Simple reminder, when Georgia needed Chubb to get yards, he couldn't.
When the game was in question Nick Chubb was shut down. He struggled gaining anything. He couldn't pick up first downs and was shut down everytime he touched the ball when the game was in question.
When Bama was up by 4 touchdowns in the second half, he broke off an 83 yarder against a defense that was understandably not as focused mentally as they were in the first half. So please, don't cite nick chubb's stat line as proof that he just torched Bama on the ground. Nick Chubb was rendered ineffective

If LSU can avg. 4.0 yds per carry in the first half that would be considered success. And can't expect every carry to even be for positive yardage. It is possible LF7 breaks a long one (+20yd) or 2 with Sabans aggressive D and his skill sets getting to the 2nd level. But those have to happen relatively early to be a factor in the game, not just in his stats or Heisman run.

He didn't get much, but his QB was absolutely atrocious and there was zero threat of any passing, so it made it much easier to stop the run.
Harris is fully capable of burning a D with his legs or his arm, so the D has to account for that. LSU's O-line is superior to most teams as well. Other than Florida though, the Bama D is an obvious step up in competition from the rest of the defenses we have faced. It will be interesting.

Simple reminder, the QB that UGA played the UA game was benched for a 3rd string QB this past week (that was horrible in his own right). Good thing for LSU they have a QB statically tied for second QBR in the league and receivers who have played their best ball as the season has played out. News flash: Fournette isn't gonna have to do it all on his own. Oh and one more thing BH can run too if he needs too.
