Not quite, but they do run the ball a lot. I suppose that will help them a little on offense - but what the heck is their defense going to do?



They did lose their front 7, but their backups played as much as the starters last year. They have a lot of experience coming back.

Not a lot of depth though, and our OL is really good too. I think our talented depth wins out in the end and their inability to do anything in the air is what prevents them from mounting any sort of comeback.

What is the total on the game. Lsu with their new QB will probably play it conservative as well. Seems like a good under if the total is 45 or less.

I have read this a few times as though this means they didn't really lose their front 7. But if the backups took equal snaps last year, you would assume the backups this year will play as much. So now last years 3rd string and freshman will be playing half the snaps for the front 7. That's a pretty huge drop off in experience and possibly talent.
