Losing 8 players to the NFL, it clearly shows the youth with the LSU defense. LSU lost today because of blown coverages and players not staying in their lanes. The secondary is our weakness and until these youthful players pay attention to detail, it will be the offense carrying the defense every week.
LSU defense is too young!!

You are right necdawg--neither defense played worth a crap. Despite the defenses bad play the game turned to Georgia when the punt was fumbled.
This describes the UGA defense to a T
9 defensive players lost to the NFL. Two true freshmen and one red-shirt freshman started in the defensive backfield. The first sub was also a true freshman. Neither defense could stop the opponnent. Thanks for giving us the ball with 4 minutes left in the game. I was very worried when we gave it back to you with just over a minute and a half left.

He's the perfect example of what an ignorant bammerlite low-tide fan is,,, and will always be!
Therefore, I welcome his input cause it gives us all something to hammer on when we're bored....
The field goal kickers who missed 5 field goals and had another one blocked, have been the best kickers in the SEC and some of the best in the nation every since that game, including this year. You got outplayed and out statisticed. LSU winnig that game was nothing more than a fluke.. And your idiot ran out of bounds to make sure he didn't fumble away a sure field goal if he got his ass flattened. If Bama hadn't played for that Natty it woud have been a travesty since we were far and away the best team in the nation. 21-0, 21-0, 21-0, 21-0, 21-0, 21-0, 21-0. RTR!
