I have good feeling coming into this game. I know Bama has beaten LSU 5 games in a row, the pressure is on. I also know they a damn good team. I do feel LSU will be ready under Oeaux, with the added boost by a night game in Death Valley, LSU will win this game. I think it will be close and Bama will probably control the game more than LSU but big plays will win the game for LSU. I think they do a good job of shutting down Fournette for the most part, but he gets around 100 yards but is aided by a big run. Guice will also have a solid game on limited touches. The OL and DL are obviously key, especially against Bama. Etling though has to really be the man for us to win. He must make some plays in the intermediate and deep zones. We can't just use dink passes against Bama. LSU 27 Bama 24
Alabama 30 LSU 13 Everyone will realize that Coach O ---has beaten: Mizzo ---the worst team in the SEC USM---whom we had trouble with up the middle for a half. OlePiss---A 5 loss team that may be worse than us against the run. Reality set's in, and we see the same "talent" get man handled at the line, and there backs run all over us.
I predict that this is the first time in six years that Nick Saban has had to prepare for an LSU offense.
I believe Alabama and Florida will be the toughest to win. I would have put Arkansas in there, we do not match up against a good OL and RB running team. However, the pigs are not as good as the previous two years. So that game is a toss up. I believe we will beat aTm, we match up well with a passing team. I hope I am dead Wrong!!!!!
HUH? We're nowhere near as bad as Ole Miss against the run. Eighth in the country in rushing defense, aamof.
I think our D is legit but suffered early from no help from the offense. And I think our OL is seriously under appreciated. We're going to stop Bama's offense; Kiffen is going to hit a wall and try to overcompensate. Have I said how little I appreciate Kiffen? Don't like.
You're right we are no where near as bad as ole piss. My frustration with this team has been with, Alabama and Arkansas running all over us, two years in a row. I guess I am just preparing myself to not get caught up in the hype. Feels exactly the same way as last year when we were 7-0.
I feel better, but I was excited last year. We'll find out if Saban is that good or Miles is that bad (I think it's the latter).
