Auburn should be a good enough team to lose 1 defensive lineman and not play as badly as they did.
Me thinks you have not been paying attention. It wasn't just Lawson.
Our 4 best defensive players are: Lawson, Adams, Mathews and Garret. Only 1 of those suited up Saturday.
In addition, Countess and Hoseley went out early (targeting in second quarter and injured knee first possession of game) - two starters in our secondary.
To recap, the following STARTERS on defense either did not play at all or played approximately 1 quarter:
Lawson - DE (our best DE)
Garret - LB (our best LB)
Mathews - SS (our best safety)
Countess - CB (maybe our best CB)
Hoseley - CB (2 year starter)
That is 5/11, almost half our D and we are not especially deep on defense as it is.

Ok, I didn't know that. What will those 5 players status be on Saturday?
That definitely changes things from the perspective of LSU O v Auburn D, which while healthy I think LSU can put up at least 21.
But, still the Auburn offense worries me, especially because LSU is known for speed(I attribute last year to Welter lol). I would honestly think Auburn's offense had a better chance against Bama. So can Auburn with JJ score enough is the question I think

Add JR and Young missing on O. We were down 7-8 of our most talented players by half time. I don't want to think about this weekend if we play with half of our starters injured.

I understand they may all be back but what are the assumed health percentages on these guys? If Lawson was in a boot last week, no way he is near a 100? What are Garret and Mathews out for? And was Hoseley's knee a minor deal?
