LSU had one of the most dynamic offenses we\u2019ve seen, maybe since Joe Burrow was around<\/strong>.\u00a0 That\u2019s two good ones for the Tigers, under two different coaching staffs.\u00a0 Luke Fickell\u2019s 1st<\/sup> year at Wisconsin was not a rousing success, but his plan is to build something sustainable.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

That sounds funny, given that Wisconsin has been solid for years, but Fickell is changing the way they operate, especially offensively.\u00a0 Are these two teams thinking well beyond this crossroads bowl encounter?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ReliaQuest Bowl Predictions and Best Bets: LSU Overview <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

LSU\u2019s offensive numbers were scary<\/em><\/strong>.\u00a0 They averaged over 46 points per game, 6.25-212 rush yards per game, and passed for over 4,000 yards.\u00a0 Jayden Daniels couldn\u2019t be stopped, with a 40-4 touchdown to interception ratio, a completion figure of over 72%, and an incredible rush stat line of 1,134 yards, with an 8.4 per-carry average and ten rushing touchdowns.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He\u2019s gone, replaced by Garrett Nussmeier, a more traditional QB.\u00a0 He could be fine passing the ball but the loss of having a dual threat QB will be felt.\u00a0 The million-dollar question is whether future NFL WR\u2019s Nabors and Thomas will suit up.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They combined for over 2,600 yards and 29 touchdowns.\u00a0 If not, WR production will dip significantly.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can LSU’s Defense Hold Fast?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As for the defense, LSU has work still left to do.\u00a0 The mediocre 4.45 rush defense of 2022 gave way to a 5.0 per carry figure this season.\u00a0 The 57% pass defense got much worse, up to 63.5%.\u00a0 Wisconsin is hardly a dynamic offensive team, but LSU is unlikely to suddenly get this defense right.\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far, only one defensive starter, a CB is in the portal.\u00a0 LSU\u2019s sack ratio was 26-22.\u00a0 Kicking was at 12-15.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
