I promise I did not play on defense for LSU this past weekend
Always two, there are. No more, no less.

Another 60+ point win in our season opener, what could go wrong???

I really like our defense
Our punter can flip the field for sure
I really hate Warby Parker and Vuori

Remember, this was a 61-6 victory was against Central Arky which is probably the best team in that state.
Good but early:
Pribula but lost some QB depth behind him.
Linebackers are solid.
Wide receivers are exceptional! I didn't see a drop all day.
RBs.
So-so but early:
Defensive Line - should be a strength.
Secondary - I expect good things but we'll see.
Offensive Line - Was only so-so. Lets see what they do against USCe on the 20th.
Bad but early:
The injuries at QB and kicker.
TBD:
Special teams - lost our kicker to injury for season. There is depth but unproven.

Good assessment. I couldn't have said it better.

Very possible LSU football never loses another game.

LSU:
The biggest question mark for LSU all Fall Camp has been the Offensive Line which I would grade a C+ for the game. Nuss played great, didn't force the ball downfield like he's been prone to do in the past. The running game was also a big surprise. Fans have been told all through Fall Camp that the defense was great and, after Saturday night it is. I haven't seen a defense at LSU like that since for a while as they were flying toward the ball, very few missed tackles and tight coverage in the secondary. It was a very pleasant surprise to say the least! Special Teams also seemed to improve dramatically. Just a good game overall!

O-Line isn't as good as we've been led to believe.
Defense needs work, especially against the run.
On the upside, our two new transfer WRs are really good and Marcel Reed seems to have improved at throwing a football.

Great defense. Scary bad and predictable offense with a frightened QB. My win expectations went from 10-2 to 9-3. Hopefully it's not worse
Posted on 9/2/25 at 3:21 pm to Capn_Bevo
Yeah I had Texas 10-2 winning that game...

Yes every fricking person said Dabo is not a great coach, and Clemson is overrated in a shitty ACC.
Show me where anyone on the rant said… they’re really great and this will be a tough game.

Damn, maybe the rant should...I dunno...rank teams professionally. Or maybe, just maybe, we should let those who do this for a living rank them. These are the same people who said Bama was gonna be good(because by rant, we all know you mean Bama board).
Maybe I should just post up where they were ranked 4th.

They did exactly what they were supposed to do.
Which, being a Vandy fan, is hard to process.

Uh, sorry sir but he was referring to SEC teams…. Not OOC nomads.

That's not fair to the dog.
He put in more effort getting that out than Alabama did.

Our oline is going to be our problem again this year, albeit, not as bad as last years, which was one of the worse Ive seen in 25 years of watching OU football.
Defense will have to win games for us until Oline gets their shite together.
I think that needs some clarifications.
Pass blocking was good. Run blocking wasn't. But even then we did have several guys out.
Defense needs to be solid as they will be but offense is still a lot better than last year. We actually have some receivers who aren't in ICU, big improvement at TE, and a huge improvement at QB.
It was only an FCS team but our offense didn't look good against anybody last year.

Offense: OL looks big and nasty. QB can run like the wind, made all the right reads and made a couple big time throws when he had to. Freeze called an excellent game by sticking to what worked. NO TURNOVERS! They killed Auburn the past few seasons.
Defense: Safeties and LBers lost in coverage too much. Awful tackling. DL looked decent. Will have to play much better,but Baylor's QB and receivers look pretty good, so maybe the secondary can clean things up.
Special teams were decent. Had a kick returned for a TD. Pleasant is a weapon back there. Punt team with a couple penalties for not being lined up right.
Overall: Good with some stuff to clean up before they can be great.
