Just curious.
I have my doubts about one of Bama's aspects of the game. Wondering what you guys aren't worried about?

LSU running the football with much success. I'm more worried about giving up the big play via the pass.

concerned with ycovering your wr. I like hightower and upshaw vs anyone of your OL. If Chapman can eat two blocks I think ourr LB wreak havoc, if not a very long day. Your wr are too good to cover for long periods of time. We have to hit your qb regularly

LSU has run with very good success against your defense the past 3 years. We have a better O line this year and better backs.

i look for us to throw a bunch of short passes to RBs and TEs early on to try to spread your LBs out and maybe make the hesitate just a second on running plays.
I also would not be surprised at all to see us in a ton of 3WR or more sets in order to put some pressure on your DBs and LBs in the passing game. Hopefully LSU's coaches don't plan on just trying to jam it up the middle. I'd like to see us be creative in the passing game to help slow down the LBs and safeties in the running game.
ETA:
I foresee at least once in the game where a TE or RB sneaks out of the backfield wide open on a play action due to over aggressiveness by your LBs.

History should have you thinking differently a bit.

THIS.
I don't see LSU getting more than 120 yds rushing, but like SMT said, giving up big plays in the passing game worry me more.

LSU's dual quarterback threat

JJ's biggest threat is going to be vying for a good spot on the sideline from which to watch the game.

The game never starting and then not ending.
Seriously. At this point, my biggest nightmare would be the last month or so of posting going on ad infinitum.
Fortunately that's not possible, so I'm not worried about it at all.

McCarron and the lack of a go-to WR.

so you're saying he wont play, thanks coach, he can stay in BR since you made that decision.

Maybe he'll get to stand next to Lil Wayne.

You know, I've been reading a lot of stuff like this about Bama's OL:
Running back Trent Richardson and the mammoth Tide offensive line (6-foot-4, 313 pounds on average) will do their best to grind it out, but eventually McCarron will need to come up with big plays on second-and-long and third-and-long to keep drives alive.

But the fact is that LSU's 1st string OL averages 6' 4.6", 315 pounds.
If the Tide's OL is "mammoth", LSU's is just slightly mammoth-er. But you never see that in the previews of this game.
I think a lot of people are overlooking LSU's OL this season.

I completely get this argument.

But not this one. I guess they go hand and hand, but AJ has played very well this year.
