My opinion was never that Leach would struggle in the SEC because of defense but rather its because of how one dimensional he is.

You have to be able to win in multiple ways to be elite. Mississippi State can beat anyone if they're clicking though.

Leech runs the most balance offense in the country.

You still think balance means run vs pass. In his offense it means attacking all parts of the field on every play creating space.

You have to defend the entire field and the longer he can defend his QB, the deeper you have to defend it. That's why RB out of backfield is so effective late. They have space to operate.

I know it different but it has worked everywehre he has been.

People keep saying but he lost at TECH or WSU and MS State is the same. We shall see. State has done one thing these past couple decades and that's field a defense. Some of those losses turn into wins with a few stops.
