re: Hypothetical: If These Two Teams (Bama LSU) Played 10 Times...

I'm of the opinion that bama isn't as close to lsu as they think they are this year. Lsu wins 7/10.

Agreed.

Not to be a homer, I just honestly think special teams and depth are huge obvious advantages for LSU.

But the less obvious advantage, or at least the one talked about the least, is LSU's weapons at WR.

I just don't think McCarron and his receiving corps have the ability to attack LSU's secondary. LSU's outside weapons can at least give us the ability to challege an albeit great Bama secondary.

Everyone says Bama wasn't prepared for JJs option, which is a huge fail by the Bama coaching staff IF true, but what about that game being JJs first real action all season? He was not poised to throw the ball either. Now, we will see more of an ability to get the ball to our receivers now that JJ has had real game and practice time, the same way he did in 09 and 2010.

Bama is a great team and would win a few, pretty much only if Trent breaks off a couple of long TOUCHDOWN runs, otherwise, they can't really sustain long TD drives against our D IMO. Or if Bama's D scores TDs on turnovers which could happen.

Just my take.
