Sounds stupid.

Maybe your coaches suck at math.

Vandy has actually been pretty solid against the run this year. They are only giving up about 110 ypg and less than 3 ypc.


Not bad. They held Lattimore and Crowell in check pretty well. I just figured size and depth would be an issue for them against a physical Oline and RB like 'Bama has.

We run to wear down a defense to where we gash them for yards in the 4th to crush their will to fight.


Yeah we do that too, but we do it averaging like 3 more yards per carry. Not bragging, just happened to look at LSU rb's ypc and wasn't very impressed.

It is stupid. However, I don't make 4 million dollars a year to make those decisions, plus we're undefeated and ranked 1 in the country. That being said, it doesn't really matter what TheBob from Tigerdroppings thinks.

You run a different offense. I hate the way we run the ball, but what can you do? I think I hate the toss play for 2< yards more than the short side option.

Bama's 7+ YPC is especially impressive given McElwain's unimaginative playcalling. LSU appears to me bludgeon their opponents, running to move the chains, control the clock, rest their defense and set up their play action passing game. Alabama appears to be much more reliant on their running game to score. LSU has a better balance of passing (11) touchdowns to rushing touchdowns (16) as compared to Bama (9) passing vs (23) rushing. The only way I see Bama winning this game is if they have success running right at LSU, between the tackles. LSU is too fast to run wide on and their LBs are relatively small. If Bama can't overpower them, I think LSU wins. LSU has too many other advantages, better receivers, more experienced QBs, far superior punting and kicking game, not to mention the HONEY BADGER (he takes what he wants). LSU wins unless Bama can make their arse quit. A'ight.

averaging at least 4 ypc is unimpressive

It's actually middle of the pack in FBS this year. Not very impressive.

Running our backs into a brick wall is frustrating. Dive , stretch, dive, stretch.

I am hoping this is part of a master plan.

Well, our OC came down with Parkinson's, and our starter got arrested. I think the offense is starting to open up.

You forgot to consider weaker opponents and running Richardson in the 4th Qt. during blowouts. Those Heisman yards add up.
