They were also much worse teams that we played in order to get those numbers.
Miles will prepare the team better than Saban, but I think it comes down to the offense producing. If we just put in our special teams and defense we can score points, but I am nervous about our offense being inaffective. At the least, JJ needs to not make any mistakes (or jarrett lee, if he gets put in).

I don't see our offense being "ineffective". You can't have the stable of backs we have, receivers we have, and veteran QB we have to be ineffective. Can't we have some 3 and outs? Sure. But they will eventually get it going. Hopefully from start to finish.

Miami and Georgia Tech were both favored to beat LSU. GT was being hyped as the lock of the bowl season, and we absolutely blew them out of the building.
With a month to prepare, there is no coach I would rather have than Les Miles in all of college football. No one.

Well, they were worse because we put a beatdown on them. Here are the rankings heading into the game:
LSU-Opponent
#10-#9
#4-#11
#2-#1
Unranked-#14
#11-#18

I think JJ struggles with one week to prepare, just too much for his head to handle and takes 1 or 2 quarters to get going. With over a month to prepare I believe he will be spot on like he was in last years Cotton Bowl game. A&M had a very good defense last year with Von Miller roaming around. JJ will have a better than normal game.

I am confident in what LSU should/must do to win. The emphasis has to be on playing mistake-free football. LSU has one to two 'secret' plays they use each year. We have been so dominant this year we have not had to do that. This game is no different. Trust the players. Trust the coaches. But over all TRUST special teams. They will win this for us.
The other thing we need is for Nick Saban to be wound up like a ball. Hopefully we are in his head. His LACK of a kicking game is in his head. Unlike Les, whose preparation will include in very good balance Stud, Krag, Chavis etc---Saban will be all about him. You could see it on his face last time screaming into the headset. He isn't ready for THIS opponent.
For all the misgivings about LSU's offense, Ba starts way slower than us. If at the half this game is within 3 points, we win. Conditioning will take over along with that 4-headed monster we call 'The Running Backs for LSU'.
If injuries become a factor, give LSU another advantage. Check at RB. Check at DB. Check at Dline. Check QB.
Alabama has one focal spot to their offense, and if HE goes down, we r in business. They can't prepare for everything we r capable of unleashing.
In closing, this will be epic and almost certainly both teams will find ways to score more than last time. I got LSU in a close game 23-13
