I actually believe this is the key to the game. Both coaches are extremely good at in game adjustments. Which one is better?

I'm gonna go with Aranda, Bamas D makes their offense look better than it actually is.

Absolutely,

Aranda didn't fare so well the first time he faced Bama. Lets hope he learned a lot from that first visit.

I think the key is can we prevent them from running right at us. Our DL has proven susceptible to that.

If we can prevent that, their QB is not an exceptional passer. I think Aranda can confuse him.

It's all about the front four.

I'd imagine Bama fans would question many of Kiffin's adjustments. He is good at fixing things that aren't working, but he's also pretty good at breaking things that are working just fine. Hopefully Aranda will take advantage of those mistakes.

Is this a joke? Aranda has been highly praised and successful at every stop he's made, Kiffin hasn't even come close to that. Not to mention the fact that Aranda is probably the most cerebral coach on either side of the ball in the country. If we lose it certainly won't be due to Kiffin outsmarting Aranda, I can say that for a 100% fact

Kiffin is much better than you think he is.

Kiffin is a mega douche with an extremely punchable face who was out of his depth as a HC at SC, but he is a top-notch offensive coordinator.

Our O line vs Bama d line is the key. That and D. Etling playing his best game. He can't turn it over. He made a few mistakes against Ole miss he can't make against bama.

As a head coach, I'd agree. As a coordinator though he's very, very good.

Agreed. This is the game we needed Valentine for and the sumbich isn't even playing anymore.

Stopping interior runs is the key for LSU.

If we can shut down the run game in a decent way and make Hurts throw we will win.

Stopping their offense is not the problem....Giving them points off of turnovers and special teams will be key.....

We will see how the Oline does. I see this as a game in which Ensminger may use the short/medium passing game to set up the run. Someone on the board mentioned LF7 v 'Bama linebackers on passes. I bet we see some of that.
