How can Bama do both? How does Alabama protect their secondary from the Fournette bashing, if LSU spreads them out too thin or from deep passes if secondary over commits? Don't see how. Will be one of the story lines of the game, along with can LSU not have turnovers that turn into TD's.

This is the one game that can be the defining moment for Fournette before he exits for the draft. And believe it, he knows it.

We hit Fournette in the back field and wrap him up (just like last year) and we chase and sack your Purdue backup QB who can't throw the long ball anyway.

That'll be swell of him to finally show up one time before he leaves.

Etling doesn't scare me as much as Harris did. While Harris can't throw the ball accurately to save his life, he does have a set of wheels on him. Etling is a pure pocket passer and our defense thrives on that variety of QB.

Marlon Humphrey was 185lbs last year and tackled LF 1.6 solo, straight up. They all tackle extremely well.

Our poor secondary. I could tell last year that they were afraid to tackle Leonard



Leonard is the nail, and Alabama the hammer

Matias-Smith really laid a lick on him and Leonard had a good 60 pounds on him.

You my friend haven't been watching many LSU games lately have you? Etling and the LSU receivers are lighting up the score board in the post Les Miles era. Look for more of the same on Nov. 5th. Fournette will be a decoy this year. Get ready for it now. You know it's coming.......
