re: Is Notre Dame's defense better than LSU?

are they in fact better than LSU's or the other conference defenses they have played?

ND's front seven is really good and very big. I don't believe they have the speed that LSU does though. We hear this every year. The best defense outside the SEC is better than the defenses in the SEC and every year, people are surprised at how dominant and fast the SEC defenses are. Is ND's defense good? yes. Are they better than LSU's? maybe, maybe not. Bama can tell us after the game.
