re: LSU looks to turn the tide in the SEC West.

but after the disaster Co-DCs experiment and the subsequent hiring of John Chavis, it was understandable to expect the defense to improve in 2009... those changes haven't really happened in the offense for 2010. Crowton is still calling plays and Jefferson is still throwing the ball.

LSU won 8 games with the SEC's 4th ranked offense and 11th ranked defense. In 2009 they won 9 games with the SEC's 11th ranked offense and third ranked defense.

I expect the defense will still be in the top 4...can you really find 3 teams with better talent and coaching? I don't think so...and I expect the offense to be greatly improved, to the point where it is also in the top 4.

Frank Wilson and Billy Gonzales will be great additions to the staff IMO.
