There’s just too many variables that could affect each individual player differently. Does Bama’s loss and close games fire them up or make them feel vulnerable? Is LSU’s recent evolution cemented in enough to overcome the rough start? So who knows? Likely very competitive but some basis that could be some breakdowns or mistakes leading to a blow out.

If you get the same crew who’s white hat fist pumped when UcheaT scored a TD you’ll have a shot too. You guys have a 10% chance because of tigah stadium at night.

When we started the season, we expected to get blown out. Now we think we can hang in there.

BK will play aggressively to win. He will gamble big time. A few lucky breaks, and it’s our game. Bad breaks and we lose by 30.

LSU certainly can win. Remember Alabama only beat LSU last year 20-14. Bama had 300 total yards of offense and 6 total rush yards. And that was against a much worse LSU team.


Talent wise, we should skull drag you but Bill Fisher and Jimbo Golding can squander talent with the best of them.

The crew that did Bama/TENN in Knoxville was the same crew that did the LSU/Ole Miss game this past weekend in BR. I don't think an SEC crew can do the same team 2 times in a row and Bama is the next game for LSU.

Personally I hope we get Carter's crew who did the shoe game in the Swamp vs. Florida back in 2020. Tends to let teams play and calls PI or defensive Holding or OL Holding when it significantly impacts a play.

Just hope Bama has at least 1 more point at the final whistle and no significant injuries for either team.

That crew tried very hard to be just as awful as they were the previous week so nothing seemed off.

So you’re saying our special teams are equally inadequate? That should make for an interesting Saturday.

I wouldn’t say they are equally inadequate, I have not watched all of LSU’s games but our Special Teams is not what I would call good, especially on the road.

Dynamic punt returner in Kool-Aid and a (usually) solid kicker who performed well on the road against Texas. Would take 'Bama's ST's over LSU's for sure.

Yes, some questionable stuff. One example, they reviewed Jayden Daniels TD for like 3-5 minutes and they did not even review Dart's 4th down roll out when it was very, very, likely that he did not make the 1st down. I thought LSU had that stop.

Depends totally on which LSU team shows up! If we hang close in the first half it will be a good one! If we don’t show up the first half gonna get ugly

He was 100% short. Same crew that took 10 minutes (literally) to decide if 4 downs had actually been played when UT went for it on 4th and didn't convert. I was convinced they were going to give them a 5th down. Also had a commercial break's worth of time to review a clear targeting on Bryce that they never even threw a flag for. Really can't believe they're employed by anyone, not just the SEC.

Kool-aid has been a good returner but we’ve had some brain farts on returns (you can blame that on whomever you want), and Will.has normally been good but he wasn't very good against UTk (I would still take him over every kicker we've had since Tiffin).

We were offsides on a kickoff. The opening fcking kickoff. And we missed a FG. And it was our cleanest special teams game by far.
