Interestingly enough, Georgia is a top 10 team in passing yards allowed per game. LSU is 45th - behind Tennessee, Bama, Florida, Kentucky, and Georgia.

A lot of that is scheme.

We face a decent QB and we go 2 high safety with nickel/dime looks. We basically let them run the field to the red zone with numbers (missouri ran an 11 personnel against our nickel look. If they weren't successful running the football, something would be seriously wrong with them).

Then we face a bad passing team and we shut down the run and force them to throw (killing them on 3rd downs).

We have more stars back there but they're young.

The bigger question is who is the better quarterback, Fromm or Burrow? The consensus would probably agree that it's certainly Fromm. Based on that, Fromm struggled mightily against LSU. Burrow probably played his best game as a Tiger against UGA. So you tell me..


Florida should be ranked higher than LSU.

Well, they started Tyson Campbell from day 1 and he's not gotten any better. Stokes has overtaken him.

People are excited for him because he's one of those track guys that is actually fast with pads on. He should have started earlier. On the other hand, he's just a rs freshmen, so we are going to see him get tested, but I like what I see. 6-1, 185 with real elite speed.

The safety play has been subpar all season. They just haven't been making many big plays.

He definitely played poorly against LSU. It happens. He had a bad game. Georgia in general had a bad game.

Burrow played well against us. He doesn't make mistakes normally. He is a heady QB. Knows when to pull the ball down and run. He seems to run the ball more later in the game. Lulls you to sleep handing off...handing off...then he pulls the ball and goes around end. I'm not convinced his arm is very strong, but his intangibles seem to be off the charts. Smart player.

Stokes looks better in coverage. But there is a lot more to being a corner than just covering a receiver. The issue with track guys is often tackling and supporting the run defense which is half of the defense.
