How will Bama plan to defend against LSU and Jayden Daniels? I saw a comment on another site that made a lot of sense to me. It said that Saban will have their defense keep Daniels in front of them, and make him beat Bama with his arm. I think that is exactly how Bama will play it.

Questions for you: Is this what other teams have tried as well? Or is Daniels' emergence the last two weeks been a so remarkable that other coaches did not try to play it this way? Can our receivers get separation against their defensive backs? Can we get our running game going enough to relieve the pressure on Daniels?

They will attempt to keep LSU from getting first downs.

They will try to force turnovers.

They will plan to keep LSU from scoring.

Not only that, they’ll also try to have more points than LSU.

Saban will play man and bring pressure. He will make Daniels make throws downfield to beat him. I expect a lot of pressure coming from safety’s and corners. Daniels will need to throw it downfield when he sees 1-1 and trust his wr to make a play.

Im still going to make JD beat me with his arm. Key on RPO and run all day, but make JD throw. That would be my entire gameplan.

See Tenn defense against LSU. Now consider more talent on D for Alabama, and very good D coaching and two weeks to plan. JD still is bad throwing down field. He will have to be good Saturday down field, for LSU to have a chance. I don't think accuracy just suddenly improves. Maybe he will have a day to remember.

Yeah...lol...playing Bama will be significantly different than the two shite defenses we played the last 2 games. Think what Tenn did, and Bama is more talented.

if daniels can get the ball out quick, make good decisions, and be efficient with his legs, LSU has a good chance of beating alabama.

they just have to stay close in the 4th quarter

They will run the ball to control the clock and attempt to take the crowd out of the game early, imo.

They are going to hit Daniel’s hard every single chance they get. They will try to make him not want to run. Their plan is to get him out of the game.


Strategically , they will stop the run in general and force him to throw downfield. Nick knows he can’t let the LSU offense constantly have 2nd and 3rd with three yds or less to make a first down. Those drives take a toll and he knows this LSU team is in shape. Offensively , he will move the pocket to make our D line work. He will throw early to set up the run later. He wants to run the ball and control the clock this game. He wants to keep his defense off the field against LSU’s Oline.

Which is why LSU will get blown out.

No, he can’t. Not downfield he can’t.

Get pressure on Daniels while keeping him in the pocket.

This is Daniels big chance to show his mettle. If he comes through, LSU probably wins.

They’re going to match up Will Anderson and Dallas Turner on freshmen OTs with To’oto’o spying in the middle. Attack by running underneath them rushing up field.
