Official LSU vs. OU Thread (a.k.a. Boomers lose to Tigers again!)
Plus, LSU has actually played Jalen Hurts pretty well. Where Jalen has beaten them is when the defense has played 70+ snaps by the 3rd quarter and they just wore down. Tackles become arm tackles. PAsses defenses become completions. Completions become big plays.
Now, if the defense is worn down by the 4th quarter, it's because the offense has scored 7 TDs.
The way they have struggled with terrible teams this year, I don't see how they feel they actually have a shot. These silly stats they keep throwing out and then assuming that the second half of the Ole Miss game is representative of the LSU defense as a whole. If LSU plays terrible, then maybe. I just don't see LSU playing terrible, though. These dudes have been dialed in the last month and now they're finally in a position to realize their goals. Baylor did a pretty good job on OU and I can't think of a single player on Baylor's defense that would see significant playing time, much less start on LSUs defense.A friend told me he was confident OU will win the Peach Bowl. My response was a little too easy:
