What's the current SOS for each team?

LSU no longer needs third downs, don't you #Harris, bro?

Using stats to present an argument is cool and shite, but the results will play out on the field this Saturday. Every week is a different week. LSU will be ready!

I would not be shocked if this was a low scoring game.

LSU also hasn't played a true road game yet... but probably Wisconsin/msu > arkansas/k-state.

I'll give them MSU, but not Wisconsin. AU has the better win there.

Holding on to that K-State "win" with white knuckles.

If I were to subjectively rank those 4 offenses it would be:
MSU
Arky
Wisconsin
KSU
Thus, I would concede that LSU has faced the slightly more difficult Power 5 offenses as compared to Auburn.

What's so "funny"?
You seem pretty dense.

This is the main reason most intelligent LSU fans are concerned about Auburn, Bama and Arky. The run defense has been an abortion this year.

Welter is bad, Beckwith is not.

If Beckwith is lined up correctly...

DT's as well. AU could probably win without throwing a pass, providing they don't fumble a few times. LSU is as soft on defense as I've seen since 2008.
