Break down Alabama and LSU and show me where and how much better BAMA is at each position or each group (LB's, DL, QB). WR is obvious because of the experience...

On defense, the only position group where LSU might have an advantage would be at corner. Alabama has talent there, but lacks experience. Alabama wins the group comparisons on the DL, linebackers and safety. On offense, QB is a push because no one knows how well or poorly either team's quarterback will compete. RBs are fairly close, but Bama has more quality depth. WRs to Bama, as you concede. LSU's OL is deeper and more experienced. It shapes up the same as it does every year, a fire fight, and it would not surprise me to see special team play determine the outcome of the game this year. I know we are breaking in a new kicker and punter and know nothing about LSU in this regard.

This is a fair and honest assessment.
