Listen guys,

we need to get off this pre-teen PMS "omg we lost to Memphis, fire everyone!" and "omg we almost beat lsu"

I'll state the obvious, LSU wasn't trying. Ed Oregon normally looks like a steaming tea pot, but for the first time ever, he didn't care.

LSU is a going to be in the playoffs, ole miss and arkansas are walk throughs for them, A&M they'll start getting serious since Georgia is next.

LSU run defense isn't good, but they don't care, they know with their offense putting up points, teams will be forced to pass. Their corners weren't good against Bama, so they went all out trying cover our guys in man to man and didn't pay attention to the run. We had a few long runs where D-lineman were in the position to make a tackle but didn't want to dive i.e. risk injury and partly because they thought someone int he secondary would make the tackle hint their safety chewing them out in the sidelines for the lack of effort. LSU is just playing to win (of course) but they aren't going balls to the wall to risk an injury. (google Bama and Tau).

Same thing Bama did last year, beat #4 LSU 29-0, #18 State 24-0, then Citadel put up 17 points against Bama. Does that mean Citadel has a better offense then LSU and State combined? Or the obvious, Bama is playing injury prevention at that point.

Will admit Joe did try (not running or risk injury) and although he'd never admit it, obviously he wants the heisman

I can agree with you that perhaps LSU's level of intensity might not have been what it might be in a bigger game. That's up for debate at the very least. But the most positive aspects of what we did last night (i.e. the gash plays by our offense) were excellent and done against a pretty good LSU unit. Nothing more, nothing less. Frame it up however you like.
