Man that was a late night last night watching my Tigers. I'm dragging this morning (oops, afternoon ). Anyway, UW put the Tigers to the test last night. Gotta say I was worried most of the game. Sarkisian sure has that program fired up and moving in the right direction, their fans should enjoy this season. They seem to have some talent that wasn't so obvious last year. I wish them all the best this year.
As for LSU, I didn't like what I saw on defense. UW amassed 269 yards offense in the first half alone and 478 yards total. Not good for a defense trying to come off a bad year. Chavis (the new DCoord) seemed to just sullenly stand around during the game and interacted very little with the players - is this his method of firing them up? Hope not. I know they didn't have much to prepare for, but the Tigers gave up 3rd and long over and over again (UT fans warned me about "3rd and Chavis"). If LSU hasn't corrected their problems on defense, it's going to be a long season I'm afraid (Tebow could win the Heisman during the LSU game alone ).
Jordan Jefferson, LSU's 19 year old QB, seemed to get better as the game went on. He still has a long way to go though. I hope he lasts the season, he took some nasty hits last night trying to run the ball. But, a win is a win and it was the first game of the season. Hopefully my Tigers will get better as the season progresses.
Overall some good games yesterday. Bama pulled it out the anus over VTech and Georgia just couldn't handle OkSt. And I don't care what they say, I know Navy had the Bucknuts sweating a little. Big wins by Michigan and Notre Dame should make their fans happy, right now. Too bad for Bradford and the Sooners - tough to lose your Heisman player in game one, and maybe your MCN hopes. I feel for ya.
Geaux Tigers!
