I don't know that I consider "worry" to be the most appropriate term, but the team I have the most concern as to LSU's ability to defeat, it's easily Alabama. For reasons that are plainly obvious.

Auburn doesn't scare me with their offense, even though they had a big game the other night. I think that was kind of fluky, and Mississippi State isn't very good. They have a good defense, but LSU can score in the 30's on them, I feel very confident of that. And unless LSU turns it over a bunch and gives away cheap points, I don't think they can keep up. LSU's defense has struggled, but our defense almost always matches up well with Malzahn's offenses, because they don't throw it downfield very effectively.

Florida doesn't impress me. But I do wish Franks hadn't gotten hurt. I mean, I don't wish injury on anyone, regardless of how much I might dislike them, but I think they got better after he went down. And I was just really looking forward to seeing LSU come after him, specifically.

Maybe Bo Nix will improve a lot, but I just don’t see him being able to consistently push the ball down the field against our secondary. Knowing that, I think Aranda loads the box early to shut down the run, which is the catalyst for their whole offense.
Hopefully by the time Auburn realizes this and starts mixing things up our offense will have put up a 2 or 3 score cushion that we can hang on to for the rest of the game. Easier said than done against their defense, but if they have a weak spot it is their secondary.
