The difference here is that Bama's LB's are the best in the country and this won't be as big of a talent disparity.
They are also the best coached in the country and rarely miss assignments.

Eh, besides Ruben Foster their linebacker corps isn't nearly as good as years past.
There's going to be mismatches with how good LSU's running backs are

LF7 will be available on pass routes, but it will be the option route where he attacks off tackle possibly chipping the pass rush, as he approaches the LB he goes opposite the direction the LB is coming to cover. Etling and Fournette will need to be on the same page when he cuts because if they get mixed up it could result in INTs.
I know it's not the offset I or a formation that we've seen from the offense, but See below for LF7 RB option route:

But can they cover and have the speed to keep up with LF7 and Guice? Probably not.

I don't think that's his point. It doesn't really matter how good the linebackers are. Anytime you have Fournette against a linebacker it'll be a very nice advantage.
