re: How is the Lsu pass rush?

I know sacks don't always tell the whole story so that's why I'm asking. I see Rasco leads the team with 3 and nobody else has more than 2. Are they getting any sort of pressure?

The pressure has been ramped up since Chief started using multiple sets and schemes. You'll see some 3-3-5 in obvious passing situations, a move that has proven effective these past three weeks. Also, the Tigers probably lead the SEC in passes batted down at the line. One thing to remember regarding sacks is that LSU has played a number of team with running QB's which is partially the reason for only 15 sacks. However, a great number of the other 38 TFL have been QB's tackled btl on called running plays. They're getting better, these young Tigers. Only two seniors start on defense. Only three on offense, for that matter.
