It can also work against very good QBs. ISU beat Heisman contenders with it. What made it so lethal for ISU in the Big 12 initially was the coordinators in the league. The spread offenses in the league were so wrapped up in having to have the big plays that they couldn't just be patient and give what the defense was giving them. They had to feed their egos and go after the big plays. Eventually they figured out that you can be patient and take the 5 yard out, 4 yard crossing pattern and 3 yard rush and move the ball right down the field. When you start trying to force it into that 8 man cloud you end up making big mistakes.
LSU went to the Thuggins school of defense. Regardless, Lawrence has been off and getting worse as the game goes on. Not used to being down I guess.
Can only imagine Bourbon Street tonight:
Good points....and the three man rush we had (miss you Lima already) could disrupt against the relative talent we were against most games for a couple years there. the third and longs are still just too hard to accept and that is the down we/Clemson/anyone will cease running it.
Dabo postgame: "I told the team at half-we've been down before. But, that was Ohio State."
The talent level of these two teams is just unbelievable. The thing that has held the SEC teams not named Alabama or Florida was they were undisciplined and poor quarterback play.
LSU went out and got a QB, bet Nebraska is just kicking themselves, thinking Burrows was not good enough to play for them, and turned him down.

I want a reason to not like LSU but I just can’t come up with one. They’re just ******* good.
OBJ is on the field handing out $100 bills to LSU players after the game. The SEC is just different.

Yeah but we can't pay players officially because that would ruin college sports.... Sure.

I think this OBJ thing kind of proves my concern. LSU and other schools have Boosters willing to throw that money around whereas ISU doesn't.
I'd love to see someone name 1 legitimate booster ISU has that would be willing to throw cash around like OBJ was.
