That’s it. Our only weakness

What y’all doing way up there in the 20s?

That’s hard to believe.

LSU doesn't get enough pressure on the QB either. But I have a feeling Aranda will have something special for this game. But that could just be me being hopeful.

Bama hasn’t played Clemson, Florida, or LSU either.

Both Aranda and Ala’s DC are saving up stuff, are going to have to gamble on defense, This is going to be a crazy game, not for the timid.

This will be the first game all year where Pete Golding will 100% work his tail off to earn his paycheck. Brady has been really good for LSU's offense.

That is coach speak, and I don't put much stock in it. The defenses are pretty good but not by Bama and LSU standards, but way better than average. This also the year that Bama and LSU may very well have the two best offenses in the country. I expect a high scoring game not because of bad defenses like in the big 12, but because of exceptional offenses.

Not sure how Coach O kept a straight face, this isn’t the same caliber defense LSU is used to going against the last eight years when the Tigers had no offense. Big change!

Love everything about LSU’s coach, always respectful, a total class act. He’s respectful of Alabama even though Bama fans admit this isn’t the same caliber of Saban defense that LSU has faced in the past. LSU’s defense might be a bit stronger.
Don't lose LSU....it would be soooo embarrassing!

Only thing great about Bama D this year is it sucks.

I wish we could have played Duke, Tennessee and Arkansas to pad our defensive stats. Instead we had to play Texas and a really good Florida team.

Alabama’s freshmen would not be playing years ago, true! Now they can say they played against LSU’s Heisman QB, should help them in future drafts, depending on how well they play.

I like how you people still think Texas is any better than A&M

Soft? What games have you been watching? The Tide has youth and those guys need more seasoning in a tough 1 possession to win type game in order for them to know what that's like at this SEC P5 level. I digress, only a foolish OC would repeatedly test the middle of a young but fast becoming a every year SABAN built Defense!

Bruh, you haven't exactly played "juggernauts"

Rashard Lawrence hasn't been consistent when in, hopefully that is lingering injury and he gets better for this game.
Shelvin and Feheko can blow up the inside of the line to close running lanes but can't shed blocks to get to the QB.
Chisasson can beat anyone but his go to move is his quickness and he overruns his window to get to the QB most of the time.
Seems like we get the best pressure when we blitz with Divinity. We are going to have to keep Tua on the move to have a chance. This part of the game scares me the most when it comes to LSU's D
