No more trolling

Alabama's losses under Saban usually come to a great QB, Spread offense, or a QB playing out of his mind, or special teams disasters. Sometimes some combination of these factors.

For LSU to beat Alabama they'll need to score 20 or more. Alabama has been strong against the run all year. Alabama has been strong against the run as always under Saban. Alabama held Arkansas to 80 yards on 39 attempts. Arkansas has the rushing attack most comparable to LSU. LSU will need a performance equal to or better to their performance on the ground against Ole Miss as well as needing Jennings to play the game of his life. Can he do it? He hasn't shown the ability yet.

On the other side, LSU will have trouble limiting Alabamas offense. The plus side for LSU is that Alabama is banged up on the OL and at RB. LSU had issues against the run on D against MSU and AU. While LSU is much improved since on D, theyhhaven't seen a strong rushing offense since. LSU will have to sshut down Cooper. It can be done, as shown by Arkansas, but also requires a little help from Sims road struggleswhi c h sseemingly are bring worked out a la T (F) SIO. I just don't see LSU getting theperfect storm and ppulling the upset, though it is certainly possible and I expect a war.

Alabama 20
LSU 14

You need to sit out a few days. Come back on Thursday and we can reevaluate.

Stephen Garcia and Jordan Jefferson are probably 1st and 2nd team all-decade All-Americans. Choosing between the two is just splitting hairs

No way LSU scores 14 points (unless we throw 2 pic 6's). Your offense is one dimensional and we ain't UGA.

I said usually

In the 2010 JJ and JL played their best games and picked apart our secondary. Your defense and our inability to kick field goals won 2011 in spite JJ.

No one needs reassurance. Alabama lost to ole miss on the road and got off track because of 4 injuries. It happened. I think everyone knows Alabama is the better team and will just have to prove it over the next 3 big games. These threads don't do anything to provide insight people don't already know.

I just can't wait till the game. All the things you talk about remind me of how Ole Miss just thought all the matchups were in favor of them... Bla Bla Bla. Just get ready for the most hostile environment in sports this weekend. It's gonna be wild.

..and even though he won a large amount of games during his 4 years, he was still one of the worst 3+ year starting QBs in the history of LSU football.
