I think we need to "Lay the Wood" early in this game. Nothing cheap or illegal but put some big hits on Thomas & James to knock them out of the game (or slow them down). Either a LB (Baker?) running full speed for a big collision or Loston/Taylor. Even if it's at the tail end of a big gain (10-20yds), hit 'em hard.
Bust their asz every play just like wvu. Make them not want to try and tackle ware. Make them not want to catch the ball over the middle. Make them throw the ball away instead of standing strong in the pocket or taking off. Break their will to fight. Be dominant at every position. Play smash mouth football. Let them know , "we are LSU and we're here to win".
I still remember '07, when we opened the season with five straight games where the starting QB didn't finish the game!
TigerCliff, you are my new hero You hit on EVERY goddamn point you posted. You, my friend, are a steely-eyed missile man (Apollo 13 reference).
thanks bro - I enjoy this bunch of young men and look forward to many victories as we look forward to the next ball game !! :milesmic:
Duck you guys need to keep doing what you are doing !! Bring in the beef to Duck land and you are very close to being a nightmare for teams like LSU and Bama. Chip is smart and will see what the fix is for what he is missing. Don't want to play you guys again unless we have to ! Great talking to you guys over that last month !!!
The ducks are a couple of defensive tackles and a couple of offensive tackles from being a national champion
