How are you and others so sure about this? No elite experienced linebackers, pedestrian front line (no pre-season all SEC). Plus, lost two best DB. And to boot you are putting in a new system and scheme and I'm not sure you have any idea about how hard it is to pick up the difference between 4-3 and 3-4.

Plus for all the hype about defense last year, LSU got pushed around in the trenches badly by any team that was physical (they did better against E-W team offenses). Auburn for example just ran the ball straight up the middle and were never stopped.. it looked like bowling with LSU D-front as the pins.

I'm not saying LSU D will be bad this year, maybe so, maybe not ... just that no one knows, not a clue, nada, nothing... unless you depend on pure faith bowing at the church of "coach" and automatically shut your eyes and ears to any "sin" of questioning a position weakness in the 2017 LSU team. Oh, wait.... nevermind
