L.S.U vs.Georgia (It's on) Time for the Tigers to Pound you in your backyard

I'm not going to begin to try and analyze what Aranda has been doing, but it certainly does not look the same as previous season.

Much of the season has been spent without several starters. Outside of Chaisson, there is no one who can create a pass rush by themselves, so once Chaisson is doubled or they roll the QB away from him he's effectively neutralized. For several games players simply failed to maintain their gap discipline and the run defense was gashed. At the start of the season, the team as a whole was adjusting to the offense, including the defense who saw a lot of time on the field because the offense scored so quickly. I think you have to go game-by-game to look at the issues they faced, because there is no one reason why their performance has dropped.

Aranda just didn't become a bad coach one day.
