Better question, what’s Alabama’s record in Death Valley Jr.?

They played a bunch of Cajuns in week 5 IIRC.

I'd say LSU's offense is almost as good as Arky's, and their defense is on par with Missouri. So, we'd have to combine two opponents to get a good idea of what it will be like playing LSU.

Louisville: 2-6
Arkansas State: 4-4
Ole Miss: 5-3
Texas A&M: 5-3
Louisiana-Lafayette: 4-4
Arkansas: 2-7
Missouri: 4-4
Tennessee: 3-5

Total: 29-36

ETA: I love the Bama fans downvoting a visual representation of the schedule.

That's a hot take. I think you might be the first person on this board to analyze the upcoming game from this angle

You act like this Bama roster is full of FR who have never been in big moments before. The SRs on this roster have played in 6 playoff games and 2 SEC title games each, the JRs have played in 4 playoff games and 1 SEC title game, and the SOs have played in 2 playoff games each.

The roster is full of players who have played in real, championship environments. Don't tell me about playing Miami, Florida, and AU as if you've accomplished something.

Quit asking who has Bama played and start asking if YOUR team has ANYONE on the roster who has played in a game this big before. Is LSU ready for the environment, the pressure, and the talent level they'll be up against on Saturday night?

I would go with playing miami in Dallas, opening weekend high expectations, a few weeks later traveling to Auburn, big game 2:30 kick cbs, and winning that one. A tough 4 quarter game on the road at florida. A little bright spot with #2 at the time currently 5th Georgia, and beating them pretty good. Miss St who is above average, suppose to make a lot of noise this year. Just looks like this team is battled tested pretty well.

So, you are of the belief that Miami, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, and MSU are of a quality that they will have "prepared" LSU for Bama?

This is the same offense that faced a Georgia team last year down 13-0. I don’t honk that’s going to be Bamas issue. Now maybe LSU defense is good enough to keep Bama from scoring but we have a really good offensive line who does a great job protecting a good mobile QB who makes great decisions and has unbelievable accuracy. This Bama defense is definitely not as good as years past but I think they can get enough stops to keep Bama within a possible last minute drive like 2012. I don’t think Bama runs away with this game but I certainly don’t understand the braggadocio of LSU fans who think they will. Transisitibe propertiea are not the best measure of a game. Look at what your DL has accomplished this year and what Bamas OL has looked like this year and Vicki versa that is a better tell of the way this game will play out than what either team has done prior to this game. If Bama had squeaked by these teams prio to this game you might have a point but no game has been in doubt past the 2nd qtr.

Miami and Auburn? Really? A couple of powerhouses there.
Florida? That was a loss to a pretty mediocre team.

Georgia was a good win.

So yeah, LSU beat Georgia, good stuff. Better than what Bama has on their schedule; but let's not act as LSU has gone through muderers row.

Please stop with this stupidity
Look what BAMA has done over the last 10 years.
So what if their schedule has been soft this year. It doesn’t change the fact that they are the most dominate tram in college football and have been for a long time

Most of their players played against some great teams last year including that little playoffs run

Who did they prior to beating LSU by two scores last year?

The argument is stupid and baseless.
