Bama can be thrown on. Ensminger may be the most pivotal person in this entire game.
bama has played some pretty terrible offensive lines. in the SEC, Tennessee and Arkansas are 2nd and 3rd to last in sacks allowed.

texas am starts two true freshman and a sophomore in the center of their line. the freshman guard and freshman center were both 3 stars outside the top 1000.

our line SHOULD be the best theyve faced. keep in mind that only 2 starters from last years bama defense are back. 6 of the front 7 are gone.

so forget last year. Fournette and Guice should have lanes, and Etling should have time.

ole miss threw for 421. Ark threw for 400.

its entirely possible we've already faced the best defense we'll see all year in Wisconsin.

Ole Miss and Arky both threw for 400+ therefore that is their weakness, which now we have an OC and HC who will make a proper game plan to exploit that. Throw to the TE, WR and RB should open lanes for the RB. A few quick slants early and a couple of deep balls will keep the safeties back as well the LB on their heals having to now look for the TE releasing off the line or the RB out in the flats or wheel routes. All of those types of offensive scheme will make for better chances at making some good runs.

With all that said the OL needs to come to play, block for Etling and give him enough time. If that happens he will pass for 230 yards and the RB will get the other 200 and if LF or Guice breaks a long one then Bama will be beaten. 400+ yards we win.

LSU defense will hold Bama to 24 points or less. If we play lights out and can get 1-2 turnovers we hold them to 17-20 points. I predict 31-20 LSU
