I think that your subject/verb agreement is wrong.

Just count on getting the ball first. If bama wins the toss, they will elect to defer (the smart move). If we win the toss we will elect to receive.

Just the way it is.

The benefit of going D first (other than the possibility of back to back possessions) is that if you can force a three and out, you end up with great field position. This is not likely with this defense. If they make stops it will likely be for field goals. You go O first and try to run away with it early.

We want the ball first in a game like this. Bama defense will tighten up as the game goes on. We need to score early on them and put pressure on their offense.

Typically I’d say defer, since it’s at Bryant Denny let’s score first to take the crowd out.

Take the ball to try and let offense take the crowd out of it.

If we don’t plan to adjust, absolutely.

Defer..LSU needs to score first and stay ahead to have a chance. Bama must play from behind all night and hopefully LSU distance themselves in the fourth and wins going away.

This should be the game we defer but Kelly seems to like to start the game with the ball.
