Thoughts? LSU 24 Alabama 20 LSU driving in the waning moments of the game down 20-17, but LSU does what it has done best all year long, score a touchdown in the redzone. On a 3rd and goal jet sweep with Russell Shepard from the 5 yard line.
Defense better practice some fundamental tackling and block-shredding these next two weeks. LSU wins by double digits.
I liked our play-calling today. Obviously we won't be able to do what we want vs Bama but I think Les has a couple wrinkles saved up for Bama. As for the game: 27-20 LSU We are up 20-13 and we drive down the field for the clinching TD (Spencer Ware trucks it in) before Bama puts up a desperation TD in the final minute.
Make sure the game doesn't come down to them by playing our game and putting away all doubt who the better team is.
31-21 us I don't think Bama's offense is as good as some we have faced this year. The only team that can beat LSU this year is LSU though. I believe our Special teams are better and our QB's are better than theirs, more experienced. I couldn't disagree more with Robert Smith or whatever his name is on ESPN 2. I think our Defenses are even, I like our special teams and defense, we have played the better schedule and have played better offenses. The big question is if we will be able to run the ball, I think we can slow down their running game enough. I think special teams and defense score some of these points, that is why I have us with so many points.
I agree. It was sloppy out there at times. Not that it mattered. It will matter on Nov 5th for the first time all year.
