For a possible shootout with LSU?

The norm here is LSU being highly ranked and then getting blasted by good defense.

But im not seeing "good" defense on either side.

Think we will see a good old fashioned scoring festival like the good ol days in 2007? (41-35 type game).

Ratings would be through the fricking roof for sure.

Not even thinking about it yet. That is a month away, and many games to be played.

I for sure, am.

Should be a great game. I like having fun with you guys but I'll say it's 50/50 (at best) that we can pull out the win. Our D needs to improve by a LOT for that to happen tho.

LSU and Bama have the same problem; the offenses score too fast. That means both defenses are on the field a lot more and leads to giving up yards. I definitely think the game will be a shoot out but neither defense is as bad as people make them out to be.

Both fan bases contemplating a 48-45 shootout. Lol. Like a parallel universe.

I think we all believe it will be a shootout with both teams going over 40. That makes me think it will be something like 24-20.

Bama/LSU this year will be a game for the ages like 2011 but with the offense driving the bus. In GOTC the narrative was "which offense can do enough to win" This year it will be "which defense can do enough to win." Looking forward to this game.

Always look forward to the LSU game, it's always a "Damn Fine Game". Too early to focus on it right now though due to still having a lot of work to do before we get there.....

could care less about LSU, we have games to play with other conference opponents and LSU is our whipping boy.

Great talent should be on display from both programs. Offensive fireworks from Bama and LSU should be well received even by the "get off my lawn" crowd. IMO, neither defense is as bad as they appear from a superficial glance and with time and the return of injured players both should be improved. Nevertheless, the offenses have legit talent and the confidence of having proven themselves. It could be thrilling even if the final score is not as close as the game will likely be.

Hopefully, no losses or more injuries in the interim. You have UF (overrated) and AU left, Alabama has nothing between now and then. It's possible that Bama will be a bit stunned at first by the level of play because of the unusually soft sched til then. Especially all of the true Fr. playing on D (5 starting, 4 in front 7) who can't even refer to last year. IMO, Bama's O is better than last year even though drop off at RB and TE, though Harris is a great receiver and RBs are good enough to be the secondary focus. O more diverse, more complex, more adaptable, less risk, a year more experience. Tua's improved and healthy.
