Both are tremendous players,

This will be interesting to see how Aranda schemes it.

One thing for sure after watching Bama, our Dbs must play at LOS, against Bama...

Just can not let them run wild with a buffer...must jamb them to throw off timing, then trap Tua to the inside where he meets White and gets lit up. :)

Bama TE is a favorite target for TUA...

I think we will stop their run, it's Bama's passing that is special.

MSU is physical team, we best be ready for a fight

For MSU, make Fitzgerald beat you with his arm.

For Bama, pray that Tua’s knee doesn’t heal in time.

Fitzgerald is a running QB

Tua is mobile but not a running QB

Saban seemed to downplay it, but he was in that tent an awful long time and mommmy and daddy Tua went into the tent. I think Saban didn't want to draw attention to it, but is secretly praying that no one hits him low when he plays again.

Man, frick Tua. What did Fromm do exactly with his 72.8% completion percentage? Anyone? 15/32. Wait till Bama steps on the field against the preseason #25th ranked team in the nation, their only challenge until their auto-pass-no-matter-what to the playoffs.

It's their scheme combined with that darn offensive roster. Defense is also getting better. Their offense reminds me of what their defense used to be. Our front 5 or 6 will have to play its best game of the year bc we will need all 5 or 6 back their in the secondary.

Aranda will really have to mix it up and give them looks they haven't seen. We really need one of our younger NTs to step the frick up man. We need some bigger badder DLman in these next two classes. At least 3 or 4 in each TBH. That's where it starts. I might bring big Rosenthal back from the OL to DL.

I think our future at OL is pretty dang good if they can settle in. Our guys we have developing are going to be darn good players. Need that big bad DL. Then add some more LBers like Phillips. Need some DEs pretty bad. I would really like to see LSU start recruiting bigger but still quick pass rushing DEs. Between 6'2-6'6 and 260-275. Someone mean, tough, quick, agile and sets the edge with a mean streak but can also drop back into the flats or short. Get in passing lanes like a TE that can rush like Spears was.

Okay as in not needing immediate surgery. Watched him last night and he is not right, nor will he be until after the season. He doesn't want to come off the field and will continue to give it a go. He is going to need surgery on his knee once their season is over. His parents visited him in the medical tent when he came off the field. That should tell you volumes about his health. That being said, unless he damages it further in the upcoming game, fully expect him to start against us.

The fact that Tua is Light year better as a passer than Hurts is the concern. We came awfully close in 2016. If we had any offense and/or the stripes had called one of the three OLinemen for holding on the touchdown they scored. We may have won that game.

You aren’t winning any games where you score 0 points.

uh, you should be, he is quick as a cat, he makes defenses pay if the pass isn't there...have you ever seen him take a sack? The one time I've seen was in the National championship game and then he proceeded to win the game on the next pass.

Bama WR's are mega fast...we can not let Bama get the big play...they seem to score on the first or second play of the game, it's stupid how easy they make it look sometimes, then they look very average running the ball at times.

will be interesting game... I bet we are still 11-13 pts underdogs to them

This game will show us just how far Orgeron has come.

He’s always been a good interim guy who can get the time fired up to play when their backs are against the wall.

But can he keep this team from avoiding a letdown after beating the #2 team in the country?

He's not Hawiian, he's Samoan.

I was being sarcastic. He’s very good.

But Saban isn’t a dumbass and he knows the power run game will give us more trouble than an aerial attack. I’d expect to see some Hurts option packages either way.
