re: Why do people think Alabama is going to beat LSU?

quote:

---

Keys for LSU 1. Stop Cooper (at least contain him) 2. Win turnover battle 3. Rattle Simms 4. Jennings has to have his best game to date Key for Bama 1. Keep LSU rushing attack below 150 yards.

this seems absolutely on the money. on paper at least, this is exactly what must happen.

provided special teams are a wash:
lsu has to limit the tide yardage between the tackles. with kiffin spreading the o a little more than usual, this will be interesting for the tide.

jennings has to make some throws to keep the chains moving. the potential is there but, it hasn't happened consistently. inconsistent probably won't cut it against the tide.

one of the 2 teams will be better in the red zone and that will probably make the difference. turnovers will obviously contribute to this
