Saban's gonna be blitzin soon as he steps off the damn bus. Can we handle his complex schemes? Maybe. If we pound their arse early, we'll have a great chance. But if we look confused on O early, I'm nervous about how we handle it. My key is, keep it close and wear them down in the 4th. Thoughts?

Dickson and Scott at FB is the key to Sabanistic blitzes. The middle of the field will be WIDE arse OPEN to slip those 2 out there.

I don't think we can handle the blitz...establish the run game early and hope it's successful.

I agree, hang in there till the 4th and we can pull it out.

A Meer Monkey defense and a young quarterback that can't pick up blitzes is a recipe for disaster. Hope Miles and the co DCs have the defense stabilized.

I would like to see Crowton run that pass play to a back out of the backfield over the middle to any of our backs. That play used to kill LSU when Saban was here, just a little slip screen right behind the blitz, I remember Florida using it repeatedly in '03.

The only thing that scares me is our moronic d-coords.

If LSU plays a great game, we will win even if Bama plays well. We're more talented and we have more depth than Bama.

I'm more worried about throwing over the middle than the blitz. If bama blitzes and gets to lee, so what a sack. However, lee throws over the middle of the field pic 6.

As long as we don't spot them points we can win. Saban's defense is always vulnerable over the middle. That's where we got burned all the time. If you need proof check the Ole Miss game. Manning floated a ball to a FB on a circle route out of the backfield. Then in the SECCG UGA had Lumpkin out the backfield on a similar route but Lumpkin dropped a sure TD. He was beaten many times at LSU with that scheme. Look at how UF picked apart that defense with not so great Chris Leak.

The problem is that Lee telegraphs his passes against base defenses when he has time in the pocket. He has trouble going thru his progressions as it is right now as he learns. So, can he settle down and find the open guy under pressure? or can Gary put together a gameplan that doesn't force him to.

Whatever Miles decides to do, I just hope he doesn't have Lee throw to the flats that often. That's where he has thrown the majority of his pick 6's.
