I don't think we roll easily. Manziel is a very good and mobile QB. I think he will be pretty hard to contain in the first half unless we are just so dominant. But I don't see your defense holding up to our run game through the fourth.

That's why they play the game and not rely on sites such as this to crown the winners!!
Should be a great game, and I'm looking forward to tailgating with some of you Cajuns.

pretty hard to say. We did okay against Florida there. Our front 7 isn't half bad. It's not great but it isn't awful. We really struggle against spread teams because our secondary has 3 good players and some that are just laughably bad. The more WRs the more the Dustin Harris's of the world play. And then things get ugly.
Our DTs are both undersized though so I'm not sure how we're going to do vs your power running game. I thought that would break us vs Florida though and it didn't. Basically everyone we've played since has run a spread of some sort so honestly there just isn't much to go on. I still have questions. We'll see.

You barley beat a team that was ranked 119 in defense, which was news to me. I feel much better now.
You barely beat the worst team in the SEC (well second worst), shite happens.

If LSU plays as well as they did against USC and A&M plays as poorly as they did against La Tech, LSU will win. No big news there.
A&M has pulled out the last 2 games over teams they should have beaten handily because of a ridiculous amount of mistakes. With Ole Miss it was 6 TO's (7 if you count a 4th Down turnover) and for La Tech it was 19 penalties that extended multiple drives for La Tech and killed several A&M drives. A&M also had a Pick 6 late that nearly tied the game.
LSU played a fantastic game against USC. Outside of the one bad pick that led to a TD it was nearly flawless. Of course they were also playing with their backs to the wall at Tiger Stadium. It was easily LSU's best game so far.
The question though is not who was better last week but who will be better THIS week. A&M certainly has circled this game from the moment the SEC schedule came out. It's got program changing potential that has only swelled with the 5-1 Start and Manziel's meteoric rise. LSU has to be feeling confident as well but will they be able to maintain their energy level after such an emotional home win and now going on the road with the next game being the rematch with Bama?
We shall see.

In reality, it was a little bit more than barely beating Auburn.

A&M had 68% conversion on 3rd down. Yet only had the ball for 32:00.
Time of possession in this game is going to grind them to dust. LSU will possess the ball, and A&M won't be able to continually convert on 3rd down.
TOP: big stat to watch Saturday. A&M must give its defense time to rest by extending drives and executing. LSU will be looking to pound the rock and keep them off the field.

Reality is the scoreboard. If you dominate someone statistically yet only manage 12 points and barely win, then that means you are inefficient.
Spin it as you please though.

your original point was correct (different teams show up week to week)
I was just pointing out that "barely beat Auburn" was silly when "almost lost to Auburn" would have been more appropriate and accurate.
LSU beat the shite out Auburn but still nearly lost the game.

You LSU guys are right. We have no chance. You'll beat us by 30. I just hope Manziel last past the first series.

I think it's a lot closer than that.

19 Penalties?
If you watched the game you would have seen the refs didn't want the Ags to win. There were several Pass Interference and holding calls that were the worst I've ever seen.

I've only seen about 2 LSU fans that think it's gonna be a good game (ie. not an LSU blowout)......the arrogance is comical. You play one good game all year and you think you are unbeatable again.

How in the hell do the Phaggies and LaTech manage to run FORTY-NINE more plays combined than LSU/SC?? Did that game go in 4OT or something?

LaTech was flagged 8-95 yds; while not unusual for us that's still a lot.
Did Tech really run 101 plays from scrimmage?
