If anyone with authority or skin in the game thought this, we would no longer be a member of the SEC. This is a step too far.

The results favor your assessment, however, I don't think we would have lost that game if we had executed on less than 4 plays on defense not including the 2 point play.

I disagree. I think LSU is a better team than KY. Way better statistically. It being a road game gave KY a large advantage.

Run the ball, stop the run. Tight coverage. Complete lots if quick throws.
To make a determination about what would have happened if Taylor played requires too many assumptions about too many things. It was the same offense run against our defense. Taylor likely wouldn't have had any more time than Pucket. But that is also an assumption.

It was a very strange game statistically. I don't remember another one like it. We win the game 31-0 but we had less time of possession than MST. And MST is a hurry up offense. That makes it harder to predict a winner, IMO.

I used to be a BIG NFL fan. Had season tickets a few rows up from the field for 15 years. The officiating, or lack of quality thereof, was the biggest factor in not renewing again. Subsequently, I don't follow the NFL at all.

For a sport, poor officiating has always been in the eye of the beholder. But if it gets obviously poor, it's a cancer. That feeling of being cheated, by everyone, cuts deep.
Hell the Big 10 might get 4 teams in. With the parody, and lack of depth that exists it will be who is healthy enough to win a game.

Sanky, knows he has a loser of a case (I don't want to be in court?) (drop the suit then) so he, in the response filing, is expanding the scope (now it's about our overall compliance with the rules in general) hoping to muddy the waters and find something that sticks.

This guy wants LSU to kiss his butt, because he exposed himself as an insecure, ignorant, little tyrant.

He isn't going to get what he wants.

Both is the answer. It's the execution and situational choices that have to get better.

You're not wrong but it is way too late to be reticent about it. This is a good team but, is one that isn't performing like one at times. Not unlike Kelley's teams but much better. We're really close and closing.
You are ignoring the obvious here. I will try to not join the chorus of micro managers making declarations about who is responsible and what needs to change.

My only point here is that the decision to play a "keep everything in front of us" defense, and when, is more likely than not a HC decision. There are useful applications for this kind of alignment. The issue is this group doesn't execute it well. The idea is to not let the receiver get behind you. It is not to let them run to the open spot. Once the ball is snapped and movement begins the job is to close the cushion as quickly as possible hopefully baiting the QB into throwing into tight coverage when it looks different pre snap. You also don't stay in it if the QB doesn't hesitate and takes the 10 or so yards you are giving away.

Another point is, don't use it if you can't pull it off. Guaranteed there are other options. We'll probably see them soon.
Ha! If we beat Mississippi State, I'll forgive him.
So does the KY team have non slip shoes and sticky fingers? I know our guys will bring what we have.
He started last week against McNeese. No way he sits intentionally for an SEC road game.
This dude seems to have a one track mind. It's "punish players that want to transfer" that is dominant. This is still just a proposal.
For promotional & management services,...they fundamentally mooch off the league teams. We do it voluntarily. So are you happy with the promotional efforts and management efficiency,.....lately?

The O/U is 51-1/2 with LSU having an 8-1/2 point advantage in that. That leaves 43-1/2 points to divide.

Obviously, these are betting line predictions but the likelihood of KY scoring 30 or more is more optimistic than all estimations. Holding LSU to less than 20 doesn't feel right either.
Nobody really talks about it because only the coaches know for sure what is intended. It doesn't always look like it supposed to.

My personal observation is, it's multiple, they do both gap overload where the back follows an extra man, and zone featuring the cut back for runs between the tackles. He probably has his own nomenclature that identifies how they try to create space to run there. Unless there is an obvious weak area to exploit they seem to vary and mix things up. So much depends on the opponents alignment and execution that it's really not worth the effort to try to figure it all out unless you have the time and video replay to work with. And then they will likely change things up a bit depending on the opponent.

There are other blocking schemes used when they play action that seems to be a gap that the RB or QB can choose from.

They also use pulling guards and tight ends, and zone to take out pursuit for plays that are planned outside the edge. I haven't seen a lot of zone read but they do play action a lot.
Beyond the obvious, that he didn't play his best, you're deciding this about him in a game he played against McNeese?

Tough room here.

The sample size is way too small to really know anything. There are lots of mitigating factors such as when, who, and where on the field the plays took place.

This is clearly a coaches decision. They see them every day with lots of variables.

What I know for certain is that we could be in trouble if either one has to take over against quality SEC opponents.
