LSU's the better offense...Bama the better defense.
LSU's QB is 100% healthy...Bama's QB is not.
Bama's RBs are better.
Bama's WR's are better.
Talent's important and even more important is how they're coached. Edge: Saban
Here's a very important factor that's often overlooked, but equally oftentimes can decide the game: psychological/mental aspect.
LSU's ranked #1, Bama's #2. Edge: Bama (mental-wise playing the "underdog").
Bama's favored by -7 points right now. Edge: LSU (mental-wise playing the underdog).
Game is at Bama. Atmosphere, noise, the Tide's Playpen. Edge: Bama
If Bama were wise (they are!), they'd treat this game as them being a huge underdog and I think they are. This is dangerous and could be lethal for LSU.
Bama's been taking the heat for playing a "weak schedule", etc., getting demoted from #1 to #2, and now with Tua injured and not being sure he'll be @100% for the game, well, there's just one thing I wouldn't ever, EVER want to face on the football field or in the wild and that's an ANGRY BULL ELEPHANT THAT'S FEELING IT'S CORNERED AND ITS BACK IS AGAINST THE WALL.
LSU....I'm afraid your day of reckoning is coming upon you. I won't predict a score, but I've an awful feeling about the Tigers in this game, either it be close or not.
If LSU wins, they deserve ALL the accolades that have been showered upon them. Stick you chest out, Tigers. But, if you lose, start saying your prayers.
Me thinks the Tigers will be bowing. Tide wins.

Bama wins by 10+

LSU’s d is better than bama’s. Everything else I would agree on.

I don't think either of these takes are crazy, but they are false. Our WRs are as good as Bama's, which is not a slight on Bama. There will be half a dozen future NFL players catching passes Saturday. And Clyde Edwards-Helaire is the singular best back on either team, although Bama probably has better depth.
The most important factor to me is that Bama's defense has struggled vs the run this year. Burrow's going to force them to stop a very good running back without being able to stack the box for the first time since we stopped using sundials.
I think LSU wins it by one clutch defensive stop.

Interesting, if unoriginal take on the game. LSU will not be intimidated by all the supposed edges you have given Bama. The last game the tigers talked about revenge was Florida and look how that turned out. Florida's defense was on par with Bama and Bama's is not as good as Auburn. People thinking Saban is going to pull some mythical scheme out to shutdown this offense, may be giving him to much credit.
Both teams are great, both teams have minor flaws, both teams can exploit the other's flaws. This game will come down to a hand full of key plays that could go either way.

Ehhh I doubt it. Wash imo. CEH has been leading the SEC In Rushing TD's in a very balanced attack with a Heisman leading QB. Says alot.

LSU's are pretty damn good. I'll give Bama the edge if for nothing more than Jeudy being the best of both groups.

They are favored, still in nearly all Playoff predictions, already having predictions of LSU losing 9 in a row, LSU's opponent's exposure, and the gameday and SEC crews will make sure to pick the illustrious Tide to topple the almighty LSU and Joe Burrow.

Obvious troll.
If you aren't picking LSU by 10 to 20 then this automatically means you are trolling. This is how it works around here.

Meh. A Georgia fan with a bad feeling about a big game...
Shocking.

CEH being overlooked is old news because our fans have been trying their best to marginalize him all year. It’s because he doesn’t have a scary build or insane breakaway speed (like some of the kids behind him on the depth chart).
He makes up for physical limitations with excellent vision & agility. He’s currently one of the best backs in the SEC — and most importantly, he fits perfectly in the offensive scheme that LSU runs.
He was a key component in both of LSU’s best wins on the season. Bama isn’t great against the run — he could have a big day, esp if they sellout to the pass like everyone else has this year.
This doesn’t say much in the way of comparing him to Najee, but I’d be paying more attention to the two teams’ respective run defense since the two RBs probably aren’t going to be trying to tackle each other.
Shelvin is a blockade.

Bama's WR's are better. Stats say otherwise

LSU has two lock down corners but not 3. Bama has 3 world class receivers. If LSU can’t stop all 3 it will be a long game for LSU’s secondary.
If LSU plays like they did against Texas and comes out in pure tempo warp speed, bama’s defense won’t stop them. If they play the merkat offense and slow the game down to protect their defense, they will lose.

First time in a while I predict LSU wins this game and, if Tua plays and plays like normal, LSU wins in a shootout. We're just better than they are: our front 7's better and healthy, our back 4 is better talent-wise just they've struggled with all their inexperience, two of the most productive SEC receivers comprise our offense and our offense possesses the better QB, not to mention Clyde Edwards-Helaire's sneaky good, don't sleep on him.

Damn sounds like we don’t have a single metric better than LSU? Wow guess everyone making stats is wrong.

I'll probably give y'all back 4 due the stats (despite y'all haven't played a good passing attack all season) but UF possesses (and possessed at the time) a good pass defense and we shredded them, also shredded a good total D in Auburn as well so I don't rate y'all's advantage there a consequential one.
