It will be so sad if Les Miles loses five in a row to Alabama. I never did. Sincerely, Curley H. P.S. Jamie's 5 INTs @ Auburn in '94 were part of my game plan.
I think the truth is -- this LSU team can beat this Alabama team. I would love to see us come out swinging - play action pass on the first series with a deep throw over the top. Leave the vanilla stuff at home. On D, I want to see us get Bama in 3rd and long and blitz Coker. Our defense hasn't gotten a lot of turnovers this year. We will need 2 in this game. This is a young LSU team and I don't really think we've been pushed to our limits yet or played a complete game. So we're not 100% sure what we have. Bama has been kind of inconsistent, like us.
The conservative game plan wont work against the gumps. Miles needs to put his foot on Saban's balls and believe in it.
Were those all at Bama? I am only counting his time at Bama since 08'. Miles has 3 wins against him at Bama if you count 07'. He only has 11 total loses since 08' and you have 16
Is Ritter's crew really assigned to this game? Is there some website where you can find out crews are assigned to which games? Are game assignments made before the season or week to week?
Excellent question. Unless you know a credible source with inside info, I doubt you will know the officiating crew until a couple of hours prior to kickoff. Writing that, I'd bet more than a dollar that it will be Bug Eyes.
I wouldn't suspect this info to be readily available. Too many things could go wrong if it were easy to find out this far in advance.
