If we didn't move the ball well the last two times we played them, with one of those after a month of preparation then I doubt we do anything earth shattering to make it work this time.

Yeah, it's not like LSU rushed for 148 yards against Bama in BDS last year or that they rushed for over 200 yards in each of the last 2 games against Bama in Tiger Stadium.

Unfortunately, we won't do much of that. We have to play D, be flawless on special teams and dial up a few big plays. Although very good, Saban-coached defenses are prone to giving up a few. We have to capitalize on the few chances we do get and just try to win a fistfight of football game.

I think we'll get the best measurement of who Bama is as a team this weekend. They've beaten terrible/struggling teams ONLY this year. Their banner win thus far is vs a REALLY so-so Michigan team in week 1. That said, I think we'll do much more of the same. Lots of swings, screens and 1-2 step drops with a heavy rushing attack. Whoever wins the battle on the lines will win the game.

It will be a low scoring affair either way. All the Bama fans who think it'll be another 21-0 affair are sadly mistaken.

Run, run then run. Burn the clock so our defense can get some rest.

We are unleashing secret playbook. The sunshine puppets believe we will move the ball and drop 40 on bama.

I hope you're right, but 21-0 is a relatively low scoring game. Few Bama fans think they are going to run up some huge number on us, but they think their very capable offense will score a reasonable amount - say, 17-24 - and that our poor to mediocre offense will struggle mightily. I hope they are wrong but they have every reason to believe it.

Play loose, sort of like South Carolina.

Simplify the offense if need be to 7 or 8 plays. Use the little whip around Utah pass like we did vs SCAR. Try the HB pass from Ware. Wildcat. End arounds.

We can win and not be a shocker. But the Florida offense and the A&M reluctance to go for the throat won't get it done.
