    Not quite perfect yet, but that 2nd half reminded me of years of recent past, of dominating and smothering defenses.

    Jamal Adams just vaulted into the top half of the first round of the draft. And deservedly so. Grown man football.

    Arden Key. The next great pass rushing DE at LSU.

    Not sure, it was right at midfield on that last drive. The last play I think crossed it.

    They had less than 100 yards in the second half.

    Our D has been really solid all year. In the 2nd half, they became dominant. Awesome to watch!

    They got to the 47 on the final play.

    They had 270 yds at half. Ended with 325 for 55 in the 2h I believe.

    Aranda is legit; 218 passing, 107 rushing.

    Vs Bama? 421 passing, 101 rushing.

    But we're supposed to be quaking in our boots? Forget that. Time to take this season back, take it from Bama.

    All I know is we shut them out in the 2nd half and Chad Kelly came in avg almost 350 yards passing a game and barely broke 200. I admit, I was a little worried about this game seeing as how easily they moved the ball on us last year, but this D is for real.

    Aranda still doesn't have the personnel to run the 3-4, that's what is scary. No Valentine tonight either, at least I didn't see him.

    The linebackers have gotten better too since Peveto was told he could only coach special teams.

    Next up. LSU is going to have to play its best game of the year to beat Alabama.

    I'll see you there.
