Seismic deliveries part of LSU-Auburn tradition

Seismic deliveries part of LSU-Auburn tradition

Great defense or bad offense? That is the lingering question in the SEC.
It’s 80 percent the former, 20 percent the latter.
It’s easy to poke fun at the 3-2 Starkville slugfest. I wasn’t quite old enough to remember Clemson’s decision over Duke by the same count in 1965. So Auburn’s win over Mississippi State was one to file away.But the fact is, SEC offenses aren’t that bad when they are freed from the smothering confines of SEC defenses.

True, the SEC Offensive Player of the Week was Kentucky sophomore QB Mike Hartline, who helped the Cats squeak by Middle Tennessee with a pair of touchdown passes. Not exactly a scintillating résumé.
