re: What about Bama's O v LSU's D?

Defensive and special teams TDs also effectively take away possessions from the offense. I'm guessing the adjusted PPG is probably around 37-38 when you consider this. Plus I think we are 11th in the country in yards per play and 12th in total offense (again, despite losing possessions).

So I guess you can make the numbers say whatever you'd like them to say. But yes, we are good on offense. Lots of skill and a terrific OL. Will we struggle against LSU? Probably. I don't expect us to score 40 points. But I don't think we'll need to.
