Yeah, Bama throws alot on first down, 44%. More than LSU does.

They are usually safe throws. But safeties coming up def make it easier on McCarron. Hopefully Claiborne and Mathieu/Simon can stick their men.

But the most important part of coverage will be making sure we can cover their TEs and RBs coming out of the backfield, thats usually where they get big plays in the passing game.

Exactly. They seem to like to go play action to the TE on early downs to set help loosen up the defense.
