A look at some defensive stats...

[Coach34]

We are indeed last in the SEC in passing yards allowed....BUT:

We lead the SEC in Passes Defensed
We are tied for 2nd in the SEC interceptions
We have had the most passes thrown against us of any SEC team
We are 2nd in the SEC in completion percentage allowed- just 50%
We are 6th in the nation in yards allowed per rush- 2.37- and lead the SEC (Bammer is 2nd at 2.67)
We are 2nd in the SEC in sacks
We are 3rd in the SEC in 3rd down conversions allowed

Got to stop giving up the big play in the passing game

Jamerson Love contributed quite a bit to that.

Didn't collins' preach "get the ball" this offseason? I wonder if we're cheating routes too much in attempts to get the ball.

Giving up big plays through the air has been our only weakness defensively- frankly, it's the only glaring weakness we've had on the whole team.

Got to get Cox healthy for A&M.

Would you not agree that part of the reason we've given up a good bit to the pass is because no one has been able to run on us?

They main Stat is 4-0. And a LSU asswhupping

I would agree. Also, we've led every team we've played pretty much the whole game- so everyone has been forced to pass on us at a really high rate.

That being said, the secondary needs to play better if we want to beat A&M.

Just bc a team can't run on us doesn't mean they should be able to pass. I have high expectations for this defense. I wanna shut teams down completely

I luv that GIF. Possibly the best stiff arm I have ever seen. 28 was eating Miles's green grass.
