That's why you haven't seen as much pound them from the Bama offense. They haven't had to. But against an average Tiger defense, they should be able to do what they want. And that's the biggest difference this year. No disrespect for the Tigers defense as they lost so many players.



That's the point I was making too. Alabama doesn't really have a "wear you down" offense. It's an attacking offense, and IMO, it's a better philosophy considering how solid you guys are on defense every year. This Tiger D is not good. It's missing too many pieces. I won't be shocked to see 50 total points scored when LSU/Bama square off.

LSU is #2 in "Long scrimmage plays" (benefits from having played 9 games) 165 plays of 10+ yards, 65 plays of 20+ yards, 25 plays of 30+ yards. Alabama has 145 plays of 10+ yards, 49 plays of 20+ yards, and 17 plays of 30+ yards.

You overlooked the fact that I don't care and unlike yourself do not take this place seriously. Got it?

Right now Alabama has the depth talent and coaching to running the offense anyway they want. Believe me as much as our attacking the Texas A/M did for us in that game our ability to take the air out the ball as well at times during the game helped our D catch its breath/regain its wits.

I see the line closing at 15.5


With a 17 point line if say about 65% are going to be on lsu causing the line to drop.

WTF?

Does Vegas not know this is LSU's Superbowl?


This.

For them it's their superbowl.

For us just another highly competitive match, recently the highest competitive game on our schedule.
