I know the triple option has given Saban trouble before

It's our kryptonite. One thing Bama doesn't have is speed on defense. I'd run it all day if I were you.

Etling gonna run the triple option for you? Sounds like a great idea to me.

We practiced against it for three years with Kiffin, so probably not.

Is that the answer you wanted to hear?

No. Run that on 1st and 2nd down all game.

The jet sweep isn't that effective against elite defenses. Etling will have to complete a lot of short and midrange passes to keep their defense honest...then it may have some effective results.

Yes. It will be incredibly effective. LSU should practice nothing else.

Bama plays a lot of man coverage, better to throw jump balls and hope your man makes the play. I would suggest the qb know where Minkah is before attempting any pass. If LSU is to beat Bama it will have to be on the arm of Etling, nobody runs effectively on Bama's defense, and nobody out flanks them either.

Well they've got really fast Linebackers and a pretty good safety that likes to come up and hit. And Saban knows a thing or two about defense.

Bama defense will stop that shite dead in its tracks.


I bet the longest gain on a sweep will be 6 yards against them.

Well I mean at least we know we wont try to force it down the throat of an 8 man front with 8 future NFL players...

So whatever we do, improvement?
