    Well maybe that will somewhat drop UT down a little to LSU rushing status. Hopefully there advantage in the rushing game will be diminished some.

    That is why Pelini needs to blitz the crap out of him. If he sees continual pressure he gets rattled and screws up. Leak is the same way, but LSU didn't bring pressure Leak in the 1st half because Bo was worried about getting burned in the spread option and kept putting 3 DL on the front.
    I really didn't care for that call because Leak can get really rattled.

    Since UT is not spread option, Bo will stack the line up.

    They (UT) don't have a rushing advantage. We are very similar teams. Each with a strong passing attack, and not so strong of a running game. Also we are very closely ranked with them on pass defense. These teams mirror each other in many ways.

    I agree with you about Pelini sending in the kitchen sink. I'd do it early and often. However, I gotta disagree with you on Leak. We sacked him 6 times in 2003 by committee (By Landry, Lavalais, Spears, Williams, and Daniels), yet he still picked our best defense ever apart for our only loss. Thats an intimidating bunch to be hitting you all day as a true freshman. Yeah we should have pressured him more this year, but I don't think he's as easily rattled as people might initially think.
