This is pretty normal size for corners.


As a whole unit, they are small.

But relative to LSU WRs, they are tiny. Which in football is a matchup issue.

How do you justify that?

Total Defense:

Oklahoma - 24
LSU - 32

Scoring Defense:

LSU - 27 (21.2 ppg)
OU - 50 (24.5 ppg)



That stat could not mean less. We don't really need to play aggresive defense when we are up 3 scores at half against teams similar to the ones that take ya'll to the wire. When the committee punished us for bringing this mentality by dropping us to #2, well... just look at the last two games.

If they are allowed to mug the shite out of our receivers they might do ok.

If they are calling pass interference it's over before it starts

They also hold and PI alot. They get away with Big 12. Should have lost to Iowa State. The guy was mugged in the endzone. They held Baylor WR all day

OU is 116th in penalties. They don't get away with shite.

That said, I do agree that they hold and PI a lot. Trying to make up for being small.

“Stats are like bikinis, they hide what is vital”

Then I look through this same message board and see LSU fans touting stats all over the place.

Anyway, our secondary is small and will struggle. This is nothing new.

This is not correct. They have almost 1000 penalty yards.

Justin Jefferson finna eat then. This LSU offense presents so many problems. If you sit in zone coverage all game Joey is gonna pick them apart. It also means they likely won't have enough hats in the run game and will a gap short in run fits. CEH finna eat too.
