LSU 23 Vanderbilt 9

So this wasn't a pretty game, literally or in the playing style, but it was better executed than last week. The defense really did look better, but when they miss tackles it turns into a 26 yard run. That needs to be fixed. Props to Harry Coleman for knocking the living crap out of some people. Nothing better than those bone crushing hits. One thing that really is starting to bug me, is the offensive play calling. I don't understand why they refuse to throw the ball down the field. Jefferson has a cannon and we all know it, but we sure as hell ain't seen it. Then the use of Rueben Randle is bugging me too. I see #2 go in and line up at receiver just to watch the dude block... Ummm, how about NO! He was the #1 recruit because he can catch the dang ball and make defensive backs look like deer in headlights. The defensive line looked better at times. Drake Nevis had a hell of a game. Vandy had the center and the guard on him and Nevis still made 4 tackles and 2 of them for loss. The TigerNation however did the satisfacion of seeing Russell Shepard play. He lined up in the Wild Tiger 3 times for 27 yards, and man, that guy is quick. Everyone kinda was pissed when he caught his first pass only to fumble it :(. But I'll live.

Dog House: The O-Line, They were getting dominated by Vandy, and I promise you, they will face worse

Brownie Points: Chavis, The Defensive showed serious improvement in one week. I think that they are on the right track to getting to the LSU defensive we all miss and love.

Game Ball: Keiland Williams, Vandy was able to stop Scott, but not Williams who had 10 carries for 72 yards and 2 TDs.
