The best offense LSU's defense has faced was the Mississippi State bulldogs. Those are the 55th best offense in the nation. Past that, they've played practically NO offenses. Now, i've watched that D play, and they do seem to be ball-hawks... but really, how are they going to really plan for this Auburn offense?

I just got told these stats by an auburn buddy.

don't know if it's already been discussed, but LSU fans... what say you?

It will certainly be interesting. LSU hasn't played an Offense like AU, and AU hasn't played a defense like LSU. It wouldn't surprise me if the first quarter was 3-0, with both teams trying to figure each other out.

Not an LSU fan, but their D is pretty good. I expect to see a really close game Saturday. I'm not saying Newton won't get any big plays, but they will be limited.

I think Chavis and Miles have seen enough college football games to know how to plan for this one. I like our chances.

LSU hasn't faced a secondary quite like Auburn's, either.....

The numbers for the defensive are still impressive for playing that many BCS teams....


I agree that they might be slightly overhyped in the eyes of most LSU fans, but regardless they are an elite defensive unit. The best in the whole country is probably an overstatement considering, but even if go to say a top 15 defense; thats still pretty damn good.

Arkansas was 13th until they played us


yeah but did you really put as much stock into that as you would LSUs defense?

dont get completely caught up in the stats

some are telling...but just watch the D play


They are faster and quicker to the ball than any defense in the league

They are pretty bad arse with a lot of ball hawks and headhunters so watch the game and find out.
