Does Jimbo have what it takes to beat a Saban-coached Alabama as LSU head coach?

Might as well get right to the elephant in the room.

Can Jimbo recruit and coach an O-line capable of winning in the trenches against Bama's D-line? Can he coach up whoever the QB is and come up with an offensive game plan that doesn't involve getting shut out embrassingly on the biggest stages?

God I just want LSU to beat Saban once or twice before he hangs up his boots at Alabama.

He runs an offense that Saban builds to defend.

That's one of the reason I'm not crazy about Fisher.

BAMA struggles with a full blown spread with a QB that can make plays with his arms and legs.

If you can't get by BAMA, you'll finish with the same record and trophies as O would.

He did in the past for sure. They've moved to something different in the last couple years though. It's more spread than traditional pro-style now. Not really a HUNH spread but it isn't that funky I formation crap we've been doing here the last 12 years either.

No, because of the same reason Prom stated. Athletic QBs running a spread offense give Bama fits. Not a drop back passing attack out of a pro-style offense.

With Aranda, there is no doubt. It will be important to find a suitable replacement when Aranda leaves to be a head coach but I'm willing to take that chance if Jimbo is the guy.
