Remember how last year's D had a "weakness" at linebacker. I think our linebacking core has definitely been developed well. Started out with great recruing, then great coaching and finally, great scheme and great motivators. Big ups to our coaching staff for the defensive side of the ball. Best in the nation, along with that other SEC West school.
He has been the best player in this D by far. If he doesn't get hurt against Florida, I'm not sure they score.
The "fans" over on Tigerdroppings are so freakin' negative that I read a thread where someone said Minter wouldn't even sniff the field if he played for Bama. When are LSU fans going to wake up and realize we are not Alabama's little brother?
LOL. I periodically go over to TD for a good laugh. As to your main point, I don't understand all of the negativity, either...
The media thinks Bama is invincible while the greatest coach in the history of college football mans the helm. And a lot of our fans drink the coolaid unquestioningly.
It makes me ill. They must be the same losers that pine away for ex-girlfriends, instead of moving on after being dumped.
If I'm Miles I'm reminding my players every chance I get how the media, the country and even some of our own are giving us no chance in this game.
