    I think against Bama we need to take a similar approach like we did when playing Manziel. Don't worry too much about rushing the passer, instead try to keep containment,forcing him to pass. I think Riley would make a good spy. I think when it's 3rd and 10+ you take your chance. Key is too good to not use.

    Exactly. I wonder if anyone else on here has taken note that when Ole Miss played Bama, Ole Miss doubled the points they totaled against LSU's D. Just throwing it out there.

    Well said. Which is why I feel Bama is beatable. They are clearly the best team in the country right now, but LSU has what it takes to win.

    The improvement from game 1 to now with the team as a whole has been tremendous since Oeaux took over for Miles.

    Fact is the team has NOT improved during the season under Miles the last few seasons.

    Yes Les' record has declined pretty much every year since the 2011 National Championship game. Hell with superior talent Les is 4-5 against rkansas since 2007.

    Defense has never really been the issue at LSU. Moving the ball and scoring points was. I think Eaux was hired more for his recruiting capabilities than anything else.
