Allow me to answer your question with a couple of questions:
If your starting QB gets knocked out of this game, do you have a proven backup with real game experience that you have 100% confidence in?
How about the same question- only this time in regards to your starting running back?
I can tell you that LSU can say yes to both questions- two players deep.

I'll concede that LSU has more depth at QB. But RB? No way. Bama is three deep at RB. Richardson, Lacy, and Fowler are all better than LSU's top three.

Depth wise.
QB- LSU not a competition
RB- Wash. Lacey/TR=Ware/Ford/Blue/Hilliard
WR- LSU. Randle/Odell/Shep>Maze/?
TE- LSU. Clement and Peterson are both starting caliber, Bama's TE is very good, LSU just has 2 very good ones.
OL- Bama. Bama has some absolute studs here.
DL- LSU, not close by any means.
LB- Bama, not close by any means.
DB- LSU, talent wise I believe they're a wash we just have more.
K- Wash, neither kicker is truly proven anything that great.
P- LSU, Wing is on pace to be an All-American.
Returner- Wash, Maze is dangerous but so is Claiborne.

Disagree. Darius Hanks, Kenny Bell & Deandrew White are all very talented receivers. If anything, WR is a wash also.

Again, this one is a wash also. Bama also has two starting caliber TE's in Williams and Smelley.
DB should go to Bama as well. After all, LSU is currently ranked 10th in pass defense while Bama is ranked 2nd. We also have plenty of depth here.....Barron, Lester, Kirkpatrick, Menzie, Millner, Perry & Lowrey. All have seen considerable playing time this year.
And While I personally believe LSU's D line is better, I wouldn't say theyre WAY better, or even deeper. You don't obtain a #1 ranking in rush defense without a great D line.
