LSU has not exceeded 4+ yards per carry in a game vs Alabama since LSU's 24-21 victory back in 2010. LSU should be able to control the ground game, on both sides of the ball, in tomorrows matchup.

Bama ranks 95th in the country in defensive stuff rate, which means I highly doubt we see another performance like the one Leonard Fournette had in 2016.

and that's just one advantage I feel the Tigers have over the Crimson Tide.

oh and one more interesting stat on Bamas ground game, Najee Harris long run of the season is just 25 yards.

He doesn’t have breakaway speed. He’s more of a bruiser back. Consistent 5-6 yards a carry

Agreed. He's not a dangerous home run threat, but he'll get his.

Totally off topic, but makes me wonder about his NFL draft stock. I've seen him mocked in the 2nd-4th round, and someone will get a good value.

He is similar to Davis Price,but runs more straight up.(I think Price will be better),bit they remind me of each other
