Two things stuck out at me. 1 - USC's numbers look more like numbers for an average top 10 ten rather than the number 1 team in the country, and 2 - I'm surprised that LSU has allowed only 1 passing TD through 4 games. The #s on the LSU defense are SCARY good.
LSU's defense is scary good period. After watching Dorsey in yesterday's game I'm not convinced that he is not in fact Chuck Norris in an LSU uniform!
We need to set up a battle royale between Glen Dorsey, Chad Lavalais, Marcus Spears, and Chuck Norris.
dont want to be a buzzkill but we've yet to play good offensive teams. we've got 3 on the schedule--UF, UK and Bama. plus Ark will be interesting. UF- very interesting because tebow runs almost exclusively btw the tackles. with dorsey and favorite that wont be easy, plus hopefully thatll mean the safeties wont have to worry about it. gotta keep harvin in check. UK- in a way this is the scariest game. he's the best qb lsu will face. does not throw ints. will the D get to woodson early and often enough to make him screw up? i fear if lsu doesnt hit woodson enough that tamme will kill us. worst case scenario--early still out, UK sells out to stop the run (and do for the most part), flynn is off and there are several key drops. may have to go ball control to keep it out of UK's hands, and then its a close game. too many crappy things have to happen for this scenario though. Bama--most well rounded. decent qb. good OL. good wrs. good rbs. decent D. this is the game that is most likely to be a shootout because our O can hang 40 on anyone when clicking and their O is well-rounded.
