I've looked at this. More telling is the Rushing D and Pass D(Yards allowed) separated. Biggest takeaway to me was that LSU passed some opportunities to put in some serious passing work in favor of brutalizing bad rushing defenses.


damn you are good.

They brought Harris along slowly.

Against Syracuse....LSU was close to blowing it open...but honestly, I think we had about 12-14 penalties that kept them in the game longer than we would have liked. A poorly played game, even though LF went wild...plus he had an 87 yard run called back....

Against State.....2 tds called back, and another long play that would have set LSU up nicely in State territory. Game was entirely too close...again, a shitload of penalties.

Eastern Michigan....this game, LSU could have won it and named their score...but they were focused on throwing first.....it wasn't a good game for that...for whatever reason....LF could have had 300+ had Miles wanted to go that direction. The LSU offense works much better with the run setting up the pass...not vice versa....after that game they got down to business with South Carolina and Florida........and have shown a very good trend line offensively....hopefully they will have some focus against Western Kentucky.....and continue that line....although I expect to see a lot of Guice and Williams that game...as soon as LF gets his 100 yards.

This is the one that stands out most to me. Run LF7 as much as he wants in the first half, get the score up and then pass. Then again, it's Eastern Michigan. Not easy to get up for these types of games.

Exactly. Bama has to get LSU off schedule and then contain and pressure Harris. All while keeping an eye on LF7.

I've expected to see this in almost every game so far, but LF7 is such a gamer that he just doesn't want to stop, nor does he seem to wear down. Maybe got a little gassed against Florida, but he recovers so fast.

Off topic, I'd love to know what his VO2 max is.

Of all the Heisman candidates I can remember, he most embodies what I imagine a candidate should be. Critical to his team, humble, well-spoken. Seems like a great kid.
