Ole Miss has a very opportunistic defense. I don't see us giving up 4 turnovers against Bama. We will have our chances.

They also had a feature back Named Walker that carried the ball 30-35 times a game. You just can't do that anymore.. He was a special,special once in lifetime athlete... He was a way better player than almost anyteam he went against... He was a man amoung boys back then... In todays game its just not the case......


The game has changed and passing is much more prevalent than it was in the early 80's but many run heavy teams have won the NCG. 16 pass attempts for this LSU team isn't a bad thing, it means a low scoring game where LSU has a chance to win. I don't expect more than 20 pass attempts unless LSU is trailing and this was my prediction before the year started.

Honestly, after watching the passing game this year I wouldn't care if LSU only attempted 10 passes a game as long as the running game is clicking. The passing game scares the hell out of me and I'm sure it does Coach Miles as well.

Bamas passing game scares me more then our "lack" of a passing game........... Sims has had some real effective days throwing the ball. A way more balanced attack than LSU has......

I'm more worried about Sims running than throwing. I believe LSU will keep the Bama passing game in check.

if you sit here and tell me that we'll beat Bama going 8-16 with two picks you're sorely b mistaken.


But what if the eight completions are for 300 yards and 4 TDS? Huh huh huh? What about that, huh? Yeahhhhh

For the record, in 1980, Walker was a freshman and averaged 22 carries a game...

it wouldn't be a thread without dukke v jumping in sounding like a little scared girl. I swear, this is your MO....always on the ledge about something. Apparently you haven't watched him on the road this year, specifically against Ole Miss and Arkansas....he is not that good, unless playing cupcakes...and LSU is stacked in the secondary, and the crowd will be crazy....grow a set and quit being so negative. I think you get your rocks off by coming on here and acting like a scared little girl.

this would be the correct answer. I don't think Simms will beat LSU passing....Dukke is just, well, dookie.

Cooper has 71 catches. The closest reciever to him has 23 catches.

Looks a little one sided to me. You bracket Cooper and are able to keep him limited, it'll throw off Sims.

Everyone always complaining about Jennings going to Dural too much and not looking at other WR's.....Sims has the same issue.

I guess you left that part out of your continual preaching that LSU is terrible?

Nope. Their passing game relies far too heavily on Cooper and creating mismatches with him.

It's going to be a low scoring game IMO.

Eliminate the picks and I'll take 8/16 for a buck fifty or so. That would mean the Tigers are running the ball about 50 times which almost certainly points to victory.

dude you attack me on here constantly.....acting like you are some expert, then talk shite to us who actually are realistic......you sound like a little kid on here, yet you claim to be about 55-60. You should be embarrassed. Everyone on this site slams you....and then you post to chicken thinking you have some credibility....I don't know chicken, but I'd think he would probably consider your request to him just another example of a little girl......I really am through with you......you are the type poster that brings out the worst on this board.....EVERYTHING is knee-jerk, on the ledge, LSU sucks at this, negative bs. I'm done with your sorry arse.
