HUNH is just hurry up no huddle. LSU has ran that quite a bit this year when they've felt they had an advantage.

No kidding. People in this thread think you need to go all Andre Ware when you run a HUNH.

LSU frequently runs a hurry up after picking up a first down on a drive - usually off tackle.

Leonard Fournette is a generational talent, but Alabama has 4 future NFL starters on their D-Line and a potential future pro-bowler at MLB. They are built better than any team in the country to stop the run.


LSU has 5 future NFL OL along with a terrific FB and the Heisman frontrunner at tailback. LSU is one of the best running teams in the nation again this year.

The Tigers have prepared for this game all year. Yes they have the capability of changing things up, but only if needed. So far it hasn't been needed.

We heard about how good the gump D was in 2012. What was it? They could beat Jacksonville on a neutral field and their defense with Upshaw Hightower couldn't be ran on. LSU ran off tackle on 3rd and 6 for a first down and had over 400 yards of offense. Still hard to believe we lost that game and probably the Nat'l Championship that night.

There will be no tricks here for either team. These two programs are built to beat each other. LSU will hurry up and run some quick plays to take advantage of matchup issues and try to keep some tired DL on the field to deal with Fournette. But Bama will do the same thing with Henry.
Its what both teams do, If u want to save 15% on insurance.... call Geico.

Both teams want to play ball control and see who blinks first. Been that way for several years now and probably will be the same next year, if Nick stays. Sooner or later the football gods have to give the Tigers a little love. This Saturday would be a good time to get things back to normal.

That's some strong moral victory there bud.

OM still had 400+ yards of offense. Acting like they didn't move the ball is hilarious.

LSU can run sideline to sideling thus making those big D linemen hurry to seal the edge. They wont have to run a full HUNH to wear them big boys out. I expect 1st quarter to be a lot of runs right at them to get them working then some runs to the edge



A chill just ran down my spine like I've heard this somewhere before.


As to the OP, what you're saying makes perfect sense but Les is a 1970's Michigan guy. For better or worse that's who he is and what he does. He's gonna run the ball and run the ball and when he's done he'll run it some more. Fortunately, he's bringing along a big, foul-tempered o-line with evil intentions.

I think some people believe LSU is going to come out in the two TEs and a FB formation and run right at Bama all game. That isn't going to happen. LSU has shown the ability to run the ball out of multiple formations.

I disagree. I think they are as good as ever in their front 7. Not dominate as a pass rush or in coverage but in stopping the run they are pretty damn dominate.

Oh for the love of God...

Quit whining about that shite. It was a missed call by like half a yard and Core was wide open.

2 best backs Bama faced Hurd and Chubb both went over 100 yards. Neither of those teams have NFL O line like LSU nor the featured #7. If Bama loads the box then the highest QBR in SEC goes to work down field. LSU has 2 NFL wideouts. LSU may be one of the youngest teams in the SEC but it has the talent. Not being able to protect Coker and his ints are big. Bama will have to rely on Henry and if he can't get it done then that O line has been horrid holding up to pass rush.

This is the key to the game IMO, if we don't use this as a game plan then something is wrong. I think we attack their flanks and make bama run side to side also. LSU is going to try the middle but if it isn't working well enough we should attack the edges and make bama run side to side. We haven't used it much but when we have it worked. Use some fakes going one way and pass it to the flat on the other side. Need to make bama think and work.

4 drives inside the 30 and yet ole miss racked up 433 yards of offense

It's ok to admit your favorite team's defense isn't the greatest of all time or that there are plays to be had on them

All in all it was kind of a fluky loss, but you can't write every single variable off as fluky.

There is no explaining a 40 burger when your contention is that they're sooooo great. They are great, just not in a 2011 kind of way

I think we will see a lot more jet sweeps, zone read options and play action/planned roll out passing attack.

Lulz.

No.

We prefer to bleed the clock.

Yes, they are.

Without looking, I'm going to guess we are too.

400 yards and no turnovers

And they keep bringing up short fields. Let's extrapolate those yardage totals for the hypothetical that bama didn't give them shirt fields.

I think everyone needs to stop being so opposed to the OP's suggestion. I know we have practiced the HUNH and I wouldn't be shocked to see Miles pull this out this weekend. He is going to want to spread that D out one way or another to open up lanes for LF AND Harris. We will still ground and pound no doubt...but, would not be shocked at all to see a little HUNH.


Right, we have done this as recent as two years ago against bama. LSU typically brings out a few wrinkles on offense for this game. For example I think it was two or three years ago the offense lined up in an I formation and then checked out to shotgun several times.
