What we must do to beat UGA
Posted on 9/28/09 at 5:11 pm
Posted on 9/28/09 at 5:11 pm
Rather than sit and whine about how crappy our #4 Tigers have looked (and, yes, they have looked pretty crappy), I've decided to write what I think they must do to win Saturday against Georgia.
1) Pressure Joe Cox - If the Tigers can get pressure the UGA QB, he will make mistakes. With a 9 TD's to 5 INT's, Cox has proven that he will turn the ball over if people are in his face. If it weren't for Cox's propensity to throw INT's, the Arizona St. game would not have been close. Chavis needs to unload an aggressive blitz package in this game if the Tigers have any hope of success.
2. Throw the ball down field - Georgia has shown an inability to stop the deep pass against the likes of South Carolina and Arkansas. The Arkansas game was like a track meet. If Jefferson can actually get some time to throw, UGA is weak against the down field pass.
3. Win the field position battle - LSU has given teams a pretty short field to work with, and the defense has done a fairly good job of stopping teams despite defending a short field. This must stop if LSU is going to win. The Georgia Offense, not unlike the LSU offense, is still very inconsistent. UGA can't consistently put together long drives against the Tiger D, and it's imperative that LSU work out the kinks in the kicking game before Saturday.
Any other thoughts?

4. Run the fricking football.

No stupid mistakes on special teams

Don't let people get behind us in the secondary

I left out running the football because it seems obvious to me that we can't. If we do, that'll be a bonus.

PRAY!
If the Tigers play on Saturday like they have played the last 4 weeks, they will get their hats handed to them.

Being that we cant get pressure on ULL's qb, I think you can scratch out getting pressure on Cox.
What we must do IMO is:
1) keep making small improvements on defense and slow down their offense. Cox, will make mistakes and UGA will turn the ball over.
2) Capitalize on their turnovers
3) Use Shep more!
4) Use Shep More!
5) Use the Deep Ball! Jefferson looked to be better at throwing the deepball against MSU so we will have to keep trying.
6)NOT TURN THE BALL OVER!
7) STOP RUNNING THE I FORMATION! That is not our strength this year. I say we run it 2-3 times max and one of those being a deep play action.

- ditch the I formation.
- pass to set up the run.
- keep RS on the field for the majority of snaps, at either QB, RB, or WR.
- blitz a CB every now and then.
- play man-to-man 90% of the time.

Get great play from our DBs and pass the ball. IMHO UGA has more problems to work out than LSU.

tackle soundly

The only way we get that done is if we start stunting.

4. Score more points than Georgia

1. Must win in the takeaway margin
2. Block
3. Better Special teams play
4. RS needs to be somewhere on the field 1/2 the
game
UGA's defense stinks so hopefully we can do something offensively.

Penalties are killing this team, seriously.
Let's clean it up.

We have to make them pay for stacking the box and take advantage of Ga.'s weak pass D.
