The difference in Bama and LSU's defensive ranking

Hey red,
you wouldn't happen to have a link where I can read up on these stats?
I find that balance to be amazing. That has to be one of the reasons we're #1 right now. Wow! Studkrag has done an amazing job.

 

Look at the LSU page on ESPN ... average per game ... 183 passing, 183 rushing. (183*6=1098)

That's as 50/50 as it gets.

 

I wouldn't have thought our passing was as high as our rushing yards with as little as we throw the ball. I'm sure clm is happy also.

 

I agree .. it doesn't seem so .. but .. it is what it is. Probably boils down to the fact that Ware is not much of a breakaway, open field type runner. Cracks me up .... last game, he breaks through the line, and instead of doing a little razzle dazzle to get around the safety, he just lowers his head and runs over him ... :rofl::rofl:

Now Ford on the other hand .... that dude can fly in the open field, but he doesn't get as many touches.

 

Ford is going to be so ready to play again when he finally gets out of the dog house that he's going to be jumping over people.

 

I knew about the amazing stats. Just hope that they can keep it that way against Bama.

 

Little separates Alabama, LSU (Herndon) | al.com

LSU has been better at forcing turnovers, recording 14 takeaways to Alabama's 10. Much of the difference can be attributed to Tigers cornerback Tyrann Mathieu, who has two interceptions, four forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries.

Honey Badger doesn't care. He just takes what he wants.

It's becoming increasingly apparent that the Alabama-LSU game will be for all the marbles in the SEC. Florida has been rudely exposed, and a distracted Steve Spurrier is throwing hissy fits at columnists in Columbia. Georgia's defense is a surprising sixth in the nation, but gave up 390 and 395 yards, respectively, in losses to Boise State and South Carolina.

Both the Crimson Tide and Tigers still play Auburn, and LSU has a potential stumbling block against Arkansas at the end of the year. But neither LSU nor Alabama has shown any sign of weakness.

Their Nov. 5 game in Tuscaloosa should be the de facto SEC title game. The New York Times' Pete Thamel this week called it a national semifinal.

With all due respect to Trent Richardson and Rueben Randle, it'll be decided by defense.

Which one's better? Don't ask Muschamp. He's still trying to get the numbers of the two trucks that just ran over his football team.

 

That's a credit to this team having the long(er) passing attacks.

I also hope they plan on spreading the wealth to the multitude of receivers as it is almost certain they may try to double team on Randle and/or Becker.
