13t- Georgia
15t- Vandy
23t- State
23t- UK
30t- UT
38t- Arky
43t- UF
45t- A&M
53t- Auburn
54- Ole Miss
71t- Bama
82t- USCe
105t- LSU
109t- Mizzou

Mizzou is expected. Does Steele know that the point of defending the goal line is to stop the other team from reaching it? LSU might want to look into that correction.

That stat needs context to mean anything. Teams that give up big plays for TD have "good redzone defense". But if you play cupcakes and keep them out of the redzone until garbage time then you might have "bad redzone defense".

The fact that he and oldsarge post more about LSU than A&M. Just go search their history. And when you have to put "Cherry Pick" in the title of the post, it's obvious. I'm sure I could go "Cherry Pick" minute stats on everything that favors LSU over A&M. I'm just not that concerned about focusing all of my efforts and energy on A&M.

That's true, context matters.

A&M opponents have gone 16 trips to the redzone. 9 of which were a touchdown.

LSU opponents have gone 10 trips to the redzone. 9 of which were a touchdown.

I guess Bama sucks as well according to that. Way to cherry pick something that still has your team in the bottom half.

3 of the top 5 lost crucial games last weekend. No thanks.

Since we both allowed 9 touchdowns but LSU has allowed far fewer trips to the red zone it sounds like Steele makes them punt much more than Chavis.

And that is fine by me.
