How good is Bama's secondary? I know their D Line and Linebackers are legit, they will give our running game hell. How about the secondary though. Has anyone really tested them at this point? LSU is getting much better QB play than the last few seasons and our receivers are stepping up.
I'm just wondering how much we will be throwing the ball because it's not going to be easy to score on them.

Brantley exploited them early in that game, but they adjusted. They are good.

Not really

2 or 3 TDs

Trivia: How many picks do they have in 2011?

best place to attack a secondary, no matter how good or bad, is deep down the field. it's caught for a big gain, incomplete or pass interference. even an int 35-40 yards down field is like a punt.

They have stars in the secondary. Arkansas couldn't even throw for a ton of yardage on them, so we probably won't light up the scoreboard either.

The Bama game will be won by stopping Richardson and having a far superior special teams unit.

The bama DBs are better than the Dline.

They are on par with ours.

Very good. Brantley didn't really exploit them as much as it was a blown assignment by the safety.

Bama's DBs are better at zone coverage than man-to-man. Run on them to open up passing. Similar formula to last year.
