re: Bama's Rush Defense overrated

I'm trusting Sampson to hook a brotha up

Have fun, bro!

I think they're very good. However you're point is well-taken in that they've played one top 20 rushing offense while LSU has played the 2nd, 8th and 14th rushing offenses, all 3 of which came prior to their current defensive starting lineup. LSU's typical 7 or 8 man run-blocking scheme is settling in and 'Bama will have to creep their safeties up to slow them down IMO. This plays into the one area of the passing game the Tigers excel in; the deep routes. Should be an interesting chess match.

LSU on their "A "game running the football and Bama with an "A game running defense .= very interesting..... The LSYU offense is what it is.... Not sure they can wear down Bama like they did Ole Miss, but one missed tackle could be the key to this game....


BUT That's not the issue for me... Bama's offense and adjustments they can make hopefully this YOUNG D steps up......

LSU's avg. rushing offense in 5 SEC games:
45.5 carries
197.8 ypg
4.3 ypc
Avg. rushing defense in 5 SEC games:
38.2 carries
186 ypg
4.8 ypc

Bama avg rush offense in 5 games
42.8 carries
187.6 ypg
4.4 ypc
Defense
33 carries
96 ypg
2.9 ypc

We have played the #8(AU) #14(MissST) #36(UF) #81(OM) #73(UK) rushing offenses. We've played #22(UF) #24(MissST) #26(AU) #33(OM) #94(UK) rushing defense.

Bama has played the #36(UF)#17(Ark) #80(A&M) #81(OM) #100(UT) rushing offenses. They've played #22(UF) #33(OM) #36(Ark) #86(A&M) #76(UT) rushing defenses.

Also some interesting Home/Away Offense splits for Bama:

5 Home games: 329 Passing ypg & 266 Rushing ypg

3 Away games: 225 Passing ypg & 139 Rushing ypg

---

Those are OFFENSE splits...

Yessir you're right about that.

Here are the numbers head-to-head



LSU vs Bama Game Preview

We will not run between the tackles on Bama. they can be had on the corners.

That doesn't prove anything wrong. I said they played one good rushing team this year which is why their defensive ranking is so high (2nd in the country).

But they completely dominated Arkansas so basically your "point" is pointless.

You're trying to discredit Bamas run defense and say they are overrated because they haven't played many good rushing teams yet when they played one of the best in the country, they dominated them.

It's contradictory and useless.
