Exactly one passing touchdown given up to an opposing QB in four games, and that one touchdown was Ole Miss' garbage time score. Only other passing TD was the trick play UT got on us. Insane.

Only giving up 175 yards passing per game in the SEC. And another 136 rushing in the SEC. Though it's skewed by Tennessee. It's 97 yard average in the other three SEC games.

Running QB's will hurt us all year because we over pursue the jerks.... Of course playing so much "Dime" doesn't help.

We don't have the LB depth to play much else... It will be interesting to see how well we defend the run next week.

Our line is sick and our backfield is sick...but with our lack of LBs I'm still amazed at how dominant our D has been. Really becoming a fan of Maye back there, the dude makes so many plays for us.

IMO Maye has made a bigger difference than Neal since his return. Probably the most improved player on defense.

How about 5 Dls for Lsu?

I really think that's something we have to look at this week. We won't be able to stop LF with 200lb DBs getting trucked all night.

I thought I saw LSU's FB get injured while watching that game yesterday, I wonder if he will be back? Isn't Anzalone about ready to return? It was good to see both Holley and Clark getting a good amount of reps last night, did Brantley ever return?

Powell is the one who is set to return. He was questionable for this game. Will likely suit up next week. No word that Anzalone's return is imminent.

Let this sink in for a moment: Gators are the only team in the country right now who have played at least two road games without allowing a touchdown.

The beauty of it is, with Vernon, Jalen, Quincy, et al, the only place to go is towards the safeties.... and those guys (Maye, Neal) are balling. Making a good case for DBU this year.

Nor will we. The best QB left is FSU's turd and he isn't very good either.

I don't know what you guys consider a good QB but Chad Kelly is #12 is passing in the country.

I think Kelly is a good QB. He had no chance against us with that offensive line.
