LSU fans couldn't have been more thrilled with the play of Blake Baker's defense in Week 1 against Clemson. The Tiger defense needed a facelift, and LSU was able to bring in a number of newcomers that made an immediate impact in the secondary.
With so much turnover, it was tough to know what to expect from LSU's new-look defense. Going on the road against a top-five opponent with a veteran quarterback was no easy task, but the Tigers didn't blink once. The defense put together an eye-popping performance that has the college football world talking.
Most notably, Virginia Tech transfer Mansoor Delane and five-star freshman DJ Pickett stood out in their respective LSU debuts.
