I was just sharing the big games. There isn't really a transitive property. I am just sharing that our defense is going to give up a lot of points, so our offense will need to score a lot.



But examples of games where Alabama scored in the 20s does not show that they're capable of scoring in the 40s. Your examples do not lead to the conclusion you arrived at.

With the LSU game removed: Ole Miss is averaging 37 points per game Mizzou is averaging 33 points per game Ole Miss scored 56 against the LSU defense Mizzou scored 39 against the LSU defense

This is just so much horseshite. Since halftime of Mizzou this has been a different defense. Everything you mentioned happened before this. There is no telling how it will go. We know our defense won't dominate, but besides that we don't know.

Especially with the dumpster fire at CB. Reese is going to exploit our secondary.

No it’s not horse shite. LSU is to the point of playing high school talent at CB. If the situation were reversed and Alabama had our CB problem, BK and company would be very confident.

To be clear most people, including me, love LSU. How can we have faith in our defense that has failed badly this season. It’s not right to call out college players for poor play if they are giving it 100%. I know they are. But some of the defenders have NO business starting for a program at LSU level. I am not blaming a coach who really just got here. Some of these guys are experienced and May have reached their top level. Coach probably should have shifted some of the talent at offense to defense. Earlier in the season

We will have to score 50 to win. And even that may not be enough.

Lsu only being a 4.5 point dog down 2 starters on defense is very telling


Yeah, at home too. Almost like a pickem with no spread. Something tells me LSU wins by 10 points or more. It’s not that they don’t respect Alabama, LSU’s offense is just too explosive. Even when the offense isn’t playing perfect it can score big.

My only concern is I don't think we've seen a Defense as good as Bama's. Can we maintain the level of explosiveness we've shown


Fla State and Ala defenses are sort of on par with each other. And LSU lit them up in the first half.
