Arkansas vs. LSU

Demarcus Love

14:30 1st - Bends at waist too much and on ground

below average footwork - crosses over with long steps

Quick hips and feet on angle block

good leverage, natural knee bender, keeps feet moving

Footwork needs polish ... long steps still crossing over ... very good agility and smooth athlete

excellent job picking up the blitz, plays with good speed, but footwork needs to be better

Blocking on heels, not balls of feet...gets a nice hand punch + good strength

Mallett: Strong arm, poor mechanics and footwork, not mobile and a bad athlete... Ball tends to sail - releases too early

needs to work on timing ... ball not coming out early enough

Barsdale - possibly missed assignment on blitz...bad vision/awarenes? ... has heavy hands...

Misses blocks again

natural knee bender and keeps butt low ... elite technician

Kelvin Sheppard: solid in pass coverage
