In all fairness, Mosley/Lester should have no problem against Gragg, and Milliner handled Hamilton and Childs last year. He should be able to handle Hamilton this year. I'm interested in what Knile does, but the truth is Arky won't be effective enough unless Knile runs a lot AND Tyler throws a lot. Against Bama that just isn't going to happen. We're not going to let your O take enough snaps to win. I do think you score the most on us though. Right now I've got you scoring 17 on us, but I could see you scoring 24.

True that. I do know that this Alabama team has a legit chance at serious history. They will be favored in every game save one at the start of the season. They felt the let down of 2010, and should know how to stay focused. I'm sure the staff will hammer their opportunity at Dynasty status into the team, it should be a fun ride..

The youth won't have as bad of an attitude as it did in 2010 either. Anytime you hear about a younger guy slacking off you hear about the likes of Lester, Nico, or Barrett telling them off.

Pay close attention dude. I will type this as SLOW as possible so you can follow along.

There is a difference between returning starter and STARTING EXPERIENCE RETURNING.

What I said was LSU RETURNS 29 players with STARTING EXPERIENCE. Some of them have two, three, four or more starts over their two or three years on the team. None of them would be considered a returning starter but they still have STARTING EXPERIENCE.

Read an interview with Chief (LSU DC). He stated LB Jones actually played more snaps than the starter at his position. Haven't seen any LSU fan claim him to be a returning starter. He does have starting experience and he is one of those I mentioned as a returning player with starting experience, just not a returning starter.

This is what I'm trying to say. We've got guys who played a shite ton of snaps, but aren't returning starters.

Well when talking about Milliner/Mosley it isn't as much quality depth as it is "Guys are are technically starters."

You proclaimed moseley to be a THREE YEAR STARTER because he played a bunch of snaps. He started three games in '10 and six in '11.

LSU TE, C Clement started eight games in '10 and two last year. He played a ton of snaps in every game these last two years. Not one LSU fan considered him to be a RETURNING STARTER.

Bama drops three games this year. One is to Auburn. Book it.

You've got to be trolling. I'm saying he might as well be a three year starter because he played as many snaps as Nico did. Mosley started 9 games these last two years? Ok, he's not a returning starter, but he's played enough downs that if you just looked at the number of snaps played you'd think he is a three year starter.


Damn you're dense as frick.

Well, if we're being honest here, then the following Alabama LBs are better than LSU's :

Nico
Mosley
DePriest
Hubbard
Dickson


Probably more, but we haven't seen enough of the other ones.

Now they are "technically starters"?

So I can add Tharold Simons name to T Jones as being returning "technically starters".

What about 6th year SR J Dworazyk? He started every game at LG in '10 and '11. Twenty six straight games. Is he a returning starter?

JC Copeland started at FB in the last four that LSU actually started a FB. Is he a returning starter?

What about R Shepard? He started a couple in '09. He was a regular starter in'10 and he started a few last year. Is he a returning starter?

I don't know about Jones, but I already see Simon as a returning "starter" for LSU.

Technically.

He obviously think LSU is some how much more experienced than Alabama, so let him think that. The only way LSU can win is if Mett can throw DEEP, not mid-range, not short check downs, but DEEP against three year starter Lester and three year starter Milliner, oh wait, Milliner played Nickel last season, but did rotate with Menzie here and there at Outside CB, and played as many, hell if not more, snaps as Menzie, I guess we can't count him.

I'm the dense one?

You keep changing you words everytime I question what you said about mosley.

First you stated he was a three year starter. Then it was he played as many snaps as a starter. Then it was he was technically a starter.

What he is is a player with starting experience.
