    I realize I didn't really answer your question. I will say this. He has had 2 weeks to get ready for this one. We all know that Jennings has a limited skill set. I don't think the ole miss game plan will work.

    Should it not, and he either has nothing else to go to or refuses to go to it...then it will be disappointing

    I don't like Alleva. I truly dislike the way he handled the Duke lacrosse scandal.

    If Les wanted to really pull a surprise on Saban he would start Harris and let him run the read option

    That is the wrong move IMO. See Auburn. I just hope Leslie has a trick up his sleeve.

    Don't tell Harris until game time and he won't be nervous. Get Jennings to fake an injury on the first play:)

    Against Auburn He didn't run read option w Harris though, he put him in there and expected him to be able to throw.

    I'd start Jennings and play your normal pro style offense and bring in Harris every now and then to run read option. Then who knows maybe late in the game Harris could throw one out of the tread option.

    We don't need no stinking tricks! We just line up and kick em in the nuts! It would be more satisfying if we just physically beat them! It would be nice to send Saban home with the vein in his head about to explode.

    I hope you're right but I think we'll need a trick or two

    That would be nice, but you are severely handicapped when your offense is unbelievably one dimensional. Bama is not a team you want to play with one hand tied behind your back. It worked against ole siss, but that was damn close. Ten points might not be good enough against Buma. I'd love nothing better than to line up, run every down and average 10yds a carry. However I'd like even more to have at least some ability to pass should the run every down option not work. JMHO
