I think Bama can stop the LSU running game.

Doesn't matter what you think, doesn't matter what you do. Just remember you make have no influence on the outcome of any game ever.

you start 17 seniors and juniors. theres nothing to suggest youre any different now than you were in week one.

LSU starts 4 freshman, 9 sophomores, 6 juniors, and 3 seniors, they get better every week, enough so that they just beat a team you couldn't.

Probably one of the stupidest post I've read on here.

You literally saying only freshmen and sophomores grow and get better every week.

That's another level of stupid right there.

Then read your own. If you can't see a difference in LSU's performance between the first four games and the last four then you haven't watched or you're an idiot. I'm betting on the latter(and that's not something you climb btw).
Bama has improved as well, but not nearly as much as LSU and we've played much tougher opponents, gump.

We are built to stop power running games like that. The rights won't bust 150. Better be able to pass.

Not that I don't think Bama will but how did that work against Auburn last year?

quote:

181 yards to Tennessee. 181 yards. You know how many combined yards Tennessee had against Ole Miss and Florida? 9. You know how many combined yards LSU had against Ole Miss and Florida? 459. Buga gonna get 200 at least.

This sounds like LSU fans after 2011 GA Southern.

Remember all of the yards they got against that Alabama defense? I remember LSU fans crowing to high heaven about that game and how if we couldn't stop the GA Southern option, how were we going to stop LSU? I think we did okay at stopping LSU after that game. What was the score again?

Fast forward three years...

LSU fans: "Lulz you couldn't stop UT's running game"
Bama fans: "That game was the exception, not the rule."

Too bad that you don't have your NFL QB and two NFL WRs anymore. How many titles did you win with that prolific offense?

Jennings is currently #109 in completion percentage.

WTF? He didn't say only freshmen & sophomores. Learn to read before you call others stupid, genius.

Can't discuss anything from this season either according to your fellow LSU fans since this team is so different now than they were a few weeks ago. Amazing how beating OM has turned LSU into the 85 bears.

Back to some football talk:

Some comparisons of another team we've faced:
-Arky has two running backs ranked in the top 30 for total rushing yards. LSU has just one RB in the top 50: LF at #40.

-Arkansas currently ranked #15 in rushing offense. LSU @ #24.

-Neither team is very good at passing the ball. Arky @ #91 LSU @#99.

I don't think the comparisons to Arky are that far off in terms of style of offense, and I think the game plan for Bama's defense will be the same. We'll try to shut down the run and make Jennings beat us with his arm. Brandon Allen couldn't do enough to win the game. Can Anthony Jennings do enough to secure the victory? He will have to be the X factor.

I don't think we stop LSU's running game as well as we did Arky. I think you get around 150-170 rushing yards with a good number of those coming off of qb runs.

Of course, of the 8 Arky has played, I see only 3 with a pulse on defense, and I'm not really sure Georgia counts either. So, say what you want, but Wisconsin, MSU, and Ole Miss are a little more heavy loaded than one Alabama team, I'm sorry to say.

(Auburn is offset which is why I didn't include)
