I'm guessing we like our WRs vs. their DBs but Saban has 2 weeks to come up with a scheme to take away Landry and Beckham as options. Do they double cover both and man up everywhere else?

Having a reliable third option in the passing game would really be nice now.

Jarvis and Odell will expose their sorry DBs.

Our ability to keep their offense on the field on 3rd downs in order to fatigue them.

We play them on the road. Will be more tiger fans at the game in the 4th quarter.

our offense certainly has the capability to put up plenty of points on their defense

If they double cover both of them, Hill will have a huge day. I think they still stack the box and force the passing game to beat them. Hopefully we can take advantage and not force the I formation all game

Their DBs are no match for our WRs.

Our OL should be able to handle their DL.

Their LBs concern me a little, especially if they blitz.

Their offense against our defense terrifies me. We cannot get pressure on the QB unless we blitz a DB. McCarron is a seasoned, talented QB. He will sit back in the pocket and shred our secondary. Look for him to also throw to a RB as a safety valve and for said RB to knife through our LBs and DBs like hot butter. Their RBs will absolutely destroy our DL to smithereens.

I'd be surprised if LSU Defense holds Bama to 35. That is just a miserable unit.

Our head coach is much taller, particularly if you factor in the hat.

Someone else is going to have to step up and make plays. Kadron Boone, whomever. Jeremy Hill is going to have to rush for 120+ just to eat up some clock and move the chains. To beat Alabama, we will have to outscore them. We better be prepared to put up 42+ points.

OM defense is no match for our offense. Sound familiar? You people that think Bama can't defend our offense are funny.

Depends what offense shows up. I tend to think we are going to be conservative and run Hill a lot.
We lit them up in TS last year once we opened up the passing game.

If there was ever an occasion for our coaches to personally direct a challenge to our DL to step up this is it.

Also, we will not win by just throwing on them. We must be able to consistently and effectively run the ball on them. Keeping the ball in our offense's hands will be our most effective defense against them.
