Spoiler....One is ranked 5th toughest in America and the other is 109th.

Free 24/7 article - How LSU and Alabama got to the No. 1 vs. No. 2 matchup




quote:

Alabama's path has been filled with fewer obstacles as the Crimson Tide played only one top-25 team. The Crimson Tide defeated a No. 21-ranked Texas A&M squad, 47-28, in College Station that is their biggest win thus far.

According to CPI Ratings (Comparative Performance Index), LSU has the nation’s fifth-toughest schedule in the country, while Alabama is 104 slots lower at 109 our of 130 FBS teams.

That is the only thing that has made me a little bit less worried about this matchup. They haven't played anyone worth a damn and once Tua went out they were a tennessee frick up away from being in a dogfight late in the 4th quarter.

Still not predicting a W. I just can't be burned again. I'll be watching, hoping for a good game and a favorable outcome. Just trying to enjoy these last games with Burrow at QB.

It’s Alabama. People are sitting here acting like the SOS actually matters. They are an elite team with elite players and elite coaching. They’ve proven that for 10 years. We will have to play to that same level to win.

Can we, absolutely, but anybody sitting here thinking we are gonna dominate them cause they haven’t played anyone and have 4 freshman starters is naive. They’ve owned us.

this is correct.

Have we played a harder schedule? Yes.

Do we have better wins? Yes

Does that really matter? No. Bama has great players and great coaches. Just because they've had a weak schedule up to now doesn't really mean a thing.

Let's just go out on Saturday and take care of business.
