As an LSU fan, what game are you most concerned of being a Bama fan?

6 in a row won't work here fellas, I don't get riled up like those people on the rant. However, I am curious about which game you are most worried about. Alabama seemed to have its least experienced team in awhile and they could have more than 1 or 2 losses. Especially if the QB situation is not settled.
So what games are you worried about as an Alabama fan? No flame here.I encourage discussion.

Probably OM because it would suck bad to lose to them 3 times in a row. The pressure will be on to win, and they have a good QB.

Probably Tennessee. I can handle a loss in Baton Rouge, though that might make the rant absolutely insufferable.

Tennessee worries me. On top of wanting to end the streak, they are reminded of how close they lost last season. They bring back a fairly talented team with a very good rushing attack. That game being in Neyland with a first year QB could be difficult.

May not work for you but Miles could lose many more and he still isn't going anywhere. May not have been your point but the fact remains..

I am not worried about Tennessee really.

Dobbs is okay and had a decent game against us last year, but they still only managed to put up 14 points. Hurd is good but I don't see him running all over us. They don't have any WRs to even speak of really. Our secondary is going to be sick, and Dobbs isn't going to beat us with his legs.

LSU on the other hand has a superstar at RB, and a a handful of talented WRs. Harris, while he doesn't impress me, has some experience under his belt and is capable of putting up a good game.

Their defense also has a lot of talent, and their new D coordinator is dangerous, if the hype is true.

Ole Miss and Tennessee. Why? Because they have the 2 best QBs in the SEC and you have to have great QB play to beat Bama. LSU still concerns me since it is being played in Death Valley but not as much as the other 2

Harris is going to have to beat us and Les and Cam are going to have to come up with something new. We will obviously key in on #7 and can shut him down. They are going to have to do something and have a legitimate threat through the air to have a shot.

1.) Ole Miss
2.) UT
3.) LSU

Im just not as worried about LSU as other teams. LSU won't beat Alabama until LSU veers away from the pro-style offense.

One team nobody is paying any attention to: @ Arkansas. Bielema could really reduce the heat on his arse with an upset victory. They've played us close a couple of times now and it's at their place and TSIO is the following week so we might be peeking ahead. Dangerous trap game in Fayetteville.

A game that I think will be a lot uglier than we would like is week 2 against WKU. They run the kind of offense that gives us fits. They probably get more points than they should and we win a cluster f*ck game something like 38-24 and won't be able to relax and enjoy it till late.

I'm most worried about Tennessee. Teams with good QBs are dangerous and Dobbs can hurt you....not as worried about Old Miss because they'll have the teams' total attention this year.

LSU, Tennessee, and Ole Miss, in no particular order, as all of 'em will be tough road games. That being said, Auburn is always such a wild card, year in and year out, so I'm usually always concerned 'bout that game as well...

If I had to choose one, I'd go with LSU since we play them later. I think Aranda as DC was a great pick-up but I think it may take a few games for the LSU D to adapt to his scheme; and by then, they will have had several games and should be accustomed to it. Same with the LSU offense...if they do modify their scheme and play with more balance next year, they'll be more acclimated to it by November as well...

I'm concerned about Ole Miss because we face them early and I don't see us having an established QB by then. From their side I only Fear Kelly. They are not as good as they have looked the last two years. You can't just expect them to continue getting freaky turnovers and bounces forever. But Kelly has an NFL arm that can be a problem.

I fear Tennesssee because they have just been getting better every year. The question is can Dobbs finally cross the line to winning the big game. I'm not sure if he has it in him.

I fear LSU because they still recruit well and have played a lot of young players for two years that should be coming into their own this season. They just need better play from the QB to be a contender. They can't just try to hand it off against us. You can't be one dimensional and beat the Tide.

As a Bama fan..... I'm most worried about getting our Softball team back where it belongs above Auburn and LSU. Also been way too long since we won a Gymnastics natty.



Football, I couldn't be happier. I'm trying to get worried about something, but nah, it'll be alright.

OM. Arkansas could be interesting if the new Allen kid is pretty good.
