I do not agree with this assessment. I do not think they looked like "deer in headlights" at all in November. I think our Dline was getting manhandled.

Twelve games into the season, your true freshmen who were thrown into the fire too early should have grown up a little and become better players through experience and coaching.

auburn moved the ball even when the freshman weren't on the field, again in my opinion, because our Dline never figured out a way to get off blocks.

I didn't see any significant discombobulation. I saw a Dline that was getting manhandled, and I saw a cascading negative effect downfield as a result.

Alright - I think the Golding back and forth has reached max capacity.

All in favor of anchoring both the Golding threads?

November either and were making the same damn mistakes with the same damn deer in the headlights look they had in September.

I don't know so much about the whole "deer in the headlights" thing, but as I mentioned earlier, the substitution penalty that wiped out an interception on LSU's second drive was the second time this season an INT had been wiped out by a substitution penalty. There's no excuse for that happening in November, and IMO is all on Golding. That INT would have given us good field position to go down and possibly tie the game.
