You'll have to narrow it down. Worst show on television.

They are full of shite.

Bama didn't stack the box, but they did crash a safety down into the box after the snap on almost every play.

Honestly, why do you guys think the Bama safeties made so many plays at the LOS?

What's sad is that wasn't the case until this year. Reese, Mark, and Lou were a good trio who had solid chemistry with each other.

They aren't full of it actually, that is Bama's base defense. The safety has fill support on running plays.

They generally play a lot of zone w/ man on the corners.

Defensive line made most of the inside plays against LF31. Secondary might have been in on 3 or four tackles. Even when Bama went to nickel LSU was dominated up front.

Best performance by a DL I've ever seen.

You mean once the QB handed the ball to the RB, the safety ran toward him? What is this sorcery defense that Saban employs?

Ditto. If ESPN keeps Galloway and Kannell in such a prominent role, I may just watch the games and nothing else.

Story of the night right there. Fournette gets the ball with everyone in the backfield. No OL push at all. Just a beast of a D line ending any threat quickly.

I admit that I chuckled at this.

And then I cried.

You must be referring to Joey Galloway.

Phil Savage has said on several occasions that JG has a strong bias against Alabama.

He should know, they a do a show together.
