The talent has never been the question at LSU when it comes to playing Alabama, it boils down to coaching. Les is too stubborn to beat Saban because he has his mind made up that he is going to run the ball down Alabama's throat and that is never going to happen. LSU or anybody else is not going to run the ball consistently against a Nick Saban defense without mixing in some other offense to open up the run.

LF is the best RB in the country and he had about 32 years against the tide. Les needs sot learn offense.

I agree with this 100%. Les wants to constantly focus on running against Bama. Bama is built to shut down the run and Saban know how. The only teams that give Bama (and Saban) fits is a fast paced passing friendly offense. That's why OM has beaten them 2 times in a row. Sabans weakness is a passing game, especially a fast paced one where he can't constantly swap players in and out to get the best match ups.
