The stoutness of Auburn’s defensive line was pretty much the only positive takeaway from their game against San Jose State.

That's the ingredient for 4-5 losses.

What about the gamecocks at 129th?

You need to hit “return” at least 17 times between LSU and South Carolina

I was shocked to see LSU ranked 97th after playing Southern U....

They also have an atrocious offensive line. We should have been much better. We will see what our run defense really looks like this week.

Were 28th nationally against P5 teams.
38 teams are giving up under 100 yards a game currently because of early OOC games against weak teams.

6-6 at best with that schedule

It's also what happens when one of the best D linemen in the country goes out for the season early in the first game.

It’ll get better.. y’all just had the misfortune of playing a heavy run team your 2nd game.

Southern was losing 51-0 at halftime. Their QB barely throws the ball. Yes they piled up some rushing yards at the end of the game when walkons were playing. Their first offensive score was in the middle of the 4th quarter. They went 3 and out on 8 of their first 11 drives and only threw the ball 16 times despite being down 37-0 after the first quarter. 138 of their 262 total yards came on their last two possessions. FSU had 132 yards on 37 carries, which is probably a better indication of how good LSU's rush defense is than what they did against Southern.
LSU won't have a great rushing defense because their linebackers are just not very good, and losing their best defensive player on the line to a torn ACL didn't help either, but you're not going to get an indication of much in a 2 game sample size.

You played FSU in game 1. After week 1, you were ranked 72. Allowing 133
You played southern and your average allowed actually increased to 165 yards average.
You allowed Southern 200 plus yards on the ground...
Southern..

None of that matters.
It was southern. They rushed it for 200 yards.

So they had about 100 yards of offense and 0 points in the first half? And you watched that and that was your takeaway? Because they had one drive where they got more than one 1st down? Ok 
What you posted doesn't make what I said untrue

UFs rush defense will get a lot better than that. That Utah QB scrambling for 90+ yards has it low right now.

That’s right where most (sane) people put us this year.

1- The title and the thread is about run defenses.
2- This was not the 2010s Bama team you played. It's SOUTHERN.

A little early in the year for rankings of any kind to mean much.
Posted on 9/13/22 at 11:48 am to Jjdoc
We went up 44-0 before they got 25 yards of total Offense
Sorry this means nothing.
