But the eighth-ranked Tigers (8-2) are feeling pretty good about winning three out of four games against ranked teams in the past month, their new-found offensive balance and their prospects heading into their last two games of the regular season.
“I think our team has been able to overcome some adversity, some injuries,” tackle Josh Dworaczyk said before practice Monday. “We’re starting to play like the team we had all hoped for in the beginning of the season.”
LSU entered the season as the defending SEC champion and finished No. 2 nationally after last season. The coaches voted them No. 1 in their preseason poll, and The Associated Press would have had them in its top spot too if All-America cornerback Tyrann Mathieu hadn’t been kicked off the team before the poll came out in August.
After a sluggish start that belied a 5-1 record, the Tigers won consecutive games against No. 3 South Carolina and No. 20 Texas A&M to end October.
Dworaczyk said the open date that followed was the catalyst for an improved passing game that showed up in a last-minute 21-17 loss to No. 1 Alabama two weeks ago and continued in a 37-17 victory against Mississippi State on Saturday.
“I think that off week was when we were able to pull together and say, ‘OK, this is the offense that we’re going to be, and this is the identity that we want to have,’” Dworaczyk said. “And then be able to go out and execute it for two weeks, it’s been a pivotal moment for our team.
“We’re playing much better at the right time. You want to make sure that you’re gaining speed throughout November, and to be able to do that has been very successful for us.” Read more...http://theadvocate.com/
