By accounts reported the plan is to let Tua play in the pocket. How do you defend this?

    It would. I'll be here. To bad the software can't handle what it could.

    @GregLSU You running what now?

    I think if that works and we cover the deep ball well I see some 3 and outs. Plus I see saban trying to establish his run game early as well. He will however go deep a few times early to try and hit the big one. And get the crowd settled

    @CalcoTiger It's the third read...fourth at times. As good as the defense is, I can't see accounting for those.

    With no pressure ... I can't seen Bama going max on the line.

    Honestly, this scares me more than Tua. With our DBs, we can shut down Bama's receivers, and if we play contain on Tua, can get some coverage sacks. But we haven't played the run well all season, and unlike Kirby, Nick's smart enough to stick with it if he sees its working.

    Kinda need to cheat on the run IMO, which scares me with Tua. I think I still make Tua beat us, which is what Hurts did last year. He threw some effective passes against us. It’s going to be hard to beat an offense full of five stars with a good QB.

    It might not make sense, but I’m more worried about their offense than their defense.
