I know this is sarcasm, but I've also seen some people post it here as well.

Even when you weigh LSU's offense vs opposing defenses, they're still #3 in the SEC and over 40 yards above the opposing defense's average. Regardless of how you measure it, LSU's offense is getting the job done.

If someone were REALLY trying to make a point, I suppose I could try and figure out rushing defense vs rushing offense, but IMHO that's splitting hairs. Also, drill down TOO far and single game bias will start causing issues because we're still only talking a max sample size of 5 (and only 4 for LSU)
