Well, or the long snapper, but noted.
And is Teddy Encalade some kind of weird combination of Teddy Veal and Terren Encalade?

Teddy has always been his nickname, too.

Huh (Hm? How would y'all note the sound of "oh, I didn't realize that. Interesting"? You know, kinds half grunt, half "oh I see")
I guess I always heard just "Encalade" and not his first name

The conference doesn't do a 4th team, do they?

No, but Steele has for years. I don’t know if the league even picks a 3rd team after the season.

You bring up a good point. I was focusing on offense and defense, but to have a 1st team long snapper speaks volumes compared to where we were just a couple of seasons ago.

Steele also has Tulane's RB core 48th. Four spots better than LSU.

Regarding the defense, will there be a huge drop off from the past two years or does this years defensive unit have the talent to actually be better than years past?

Phil Steele makes the argument that despite the losses on the d-line, it will the same or better because it wasn't very good statistically last year. He states that their 14 sacks total last year was bad and there is no where to go but up, as well as giving up more than 200 a game on the ground. I attribute those stats to both to who we played and how the games went. Specifically, we played pure running teams(Navy, Army), Pro style ball control teams(ECU, Cincey, FIU), and played from behind against passing teams(Memphis, Oklahoma, USF) which encouraged them not to pass.

I also blame that on a terrible defensive scheme that pretty much took away our best pass rusher and future NFL Darft pick, Ade Aruna

The new D-line will face a tough test week one vs Wake who has 5 returning starters on the o-line consisting of 4 seniors and 1 junior.

don't think it was the scheme.. Aruna had a bad ankle and was ineffective from the edge, so they moved him inside... then later in the year, guys like Johnson and Sample were holding their own on the outside, so Aruna was used to bolster a weak interior (as was Robert Kennedy)

We had 14 sacks as a team and rarely pressured the QB otherwise, so I'm not sure how much "holding their own" we were doing.
