    Not really but a little, I don't think coordinators should be that fiery IMO. You get lost in your emotions and you need to be worried about the next play not really worried about the last play besides how it drives how you call the next play.

    It's really hard for me to turn on the guy, he has fielded some pretty awesome defenses and as recently as last year. Could it be that Devin White was so good that the drop off has just been difficult and was maybe hiding some glaring holes like DL for us.

    We look slow on defense. Guys just don’t look very fast. I was high on our edge pass rushers and ILBers but we really miss Devin White in the middle. Losing him and Greedy were big. I know you have Stingley but to have another lock down corner on the other side along with Devin White being able to recognize when to bring the heat is truly the difference. You can’t put this on Aranda but our defense has holes.

    The scary thing for opposing teams is that this defense has talent. They’re just not playing to their potential. So I hope these teams sleep on our defense and our defense makes them pay. Outside of that FU game, we’ve been solid in the 1st half and seem to coast in the 2nd and that’s resulted in big plays, ugly stats and rankings. We’re being attacked in the 2nd half due to nice leads and our defense isn’t answering the bell. That changes and LSU is a much bigger nightmare than people are thinking.
