If you have a good front 7 you can stop auburns offense. If you're weak at LB or DL they'll run all over you due to misreads

The numbers probably have us a little over rated. We haven't faced any really good offenses yet.


I think K St is a good offense and we held them to 14. Outside of our game, they've scored 55, 32, 58 and 45. I think if they didn't go as slow as they did, they'd probably avg a few more scores a game. They consistently wait to about 5 seconds on the playclock to snap it, except their last drive or two against us when they had to start going faster.

Against the three best teams on their schedule , they have given up a total of 7 points in the second half.

just because your savior frosh QB sailed it over their head by 10 yards doesn't automatically mean the DB that was standing right next to the WR was going to allow him to catch the ball.

Didn't y'all have a losing record in '08?

We gave up 18 pts/game that year.

Offense was worse than 2012 which is saying something

I guess you do not want to talk about MSU DBs. From what I heard from UAB Fans, they are weaker than FAUs.

Georgia, Bama, Mizzou, and FSU had pretty good front 7's last season. We scored 43, 34, 59, and 31. If that's us getting stopped, good luck outscoring us

Yes. Much improved team. I would have to add though that the LSU stats are a bit misleading. Harris missed a half-dozen wide-open receivers that most of the experienced QB's in the league would have hit. Still they are a solid SEC D.

Yeah, really.

Marshall threw two TDs, ran for one, & Tre Mason ran for one. A 69 yard drive put AU in FG range for 3 points.

Let's get our calculator's out and add those up.

............... yup, 31 points

LSU went 0-13 on 3rd down conversions. I don't care how bad somebody's offense is, not having a single 3rd down conversion against you in a game says something.
