Losing DW for the 1st half sucks, but the key to this game will be LSU secondary vs bama Wrs. LSU can not allow the WRs to run wide open and take the top off the defense like bama has against every team this year.
I'm not sure of the stats, but I'd guess Bama avg 5/6 40+ yard passing plays a game, LSU can't allow that many big plays(i'm sure George has the stat for this). Tua is great and freakishly accurate!! Of the 4 or so games I've watched, I've been surprised with how many plays bama has had with WRs completely wide open...i'm talking no one with in 10 yards.
Bama will move the ball, just cant give up numerous big plays in the passing game. I know, easier said than done. If LSU can cut those big plays down, it will make for another great game in death valley.

Which begs the question why some LSU fans are so confident in their secondary. Georgia had some plays like that agains LSU and Fromm didn’t make them. Tua usually makes them. There have been some coverage lapses for LSU this season that’ve gone unpunished. There are great players back there like always, but Tua will punish mistakes. Zero mental errors is going to be the requirement to make it difficult for him. This being college football, that’s a tall task

The difference is a QB who can either read the coverage and know where to go with the ball pre-snap or see a guy and in a split second know he will be open and throws it.
