Read just 3 weeks ago that the ALA-GA game was the most physical college football game of the season and that LSU had no chance in matching ALA intensity and strength in the trenches. Now ALA is all of a sudden soft and not a dominating force on either offense or defense. Guess we'll see on Sat. That should be the difference in the game if all other things are equal.
Geaux Tigers!

BS BAMA is still a very talented team,just not as deep as they once were.Both teams need this game they will be ready as will we.

Alabama may be a lot of things, but "soft" is not one of them.

This board is schizophrenic. One week, Bama and UGA are way more physical than us and totally unbeatable. The next week, they’re soft.

Sounds like after a couple of weeks of healing up, that UGA-game-squad will be the Bama team we'll be facing.

They are returning their best run stopper that has missed some games. I expect their Dline to be as good as ever. Not sure their offense is though. Hope not.

We lost our center and L guard, the replacement OL was pretty bad. It all depends on who plays, or doesn't, as to which version you get.

Getting their NT Green back this week is huge for them. We don't have a great interior OL. That is a problem matchup for us.

Bama isn’t great but they aren’t bad. They are very comparable to LSU in that regard. If you look at where they rank in the league, they are 2 in Off YPG and 8th in Def. Their offense has been better in conference play than ours.

Can’t go by that. We are clicking at the right time. Add Green to the pot.
