1. Of course, LSU has played 2 conference games already and Bama and some others have played none. But . . .

    Total Offense = Alabama #1 . . . LSU #10 ( down from 9)
    Scoring Offense = Alabama #1 . . . LSU # 8 (up from 11)
    Passing Offense = Arkansas #1 . . . LSU #12
    Rushing Offense = Auburn #1 . . . LSU #4 (down from 3)

    Total Defense = Alabama #1 . . . LSU #5
    Scoring Defense = Alabama #1 . . . LSU # 2 (up from 7)
    Passing Defense = Kentucky #1 . . . LSU #9 (up from 11)
    Rushing Defense = South Carolina #1 . . . LSU #2 (down from #1)

    Punt Returns = LSU #1
    Kick Returns = Florida #1 . . . LSU #3 (down from #2)
    Punt defense = Florida #1 . . . LSU #8 (down from 5)
    Kick defense = LSU #1 (up from 2)

    Fumbles Lost = Kentucky #1 . . . LSU #11
    Fumbles recovered = LSU #1
    Sacks =Arkansas #1. . . LSU #3
    Tackles for Loss = LSU #1
    Turnover margin = Florida #1 . . . LSU #9


    The game one breakdowns still skew our pass defense numbers.
  2. How did LSU drop 5 spots in punt defense, when we only punted once and it was downed inside the 5?
  3. My mistake, they are #7 in the SEC, not #8 . . . and they only dropped two spots from #5.

    Florida #14
    Vandy #15
    Ole Miss #22
    State #24
    Georgia #47
    Auburn #50
    LSU #53
  4. OK. So, how did they drop 2 spots in punt defense, when they only punted once and it was downed inside the 5? :lol:

  5. not sure, but i think they only count punts where a return is attempted.

    so the punt you're referencing wouldn't go into the figuring.
  6. I thought it was based on net punting yards, so a pooch punt would hurt the stats.
  7. and Bama has yet to face a single opponent as good as any team that LSU has faced thus far...
  8. Penn St is a good team, other than that, i agree...
  9. Well LSU and Florida is the only team that can stop that crazy running game of the tide. Good thing we get florida a week after bama. So we can lose to bama and still get a bcs bowl. I see us playing in another sugar bowl this year honestly.
  10. Are you always this optimistic
