    its bama week and time to discuss

    where does LSU have an advantage in personnel? How does Aranda fill the void?

    How does jb9 withstand that rush? can we win the LOS?

    What y’all think?

    Apparently Bama has a youngish D (lost a ton to draft) who hasn’t been in a scrappy game yet. Teams are passing because Bama’s offense score 100 in first quarter. I think our offensive balance is sufficient to provide Bama’s D a challenge.

    Burrow has been through wars THIS YEAR and won’t be rattled; a lot of teams Bama has played probably can’t say that.

    Tua hasn’t faced a DB group like ours. If our DBs can contain Bama’s passing game without a ton of support, in order to help out our run D, we might be cooking with fire.

    We might have STs edge too. As much as Shane will hate it, FGs might be the difference.

    This isn’t Miles’ FG kicking team either. Offense has life.

    Gameday will be in BR for the game. Get to watch them fawn over Bama in person if you want.

    The Referees start practicing and training Monday. They'll watch every LSU game looking for the tendencies of every player for penalty opportunities. Then they'll watch short films of people dressed in purple and gold committing violent crimes. After, Saban will host dinners serving filets, lobster, and Chateau Lafite.

    Look for Bama to exploit our backup MLB for a half.

    If I'm Bama I come out and run the ball forty times in the first half.

    The interior of the O line for Bama is weakest point, but it's not really weak. That's why we had White hit with the targeting call. Gonna use all 3 rb pounding for first half.
