I don't think it was any secret that LSU's defense was vulnerable to short, underneath stuff. I think quite a few of us predicted Bama's offensive attack accurately.
Not our staff or players. In interviews they said they prepared as if bama would be running the ball more. Not throwing on first and second down. Just another example of sometimes it's not a bad idea to fix something that isn't broken. Just because it worked once, don't expect it a second time.

Bama returns 6 defensive "starters" (Milliner and Mosley played more than most team's starters, and did start sometimes) and 7 offensive starters. LSU returns (I didn't check, I'm trying to go off memory) 8 defensive starters and 8 offensive I think.

I"m sure next week it will be 9 defensive starters and 10 offensive starters

It really will not matter how many starters we have coming back if Les does another coaching choke job like he did on 1-9-12.

it will be a tough game for us (alabama) but i think whoever has better QB play will win .

BAMA by 17. I don't think any defense in the SEC will be able tomstop our offense next year and our D will be almost as good as last year.

Good post Scoop. This post is proof that you can't have humility without some honesty.

One thig is for certain, LSU fans are scared that they will lose to Alabama again.

Game is a tossup

I'm hearing it's 15 defensive starters and 109 offensive starters.

I think if Mett shows flashes early in the year, you will see a defensive gameplan not unlike that used against Wilson/Hogs
that would be foolish, arkansas doesn't run the ball well. LSU has 5 very good backs to compliment the pass. if mettenberger is as good as advertised, LSU will have a very balanced offense, unlike arkansas.

Isn't this game going to be a night game on ESPN?

Bama is the new USC with this one-Pete stuff

So can Bama pull of the win?
Yes. I don't think anyone would be surprised, maybe aside from the rantards.

Back to subject before the piss fight:
I think this will be another fun game like it was before the 2011 season.
Really, it's all going to depend on the identities of both teams that are shown long before this game.
Looking at LSU OL looks like a few seniors will be gone which could be an advantage for a Bama D-line that has had some significant PT. But by then the LSU O-line should have enough time to "jell." We all know about Bama's O-line so I won't touch on that.
Bama's problem will be the new addition to the coaching staff with Nussmeier, who has experience of course but Sark at Washington knows a few things about offense, so it'll be interesting to see how much Nussmeier really brings. He has some shoes to fill and it won't be easy. Luckily Grohl has been around a year now and with the WR's that showed up this year with a first year starting QB, I'd said they did a lot better than expected. Yeah, no Julio type guy but everyone here know Julio was ready for the pros right out of high school and it showed. (Sorry, never thought too much of Cignetti when he was here.) I think the offense will be just fine for Bama. LSU looks like they might do the same thing Bama did this past season and really rely on the run and just let Mett manage the game until proven other wise. But seeing as we're talking about a game in November he might very well do so. I'm looking forward to seeing him.
Both defenses are returning the same type of guys. Don't know too much about the LSU guys under the players that are leaving so I won't make a hasty judgement on them. I know Bama is losing some leaders but a lot of those guys that are returning have had some PT and a few have been in the system for a few seasons now. So those that are hoping for the 2010 Bama D, sorry but don't get you're hopes up.
I think most of us know it's a toss up and looks like some are really confident that their team will win, but this fan ain't stupid. Nothing is a sure thing.
