When our boys are heading into the tunnel after the first half against Bama what’ll be your break even score between “alright boys we held our own” and “this is going to be tough to come back from”.

For me if we’re within 10 I’ll still have that feeling that we can come back and our team held their own. Obviously I’m hoping we go into half in much better shape-Just a bye week topic.

Leading to down by 3: We got this
Down 4-7: Held our own
Down 8-13: they might be toying with us
Down 14+: We're boned.

Nicely put.

One thing we know about Aranda is he likes to see how offenses attack him, then he adjusts.

So I won’t panick if they score Some points early as long as we force punts late.

Why do you automatically assume that we will be down at halftime?

One score either way.

We've been in that situation this season. They have not. If they aren't up double digits, they're gonna feel discouraged and their midget of a coach will lay into them.

Our coach will be telling our guys, "We got 'em right where we want 'em." We go out in the 2nd half and shut 'em down.

One advantage we have is they haven’t faced adversity all season long. They’ll be on the road, stadium will be loud, signals will be hard to communicate, mental mistakes will happen.

If we can capitalize on the home field advantage and rattle their usual game flow, who knows how they’ll respond

I honestly believe that we have a team here that can punch bama in the mouth. Our D is the best they've seen and our offense with burrow has played well in these type of games. This team is as prepared as an LSU team has been for this game in a long time.

Well stated.

But I’ll say this, the first drive of the second half from our defense will be key. If we are down 14 at half but can score on our first drive and then hold them to a punt (or turnover) on their first drive then it’s an all new ballgame. #FreeDevinWhite #WillisReedStatus

No shite! I was thinking something along the lines of 42-0 Tigers at the half.
