Their secondary is good, but last year they got gashed up the middle by multiple teams. If their run D doesn't improve drastically, they'll be no higher than 6th.
Our run D improved drastically LAST year…. and we have the same starters at DT and MLB.
Florida - 32 attempts 123 yards 3.84 ypc 1 TD
Kentucky - 27 attempts 71 yards 2.63 ypc 0 TD
Mississippi - 34 attempts 137 yards 4.03 ypc 0 TD
Alabama - 29 attempts 106 yards 3.66 ypc 0 TD
Arkansas - 38 attempts 95 yards 2.50 ypc 2 TD
Texas A&M - 21 attempts 84 yards 4.00 ypc 1 TD

Yes. Welter was a liability.

What do y'all lose on defense?

I don't see your defense improving

Either way, they wouldn't have made a difference one way or the other.

You idiots say this every year.
You have no idea what's coming at you next year.
Prepare your anus gump.

Beckwith played in a reserve role as a backup to DJ Welter…. who played so poorly against Auburn that he was benched the following week, which corresponds directly to LSU's rushing yardage allowed dropping by 50%.
2015 Godchaux, LaCoutoure, and Beckwith will destroy Roc Thomas.

The thought of Kevin Steele trying to stop a Gus Malzahn offense has me laughing. Besides, LSU almost always struggles stopping a running game with Gus Malzahn coaching it. 298 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2014, 213 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2013, 87 yards and 1 touchdown in 2011, 440 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2010, 112 yards in 2009 and 298 yards and 3 touchdowns in 2006.

Is a true freshman playing in his first conference game, and in a road environment, and in LSU's road environment, supposed to frighten me?

I don't think Gus has a Tre Mason, Darren McFadden, or Cam Newton on this year's team… especially if your high school RB is going to be the feature back.

Also, Gus Malzahn didn't need any guy like that last year when he had Cam Artis-Payne.

Where did LSUs defense finish ranked last year?
1st in the sec in total defense and 2nd in scoring defense

Those facts and $.25 will buy you a pretty bad cup of coffee.

How did that work out? Welcome to BR Kevin Steele. Goot ruc.

Ah. Didn't realize he was JUCO. Maybe lightning will strike twice from those ranks… either way, this guy is going to have almost no time to adjust to the speed of Div I football by the time LSU comes around on the schedule.
I'd hold off on predicting a 200+ rushing game in Week 3.

Defense did it's job for the most part last year. The offense is a different story.
Sorry LSU had a statistically better defense than the tide last year.

LSU will have no answer for Duke Williams, Jeremy Johnson, Racean Thomas and Jovon Robinson if all stay healthy.
