re: Dispelling the myth of "3rd and Chavis"

3rd and Chavis is not an LSU deal it was a UT deal and we were warned about it but tried to dispel it just like you are now. Yes Les Miles 1937 offense doesnt always help, but it does keep defense fresh typically with TOP advantage.

LSU doesn't have a TOP advantage. In fact, LSU is very much middle-of-the-pack for all of D1 when it comes to TOP. Check the TOP rankings if you don't believe me, or any of the numerous threads on the issue. The LSU TOP advantage is an LSU fan myth propagated in a desperate attempt to find some benefit of Miles' offense. That offense can't be defended on it's own merits or success, so the LSU fan tactic has been to (falsely) attribute some of LSU's defensive success to the offense.
