I don't think coaching staff comparisons is something anyone will question. Give Saban two weeks and give Orgeron (with his trusty trapper keeper) the same and ... well, you know.

This game is closer on paper than it's been in years. To that there is no doubt. One advantage I see for LSU in this game comes from TE's and RB's going against the ILB's. There are coverage issues there as there are with any team but in this case magnified by lack of experience.

I fully expect LSU to move the ball. I fully expect the Tigers to put points on the board. LSU's offense versus Bama's defense comes down to being able to effect Burrow. As mentioned earlier Alabama has been one of the best in the nation in that area. I see LSU with issues at tackle (especially the right side) and don't see a good match-up for LSU with the ends in dime-rabbit.

If this game comes down to who has the ball last I won't be surprised. The fact is modern defenses have not caught up or been able to defend a good RPO attack. It can be somewhat limited in its success, but rarely if ever completely shut down. In that aspect Bama has better a better receiving corps. We can definitely take the top two and call it a wash. Beyond that the scales lean to UA.

Comparisons from group to group (IE: RB's to RB's) is something I'll delve into this upcoming weekend. Overall, with eight different personnel groupings it'll take a little time to contemplate. Just as one example if we're looking at QB's one has to take into account Tua and how healthy he'll be in two weeks. But, if we look at the overall group, I see the depth factor favoring Bama (Jones vs Brennan.) It likely won't come down to that, but it's certainly a consideration. If it's Jones versus Burrow...then we've got a discussion.

The only point here that doesn’t make sense to me is Saban vs. Orgeron. We all know that Orgeron’s not scheming up the game plans. It’s Aranda v. Sark and Brady/Ensminger v. Saban.

Although, I don’t think Alabama will be doing much scheming on offense. They’re going to run the football with Harris, give a few jet sweeps to WRs, run their slant/RPO game, and add a few deep balls. I don’t see them deviating from that much(I assume Tua is playing).

the game will be the LSU OL vs bama DL. burrow can create time against this DL, although I suspect more holding will be called against LSU than we think reasonable.

Marshall, Chase, Jefferson, Moss win this game

I'll let Terry speak for himself, but my take is there was a touch of sarcasm involved.

I reread it and think there’s some merit in what you’re saying

I think LSU has a chance for the first time in forever because we can actually score. Does that mean we'll win the game?? Even if we had blown the doors off of Auburn, the game is still being played in Tuscaloosa so Bama DOES have the advantage, just as we always think we're gonna win in Tiger Stadium.

But I think this whole centering the season around Bama is a bummer anyway. If they beat us, I won't be happy, but LSU still has a legitimate shot at making the playoff, so we might get another crack at them on a neutral field or in the Superdome. After last season, I've decided that I'm no longer gonna let Alabama dictate my enjoyment of LSU football.

I agree with this, but man, at the same time I want to beat Bama’s ass, esp in a 1 v 2 matchup. . An unbridled Brady is the X factor, not Tua.

I don't think this dies when Joe Burrow leaves.

Agree with the post but picked this out because, for something to die it had to have lived once. It has been a long time since that thing had any life in it. Make no mistake, we can have the greatest QB to ever hold a football and if we don't have the big uglies on the line to handle that business it will continue to be locked away in a trunk somewhere in sabans basement.

these are my first two outdoor plants, the envy of everyone who saw them,.. the small darker one in the background is an indica,.. the plant was just barely starting to cannibalize the shade leaves, this was about two weeks before harvest
..........................................................................

there are big marijuana farms in Oregon, Ramah, the farmers know what they're doing

Jim Belushi has a premium, cherry pie, strain among others that he farms on the other side of the mountain from me

Ramah, I don't think you know shit about modern marijuana farming

Two birds with one stone ...
Senor B kiss my entire arse ...
Duck, it obvious that you don’t know a fuggin thing about Quality Marijuana growing ... Any idiot can grow outdoors in premium climate conditions following the basics ... Kudos to you

1. I didn’t grow the garbage varieties you grow.
2. I only grew indoors and followed strict quality guidelines and practices established and proven since the 1950’s ...
3. I only grow Cannibus Cup winners from seed
4. I would never pretend to be an expert (like you just did) and show a idiot photo of Jim Belushi contaminating his crop with tobacco mosaic and filthy hands ...

Your expert status just went bawhoosh mofo!

You think you can throw a few pics in here talk some trash and impress me ... Go take a flying phuck at a rolling donut ... And good luck with your crop ... Hope you get nice yields outdoors on your Oregon mountain
