Nothing changes the simple fact that Auburn is best rush defense LSU has faced all year.
statistically, Auburn is the 5th best (out of 7 teams) run defense that LSU has faced, so maybe your fact isn't as simple as you are making it out to be

Not even Muschamp believes Auburn has a good rush defense.

November is going to be a very painful month for LSU Rantards.

What does it look like for passing? Oh well, LSU is 116th out of 128 D1 teams in passing yards per game.

That's quite some work. I imagine you've done SOS comparisons without the effect of playing Alabama every time some shitty complaint about alabama's schedule has been posted too.

Henry and Drake are both legit. Different styles though, Henry more up the middle, Drake more runs to the edge. I think Bama should focus on getting the ball to Drake out in space, he's more elusive than Henry. However, its kinda hard to do because they use those plays moreso for Ridley. Ridley is faster and even more elusive so those plays are called for him.

Why would I do that? I'm not bitching about Alabama's SOS.

Both teams have weaknesses that the opposing team will try to exploit. I think Western Kentucky exploited LSU's youth in the secondary. Those crossing routes produced receiver's running wide open. You can bet that Ridley will run some of those same routes and if he catches it in open space, bad things are gonna happen to our D....LOL

Who the frick thinks that?

LSU has played at least 3 defenses who are better against the run than Auburn, even if you exclude the 411 yards on 48 carries that LSU had.

Why did you do the rushing comparison? Were you bitching about that?

The point, since you missed it, is that you can torture stats until they tell you exactly what you want them to tell you.

Ask and you shall receive:



As you can see, LSU has played slightly worse passing defenses, but they've generated a passing efficiency number of 152.66, good enough for 19th in the country.

Meanwhile, Alabama's passing efficiency is 133.12, 63rd in the country.

Someone posted a comparison of the defenses LSU and Alabama have faced, but they did not exclude the numbers the games against LSU/Bama, which you should do in order to gauge the quality of said defense.

I can understand the lackluster rushing though forreal. We have only 1 legit running back and our scheme does not highlight the RB whatsoever.


What's up with the freshman Harris? He looked kinda like Carlos Hyde in high school.

Turns out Florida is the highest ranked rushing defense that LSU has faced.

Funny, considering yours shows how big of a moron you are.
