The Tide's running game was very impressive against Georgia. Two very talented backs and an overwhelming OL.

What do all of you think about LSU's backs compared to Bama's

How about comparing the OL's

LSU holds its own in the run game.

Three of our starters had to be replaced. They returned everyone and didn't lose anyone. And their smug faced entitlement clown center that looks like he wears his pants IRL at his throat came back to play center. Not the same.

I think they're as good. It took awhile to get the o-line together, Bama has had the bed fit of having the same people on there for years

Not until Stud can learn the secret holding technique that Bama employs.

LSU has better backs and Bama has a better O-line AND offensive gameplan. The way LSU'S O runs is that they would NOT have been able to pull off that play-action for the last TD like Bama did. I think LSU has better talent overall on offense, BUT with Miles having his hands ALL OVER IT they will NEVER reach the heights they could.

It appears that Bama runs more than 5 or 6 offensive plays, unlike we do.

LSU had more yards and yards/game than the last two years. Obviously our O-Line took a step back this year with injuries and poor play, and so we slipped behind them.

No reason why we can't get back on top in the future.

It's really not that secret.

I find it amazing that pretty much every NFL team get called for holding every single week but Alabama can go weeks at a time without 1.

Yeah but our run game and offensive line constantly folds in big games.

Can we stop comparing everything to do with Bama? I believe we have a great rushing attack, and we don't need to try to compare it to any other team

And they replaced him with the Outland Trophy winner because their LT wasn't injured this season. So it's like saying we don't return a starter in Faulk next year because he was injured this year. You can parse it all you want but I still consider them as returning 5 starters.

Put it this way. LSU would NOT have run for 350 yds like Bama did yesterday. Even without any penalties called. Face IT PEOPLE. Bama is a fine-oiled machine. REFS aside. They execute better than anyone else. Those who want to cry for holding penalties are just mad that they do it better than anyone else. I will say this. Bama should be called for more holding than they are, BUT BOTTOM LINE is they are the best at what they do. I FEEL FOR ND.
