One thing a talking head said that I will agree with is that we do a piss poor job of getting the ball to our great stable of RBs out of the passing game. Bama has been able to get TR involved in the passing game with great results this year. If we get that going a little bit in the title game, watch out. We saw Kenny catch a TD out of the backfield against UGA. I want more of that.

I always like KWilliams.So no it wasn't me saying that. Also KHilliard is listed at 240 and TRich is listed at 228. So he only has TRich by 15 lbs. Look Hilliard could get to TRich's level as a running back , but he isn't there yet. I'm sure 98% of knowledgable football fans would agree. It's not fair to Hilliard to compare them though. One is a junior and one is a true freshman. Honestly Bama's third string rb,Fowler, is a better comparison as of now.
I really like the way Hilliard runs though.

They can't help it. I think it's the same ones that used to talk shite about Miles when we went 8-4 and 9-3. We're undefeated and they have to botch about something.

I know he retired long ago, but Alfred blue reminds me of Eric Dickerson. Very similar running styles.

wrong, I don't know where you are getting that info, but Richrdson is 220. Fowler is a better comparison to Hilliard. You are basically sayin there No. 2 guy who is Lacey is better than Hilliard and that's not true, actually Lacey is more comparable to Hilliard, although he doesn't have Hilliards power, he has good movement like Hilliard.

This is one area JJ has improved from last year, he can complete screens and short slants. I sat in Vandy's stadium last year in awe of our inability to complete wide open screens.

Saying Fowler is a better comparison to Hilliard doesn't imply how the poster thinks the comparison would turn out. He makes a good point. They have the same amount of experience and similar styles. TR is a very different kind of back. I'm very excited about Hilliard's upside, but don't be surprised if Fowler turns out to be just as good. Both of these teams are loaded.

You can't put LSU's passing game in the same bucket. AJ is not a great passer but he's a lot better than JJ or JL. LSU is ranked 105 in yards/game out of 120. That's terrible. Bama's not great but not that bad at 72.

No, AJ isn't alot better than any one. Most of his yards are against pansy defenses or check downs to TR. The only reason your passing game is higher ranked is because of your shite schedule and TR being able to break tackles.

quote:

Defense is close but we're still significantly higher. In SEC only stats Bama is #1 and LSU #2 but yards allowed are 180 vs 224 which quite a large difference for a 1 and 2.

See above answer when you play against weaker competition your stats are going to look better.

quote:

You have a great punter who can flip the field but the real difference in net punting is only 5 yards. FG's is signficant. LSU has made all of their SEC 14 attempts and Bama in only 11/18.

We also have the Honey Badger and he seems to have gotten used to the SEC speed on returns though Bama would be completely retarded to kick to him after the last two games. I think that will play into it as well. It is much harder to still kick the ball far and avoid the return guy. That's when you get alot of shanks.

I don't think they are similar at all. Hilliard's quick feet is the difference, he has good agility for such a big guy meaning he can make you miss tryin to tackle him, Fowler doesn't have that kind of ability. If Hilliard doesn't make you miss as I said earlier he can run you over with power as that poor Georgia DB found out. Fowler is slower than Hilliard and Ole Miss in which he ran for good yardage is not a good indicator because they have a terrible run defense.
