Bama will probably have good starting field position every time they get ball. Special Teams are anything but special and they haven't gotten any better. They don't stay in their lanes, they stop halfway down the field and wait for the returner to come to them and they whiff on the tackle...it is disconcerting and it is going to cost us a game at some point.

Penalties at the absolute worst time possible - momentum killers. Can be to undisciplined and unfocused at times. Big worry.

Shutting down our run game will hurt us bad and will probably cause us to lose the game. We are, as we have always been, a power run team. Harris has progressed way beyond what I expected - he has been very good, especially with his decision making. But, he has only had one real challenge - Gators - but he did well against them, so...don't know.

At Bryant-Denny is also going to affect the LSU. Home field advantage is big with both of these teams. Our guys feast on the fan energy and when that's not there in great numbers - it takes the intensity down a notch or two.

Going to be a great game - one of my great friends is a Bama fan, but not the annoying kind - LOL. He and I can have reasonable conversations and we are both very anxious about this game - both teams have certain areas that is going to hurt them. He does not like Coker and has complained about him in every game and nearly committed suicide in the Ole Miss fluke game.

Actually...... Home field is not an advantage in this series. It's the exact opposite. Bama wins in Baton Rouge more often than not and LSU wins in Tuscaloosa more often than not. Since 1980, LSU is 12-5 in Tuscaloosa and Birmingham.

This year's Bama team has played better on the road than at home.
