re: When LSU beats Bama, and Miles is 4-3 versus Saban...

You can't blame a guy for being hopeful can you?!

Seriously speaking. With the night game Tiger Stadium atmosphere, and 2 weeks to prepare while Bama faces a hard-nosed Miss State team, I'd still say Bama is a 60-40 favorite for the game....BUT, that 40% chance is every bit real and possible.

What will the Saban worshipers of the world do when they realize that the Hat has beaten Lil Nicky 4 out of 7 times, and 3 of the last 4 meetups ! (damn that 1/9 game, or it would be 4 straight!)...

I really feel like we will win. Even when LSU has had its worst teams under Les, the games were close. 1/9 was an anomaly. We are so close on offense. Two consecutive 200+ yards rushing in the last two games. Even with 9 in the box. A&M had 9 guys within 5 yards from the LOS. Saban won't have their guys that close to the LOS, he will send an extra DB on a blitz. Our hope has to be that we will hit the gap where ever that DB vacates. Our biggest issue last year against Bama is that we didn't run the ball outside unless it was with an option.


2008 - LSU rushed for over 200 yards with a poor passing game.
