Todd Wade: 34-31 Ole Miss | Why LSU Gets Decided In A Place Nobody Is Looking

Every preview of LSU–Ole Miss has been about the quarterbacks, the coaches and the storyline. That's the wrong line of sight. This game gets decided at the line of scrimmage, and the Ole Miss front seven can only be what it's supposed to be if the back end stops giving away free plays. Three coverage busts against Charlotte all came off the same look — a faked bubble screen with the tight end leaking out behind it. LSU has an All-America tight end. You will see that concept again on Saturday night. One day to LSU. Steven Willis sits down with Ole Miss letterman and former NFL offensive lineman Todd Wade, who was on the 1997 team that went into Baton Rouge and won a game nobody gave them, for a conversation about the part of Saturday that won't lead any broadcast — the four front-seven players who have to have a day, the quarterback run wrinkle that's been sitting in a drawer for two weeks, and a coin-toss question neither of them could settle.
