re: How did the defense get so bad so fast?

Bama was giving up 21.5 Pts a game and 386 yards a game before Ole Miss. Not exactly terrible
Kiffin knows Bama inside n out, he knew how to attack Saban's Defense.

LSU lost a lot of ppl, just like us.

We lost our Rock in the middle -Reese- Our best DTs -Shuler/Campbell-, Best pass rushers -Greenard/Zuniga- and our best Corner. We never had a good safety and now its showing up more.

We don't have a DT who gets a push in the middle, no consistent pressure off the edge and our LBers are just not good. Safeties still suck and teams are targeting Wilson as well.

Carter needs to be SDE, not a damn DT.
Get those young DTs in the game, Slaton should be a rotational player, not out there on 3rd down.
We've ruined Burney with all the swapping him around between positions bs. Simplify it for him and let him hunt.
Diabate should be off the edge from a backer spot on 3rd down.

Where's Wingo, Hopper ect? If we don't see new faces on the defense this Saturday that'll tell the story that Dan was full of shite with his "We're evaluating everyone" talk
