I don't know what to expect from LSU against Alabama

LSU has not beaten a team with a quality defense. Alabama will compete like a talented, well-coached team, on every play most likely.
But any given Saturday anyone can be beaten.
LSU has been setting up the run with the pass, a complete 180 from what they were doing under Miles and Cameron, so a lot of this is going to fall on the offensive line's ability to protect Etling, on Etling's ability to maintain composure, and on good scheming by the coaches. They're going to have to mix things up, with nothing predictable. Problem is that Bama probably won't be predictable on defense, either.
Even under Orgeron and Aranda, the LSU defense has a tendency to start slow. This cannot happen if LSU plans on winning against Alabama. I will say this, and you might note it during the game: LSU's defensive line is underrated, and will play well as a unit. Our defensive backs are good when they are playing disciplined football. Ask Ole Miss about that.
I have respect for the Alabama program (mixed with pure hatred), though I get carried away at times on this board (did I mention I hate the football program?). I hope we win the game, but hell yeah I worry about Saturday. Any fan who cares about their program should be.
Here's to a great game. Geaux Tigers! frick Bama.

I'm sure it will be a great, competitive game. Looking forward to it.

Scared is not the right word. Besides, my emotional investment in the game has nothing to do with the outcome. My life continues whether we win or lose. This venue uses the term too frequently, and I don't really blame you, dickhead, since LSU fans are the ones who abuse it the most.

Uh, okay. Not sure about that one.
I suppose you're saying, through pictures, "prepare thy anus". Or as Cajunbama recently wrote, "prepare they anus."
That was quick too. How long have you been waiting to use that, junior?
