I'm ready for the thrashing because I know all of you are aware of my hatred for most of you....

Can you convince me that Alabama is better than LSU this year? Break down Alabama and LSU and show me where and how much better BAMA is at each position or each group (LB's, DL, QB). WR is obvious because of the experience......

On defense, I see Collins, DePriest, and Robinson stands out. Other than that.....I'm just not seeing it, other than recent history.

This is a legit thread. I'm sure I missed it in the off-season because I don't hang around on this board much.

fwiw, I think Derrick Henry may be better than Ingram and Richardson both.

LSU seriously can't get over their little brother obsession with Alabama.


Move on, swamp freaks. They're not interested.

Alabama is more talented in my opinion. However, it will all be decided on the field this season. Don't let your complex show.

A lot of people are sleeping on yall this year. I think yall can win the West if you have quality QB play.

Weak shite, Prom. Bama won't be the big dawg this year. We aren't Ole Miss or TAMU looking to be a spoiler. We need to beat the best.

Bama got Tim Williams, A'Shawn Robinson and Dominick Jackson back on the field today. Alabama does not have any players not practicing because of injury or suspension now. Observers of practices and scrimmages have said this will probably be Saban's best Defense he has had at Alabama. LSU will be tough, they always are.

I don't know that Bama is better. They have recruited a bit better but I don't think that's enough to make the difference. All of the "experts" seem to think Bama is better.

Just like every year recently, it will be an awesome game.






But seriously, Bama is going to frick LSU up.

That and 5 yrs of #1 recruiting classes should just about do it. If not.. then a reminder of that recent history...

In the 3 game win streak Bama currently holds on Lsu, Bama has outscored Lsu 80-34.

We're not as good as they are and never will be. Face facts bro, they own us. Just let it go, it'll be ok. We'll go on beating up on the rest of these arse holes and losing to Bama, it could be worse.

On defense, the only position group where LSU might have an advantage would be at corner. Alabama has talent there, but lacks experience. Alabama wins the group comparisons on the DL, linebackers and safety. On offense, QB is a push because no one knows how well or poorly either team's quarterback will compete. RBs are fairly close, but Bama has more quality depth. WRs to Bama, as you concede. LSU's OL is deeper and more experienced. It shapes up the same as it does every year, a fire fight, and it would not surprise me to see special team play determine the outcome of the game this year. I know we are breaking in a new kicker and punter and know nothing about LSU in this regard.

I am an Auburn fan. I'm here like I was before January of 2012. Bama is better than you guys.

QBs: Push
RBs: Bama, I prefer proven talent
WRs: Bama
OL: LSU

DL: Push/Bama (Bama has more depth at DL, LSU has the pass rush)
LBs: Push
Safety: Bama
CB: LSU

ST: LSU, until Bama proves it on the field.

LSU 3, Bama 3.5 IMO

If you have to say your own thread is legit, it is definitely not legit.
