It is what it is. You guys don't seem to like stats this year. Take 4-1 for instance.

The matchup isn't as one-sided as it looks. People are overestimating Bama's offense in this thread - it's actually a good matchup for LSU here (average QB and O-line). Henry will surely break off one or two of those long arse runs later in the game, but his consistency will be a problem.
Bama won't stop LF; that's a pipe dream. LSU runs their plays through him because he's that good, not because the rest of the O is that bad. You'd be an idiot not to. Also, he has fewer carries per game than people think.
Finally, BH will cause problems. Look, JJ caused problems in 2011. Jordan Jefferson. Harris is much better than JJ in every way. His stats won't be impressive, but he's going to get some crucial first downs and TDs with his feet. There will be a lot of option plays with him and LF. Just look at our first TD against Auburn - teams justifiably freak out when they see both those guys running sideways and have to pick one.
Not saying LSU wins; I'm saying that LSU has as good of a chance as any. It's going to be a fantastic game like always and I can't wait

Syracuse is ranked in the top 15 in rushing defense is not the same as Syracuse is a top 15 rushing defense. Particularly 4 weeks in

all them will be on NFL rosters? you sure about that?
Posted on 10/8/15 at 11:37 am to PapaPogey
Barring a career ending injury, yes.
Guys like Square, Stinson, and Dial were just space eaters at Alabama and they all made a roster

Gotcha. It makes no difference that he was a complete non-factor in the game. That when it mattered Alabama shut down a top 15 rushing attack. Gotcha. That Alabama's 28 point win at UGA isn't very impressive because UGA turned the ball over 4 times but LSU's 10 point win at Syracuse is because Cuse is a top 15 run defense. Gotcha.

Nick Gentry in 2011 and Ivory last year are the last defensive lineman that actually got playing time at Alabama and didn't make an NFL roster, so laugh it up, it only shows your ignorance

That's what people do when they have no valid arguments.

Actually his point is very relevant to this game. Alabama's DL depth is a big factor in the game.
Posted on 10/8/15 at 11:51 am to Swm323
DLineman usually dont touch LF7. If hes brought down its usually a shoestring tackle by a diving safety LOL. LSU talent a WR is no joke. If Brandon Harris finds his rhythm - game over.
Posted on 10/8/15 at 11:54 am to Barracuda
I'm not sure Harris has a rythm. Alabama has faced a comparable (though not as good) rushing attack and fared very well. LSU has not seen anything like Alabama's defense yet.

I guarantee several of these will be on NFL rosters.
I figure that we match up with y'all as well as anyone in the country and better than the majority. Ole Miss thumped your asses 2 years in a row with 0 running game. I think we'll have that ol forward pass figured out enough to hand Bama it's 2nd loss by November.

Which streak is more prudent to this game, Alabama losing 2 to Ole Mississippi or LSU losing 4 to Alabama?
