re: Burrow has a method to beat Bama

Exactly.

Lawrence got hit a shite ton in the Natty. But he’s tough as hell and got the ball out before getting hit.

Scheme beats Bamas animals up front even due to their lack of talent in the secondary

getting the ball out quickly.

Exactly. From same story linked:

LSU’s offense will be predicated on getting the ball out of his hands quickly. That could help negate what is always a formidable Alabama defensive front.

I don't think it's entirely about getting the ball out quickly all the time, but about proper timing, decision making and accuracy under pressure.

If you only use short drops and throw short routes, you'll struggle to find enough plays that can break through the Bama secondary/LBs.

It takes a good offensive design and a QB that has the arm, toughness and intelligence to deliver an accurate ball under pressure, on time and to the right read. Trevor Lawrence took some hits in the pocket against Bama, but he still dropped dimes on his receivers that were on time to areas that were low risk and high reward. It's about exploiting that Bama aggressiveness. I think Joe Burrow's athleticism and arm talent are both underrated and will finally give LSU some advantages at the QB position for the first time since Jamarcus Russell/Matt Flynn.

fabulous, until they start squatting on short routes. our OL has shown struggles last two years at protecting for intermediate and deep routes. it is why we went to max protect last year yet we still failed because then you limit number of receivers yet we still could not block worth a shite at TIMES even in max protect.

we will need to use the hole damn field and when we spread horizontally we need to gouge vertically/north -south CUM/gus bus-freeze-dabo style when they have beaten bama.
