Who knows - the West is loaded. We have problems with the following types of teams
- spread teams that have a super accurate QB who can spread us out and pinpoint throws (A&M could be in this category, we will have to wait and see Hill a few more times) WORST MATCHUP
- teams that can match us at the line of scrimmage and then make plays on the perimeter (Auburn) 2ND WORSE
- teams that can match us talent wise at all skill positions (LSU) TOSS UP TYPE
I think A&M and Auburn create the most problems and the fact that LSU is in Baton Rouge makes it a toss up type game.
I am not saying we won't lose to Ole Miss, but it is really really really hard to beat us with a bunch of little scat backs, a so-so line and a streaky QB. Bo Wallace will have to have a Stephen Garcia 2010 type day to beat us.

I will say the great unknown here is
(a) how well our QBs play and
(b) how good our O-line is
Lost in all the Kiffin/QB talk is the fact that we have 4 elite running backs and an elite WR core. Not to mention that we've put together the best 3 game offensive numbers in the history of the Saban era (yes 2 bad teams but wev played 2 bad teams in a row before) and I think people underestimate how good our offense can be if the QB position is just solid.
