re: Bama Peaked Too Soon

McCarron won't go the whole season without throwing a pick. I think the law of averages finally catches up to him in TS. Our D shuts them down and we come up with just enough O to win.

Whoa, law of averages? Now everyone knows to bring more than just math to a sports argument, but I agree that he is overdue.
Your D shuts Alabama down? Overall your D is worse than last year and Alabama's O is better. Your D gave up 3 touchdowns to South Carolina and despite putting up 406 yards of offense only scored 23 points at home at night (7 on a big play). Let's be realistic. This will be the most balanced and greatest offense you've faced all year. This will be the greatest defense you've faced all year. Your offense will not be the reason you win. You think your coaches will have a new, difficult to defend, never before seen offense ready Saturday? Regardless of what you run, you'd still need your receivers to make key catches and Mettenberger to protect the ball. This game could go either way, but if Alabama shows up and plays their best while LSU cannot get good offensive production, then it'll be a long night for the Bayou Bengals.
