Sorry for getting all youtube crazy on everyone here...i've been watching A LOT of LSU and OSU clips today, here's a pretty good one on the defense...I'm really hoping we tackle well, but the bucks like to gang tackle, so... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2Z4w-Xi284&feature=related
I never said we gang tackle every play, but there are a fair amount of clips where there are several buckeyes making the tackle, and having watched every tOSU game for the last decade or so, it's always been a trademark. To clarify, I'm hoping we do a much better job tackling on Jan. 7th, than we did against FL last year. From what i've seen of hester, we'll need to put a couple of hats on him to bring him down.
Hester is the power, Williams and Holliday are the speed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3ilAoC4oG0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNxQls1JNwI&feature=related Charles Scott is the combination of power and speed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0QSk8aWVB0 This is LSU's strenght, they always have fresh legs out there...We're gonna miss Hester but we'll be all right.:LSU231:
the Scott one I hadn't seen...I was hoping for a six minute clip with motion highlights...for whatever reason, the only "full length" ones I can find are stills. There's no doubt in my mind we have our work cut out for us...Just seems like a lot of folks around here don't share the feeling.
You gotta understand our point of view...Most of OSU fans will say that Tressel is a much better coach than Miles, which is fine by me...The other side of that coin is that most LSU fans believe that we've faced teams like OSU this season already that pose a tougher matchup for us...I'm not saying that your team is not good, that we're cocky or that we gonna win by a blow out...it's just that what we've been through this season with all the injuries, close games, and out senior leadership, we feel that we're prepared for this kind of game and what OSU brings to the table.
Agreed...I would say, that having watched some games where tressel seems to make no adjustments, that he's not perfect, and I think the real edge in coaching is big game experience, not necessarily talent, regardless of what other buckeyes think. Though I expect Miles to close that gap very quickly. I respectfully disagree about you having faced teams like OSU, as I think we will suprise a lot of people offensively in this game...whether it's enough to win or not, will depend on our defense's ability to contain Hester, Flynn and Co...
My point exactly..You feel one way, we feel different...I respectfully disagree that Tressel is a much better coach than Miles and you respectfully disagree that we haven't faced teams like OSU or better....It's just the way it is and it will be a great and close game judging by the way this bowl season is going0
