I'm wondering how well the Tiger OL will handle the Bama pass rush. We crushed Arkansas OL but I imagine that the LSU line is made up of big boys and blue chip guys.

Just like the rest of the game, probably a wash. It's gonna be close everywhere.

They've been pretty solid so far. I think their pass blocking is better than their run blocking. I believe they've allowed the least sacks of SEC teams all season.

I sure as hell wouldn't use Arky's O-line as a measuring stick.

You are everything that's wrong with the SECR these days. If you imagine the line is big and talented how about you fricking go look it up. shite.

Look at last year's game to get an idea. We'll be fine.

But bama on the other hand has to be concerned about LSU's pass rush. BEASTFENSE is coming!

Don't gauge LSU's O-line with Arkansas'. Those two go together like waffles and cocaine.

LSU's O-line is way better that Arky's.

Lee has only been sacked once in the last 4-5 games I believe (Jefferson has taken like 4 sacks, really dumb ones too). They can certainly pass protect. Run blocking has been tough with the 8 man fronts they've seen basically all year, but they have performed well there too. The most amazing thing to me is how many different starting combinations we've had with the injuries we've had.

Lonergan has missed 2.5 games
Faulk missed 1.5 games
Hebert missed 1.5 games
Blackwell missed half a game
Hurst missed half a game


We've had 11 offensive linemen play this year, 7 with 150 snaps or more

Why don't you just make a thread saying, is LSU any good? It will save you a lot of time.

LSU O'line sucks. Bama is the best at everything, ever so it doesn't even matter.

Bama crushes everything. LSU is contemplating just mailing it in.

I think our OL has overachieved this year. The only special thing about them is that they are versatile at other positions. They're slightly above average SEC size, avg speed & strength. Most have been gimped up and several are in starting roles outside of their recruited positions. If any team can exploit the entire OL as a weakness... it's Bama. We've had several individual athletes that have challenged them from game to game but no one that was as consistently as good as Alabama. That said, neither has Alabama with LSU's talent.

I give the Bama DL an edge over our OLine. This could be the difference in the ball game. All of the playaction in the world won't make a bit of good if you are not running the ball.
