Ben Person
Ben Person. He's had good moments, but he's also had some penalty issues in games he was struggling in. The entire offensive line is really the x-factor. I want to see a domination of the vaunted LSU defensive line and a special episode of Myth Busters, featuring the tOSU O-line, debunking the SEC speed myth.  |

We've been waiting 3 years for it, but Mo Wells is going to do something spectacular before he leaves here. This could be the game. Get him the ball in space (God, I hate that term) and he could do some real damage.

Brandon Saine... He's got speed that can rival Holiday from LSU, even if the forty times don't prove it (According to the list out there), he gets a corner and GONE

I am gonna go further out on a limb here fellas. Jake Ballard. I think LSU will be concentrating on our wideouts too much, and though their LBs may be fast, they aren't 6'8, and can't go up with Ballard. Look for him to take pressure of Boeckman underneath, thus opening up Robo and Hartline deep.

The more this thread goes on, the more I notice the depth of our team. We've got a lot of unsung heroes that I think, will be the difference in the game.

Well, this is a tough topic...so many factors to choose from.
I really gotta go with the waterboys. I think it will be a deciding factor, which team's water personnel can replenish the players to their full ability. LSU's seem to tire out by the end, as seen in their overtime loses. Should be a crucial matchup to look out for.

Ray Small and Brandon Saine. If I had to choose one, I would choose Small.

This may seem like the obvious choice but if Boeckman plays well, the Bucks win. If he plays a Krenzel-like game and doesn't make the big mistake, I think the D will play good enough to win. Without his mistakes in the Illini game, the Bucks aren't put in a situation where they have to get the ball back they could have been running out the clock instead. On the other hand, if he puts our Defense in tough short field situations, could be another long NC evening. I just hope if we get down by a score that the coaches don't panic like they did last year. Don't abandon the run so soon like they did last year. Then the gator D-line just pinned their ears back and came after Troy. Makes for a long evening if that happens again.
