They have some key injuries that will benefit LSU. That tackle, who will be out, was getting abused by UT's defensive ends. The next guy up at tackle probably isn't that fantastic considering how that OL has played. One safety is in a boot for a twisted ankle. The other is limited in practice with a knee brace. Those are bad injuries to have at safety. Through a starting linebacker in there and this will be a huge advantage for LSU.

All that being said I don't think we need to be hoping for injuries. If we are a championship team we will beat them at full strength

We have a beaten up #1 CB, a safety that has barely played this year, and a stud FB that is questionable.

We all have nicks.

Talked to LT at Bama. Combination of a r shoulder injury that needs surgery and a left guard that gets about half of the assignments right is causing major problems. Apparently, those #1 recruiting classes missed something.

I am sure Saban will make adjustments over their bye week just like Les will do over ours.
And I am NOT surprised. Those Tennessee Defensive ends are good, really good. It's likely Tennessee's strongest position on D going up vs a depleted o-line last week.
Huge Advantage? Not so fast. We have our own injuries to worry about.
