Who here thinks, with all the ball hawks fighting for playing time(Mills, Eugeen, Martin, Collins), will get a pick versus UA?
I'm not counting Reid and Simon that's no fun and I doubt the QB will throw it their way.

IMO- Mills shows up again with another big pick or atleast a tip to a Saftey. They will test his side of the field because of lack of experience which opens opportunities.

Who shows up big from the young Linebacking core on our first away game? This is the first road test under a traditionally big stage someone will thrive under pressure. What's the consensus?

To me, Debo will make big TFLs and maybe a FF. He is nasty and plays with speed similar to Ali Highsmith.

D-Line? Sacks? TFL? FF?
IMO: This O-Line we are going to play while adequately sized I feel will struggle against a punishing Sonic Sam. Sam shows up big with 2 sacks, I FF on the QB from blind side.

I don't think the younger LBs will play unless we're up by a big margin or there is an injury. Or unless Barrow or Muncie stink it up. While the potential is obvious, the freshman LBs all look pretty lean

I see your point about the Linebackers, the thread is a prediction base however.

IMO Debo Jones, while light, will see reps in the game even though he has someone infront of him.

By "Young" it's meant to represent the amount of playing time received last year to now, beside minter there pretty young and other LBs do rotate in.

ETA: grammar

Your right I forgot QB's don't through the ball. Much less watch film or game plan, coaches don't scheme for opposing D's either. Especially after studying the past three games where LSU has put up impressive numbers against the run consistently. I'm sure that QB won't throw to the only DB that is the most unexperienced.

Why would they not attack Simon? He has blown coverage a few times now. And Simon being our best Corner will cover their best WR normally. You don't change your game plan because of one player..

How many times did McElroy target Jones when Peterson was covering him?

U of A is BAMA.
AU is Auburn
This thread is dumb.
