exactly. I have every faith in our defense, but the absolute best defense is to not let the other offense have the ball.
Make NO mistakes about this.......Ole Miss is absaloutley putrid!! That game should not be close......but the arkansas game.....the team had better play inspired football......personally I think this is going to be the biggest test for LSU's defense all year.....The big advantage I DO think we have is up front our d-line against their O-line....we are supposed to be able to get pressure without having to blitz....if thats the case it could be a long day for Arkansas! Our offense has got to step up and control the clock and score points against Arkansas.....just my keys to a victory!!
I would add to that GET SOME FREAKIN PRESSURE IN THE QB's FACE! Did u see what Oregon's Defense did to a QB like Luck (who would be starting for many NFL teams today had he left early last year)??? Pressure, pressure, pressure! We never put pressure on Geno Smith and he tore us up. This must change...
For that matter, WKU was tearing us up until we decided to put pressure on them. They fell apart after that, but they played inspired in the first half.
