I have watched Bama and I have watched LSU this year.

I have to say Bama has the edge is O. Bama is more creative in the way they run the ball and the pass routes.
LSU has been all smash mouth up the gut runs, and then when they lull you to sleep they hit one over the top.

LSU has speed on D, I would almost say more than Bama.

But Bama's D is built to not only stop the run to to punish anyone who trys. Now can our DB's stay with Ruebn Rnadel? that will be the quetion.
IMHO

LSU simplified their offense this year to help the QBs.  That's likely what you're seeing.  Will it remain that simple for the Bama game?  Doubtful.  But they can't change the system very much in the short time left (and considering the idiots they have on offense).

The LSU D is quick and fast.  But I expect our slam-mouth offense to get some good runs on them.  Injuries on our O-line won't help.  Bad news about that today. 

Ruebn Rnadel?  We'll see if he can catch when the QB (Lee) is throwing to us; that's what he's best known for.

My biggest hope is Anthony Steen gets back before LSU. He helped improve our O-line some. This going to be a cow fight. One Bull buts heads with another Bull and which one pushes the best.
Exception: the fake punt or trick play Les Miles comes up with we ain't seen. RTR!

We should win this game by a comfortable margin if we don't turn the ball over.  TR has fantastic ball security.  Plus it is hard to wrestle the ball away from a man that bench presses the team bus.  But some of the receivers need to take a few lessons from him on how to carry the ball.  There isn't much they can do about beefing up their bench press between now and then, but they can polish their technique and hold the ball with both hands when contact is imminent.

LSU gets so many turnovers each game because they gang tackle.  The first guy holds him up and the next guy tries to take the ball away.  I bet there will be one play where they try that on TR and he gets away and breaks a long one.

I am glad we are #2 in this game. No reason to come out flat.

Or the guy goes for a 10-15 yard ride.

I can't wait until TR runs all over that little pip squeak honey badger.  We all know it is coming.

Honey Badger takes what he wants.

TR breaks who he wants.

Honey Badger TOKES what he wants.
