Yes, they are our rival. You should compare yourself to your rival everyday or you will fall behind.

Identity may be a poor choice of words. Our identity is running it. I guess our lack of fluidity has caught my eye...most of which is due to playing tons of people though. I just hope we can sure up our passing accuracy and force LSU to respect the pass and not stack the box.
We have an offense weapon and his name is Dakota. Mullen takes him off the leash Saturday night. He's been told not to run as much in the first three games.
RunnningTGDF should not be a problem against LSU. For once, their defensive line is their weakness for the defense. JRob won't be able to break any long runs, but I see us knocking 4 to 5 yard runs at will. But LSU is going to come out pumped. So don't get down on the team when we have a few three and outs to start the game. This game will be 4 quarters long and we will be in contention all game. Our defense is going to have to force LSU to make mistakes.
I wonder what out perception would be if our scores had been:
65-0 over USM
56-34 over UAB
62-3 over UAB
Because the above
Would have happened is Mullen had wanted it to.
If it was the above we would have been seen as A&M part 2.
I may be totally wrong but watching LSU and us, I think we can win. It's hard to predict it because we've lost so many in the past.
I see ULM getting pressure with their guys and I plug in C Jones and P Smith in my mind and try to compare. I see them stuffing LSUs run for a while and I think we can so it too. I see them
Moving the ball and I plug in Dak.
27-17
Agree, our offense looks (to use a Mullen term) a little "herky-jerky" sometime. I think that's part of playing a lot of guys, not being completely pumped up for these games, and not using the whole playbook yet. Even still, we are the #15 offense in the country.
I've watched their games this year, they have been keeping their starters in for almost the entire time, particularly against Boise. Less so against Vandy and ULL. But again it was against Vandy and ULL.
And by the way our 'choppy' offense has more YPG than the vaunted Freeze machine.
I hate when media people start this kind of crap trying to look so smug and smart. It is hard to beat anybody 28 times in a row simply because the ball is freaking asymmetrical so to speak. He's FOS saying that beating KY 28 times in a row is basically easy. 25-3, 26-2, sure, but lining 28 straight times against anyone and not having the ball bounce their way just once so to speak and still beating them is a very big deal. It is not easy.
We scored 26 on them last year. If we can equal that I think we can keep them from scoring 26.
Only 5 passes have been issues Hack? There were more than that vs UAB and we had numerous passes vs USA that were open just not sec talent to finish. You let LSU get behind us like that we r toast
