The really interesting thing, to me, is the odd skewing of both teams' defense/rush yds allowed, especially in conference play - which I realize is somewhat 'normal' against the bottom half of the conference, but each team held decent rushing teams down (OSU held Michigan to 15 on the ground, Wisconsin to 12, for example, and LSU's overall rush D was very solid) while each team had one massive blow-up in rush D leading to a loss to a great rushing team (OSU gave up 260 to Illinois, LSU 385 to Arkansas, which is rough even accounting for triple-OT).

I don't know that there's much you can draw from isolated incidents, especially given the caliber of runners faced in each game, but I think the "strength-on-strength" rushing game will be interesting to watch. If LSU dominates that like the SEC fans assume, it'll be a wipeout.
