re: Just looking at the numbers for Alabama's running back (Posted on 11/4/11 at 7:07 a.m. to themunch)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At looking stats comparison, the strength of schedule plays a huge role in running the numbers up...but that's ok, its not worth getting in a pissing contest over,..Richardson will get his numbers, ...but...LSU will win the game..you have to put the ball in the endzone..we can manage that...run up and down field..but no touchdowns.

I've mainly just looked at the head to head stuff versus Tennessee and Florida and it's pretty much even but yeah I don't think I'm gonna convince any of you that Alabama is gonna win and I don't think any of you are gonna convince me that LSU is gonna win

Tennessee 17 for 77 about 4 and a helf per carry

That kind of jumps out at me.... If Tenn. can keep him in check, I am gonna jump out there and say this Tiger D sure as hell can!

Thier schedule looks so dam soft, the negaters will have a wake up call Sat. night!

That can be misleading though if you watched the game....Tennessee had eight guys in the box and the 9th one was walkin the line to it pretty close....I mean anybody can be stopped if you do that, I don't care who you are. It took a solid half before McElwain figured that out or Saban let him call some passes but what happened after that was 3 quick tds in the third with like 8/8 completed to start the first two drives in the half and only 3 or 4 plays to score the first one...then that opened up the run and TRich finished strong like usual......If I was Chavis I'd do exactly the same thing and make McCarron beat me but the thing is contrary to what many LSU fans think is McCarron can beat you...will he I don't know he's facing a great defense with better corners.....but I watched Austin burn the honey badger alot of times in the WVU game and Maize is about identical as you can get to Austin....and anytime you put some guys out on there own like that it can get risky....but you don't have to complete but one or two big plays down the field and you gotta take theat 8th and 9th guy out of there so it's gonna come down to who can execute their offense....I've seen every team basically put 8 or 9 in the box at one point in the game at least so far this season and I've been happy with McCarron recognizing it and making a smart play with the football....I have confidence that when one on one converage is their with no safety help then we have enough playmakers to make plays against anybody...except maybe Darrel Revis

I agree with everything you just said....I never said TRich would have a great game with 100 plus....i would even bet against it, were gonna have to make some plays through the air either on screens or down the field....He was made out to be just another back, I think we can both agree that he's a special talent. It started with someone saying that seven ypc and 2 tds a game isn't good....I say thats pretty good against anybody....hes not gonna have 7 ypc against lsu and I know that

Lol...well it's pretty obvious Coach Saban is a liar isn't it

We have won 16 times by 10 plus in Baton Rouge in the series but I don't think its gonna happen till either coach dies or quits

I'm sorry you have to revert to throwing in grammar on a message board. I could show you some of my published work if you like, and you can spell check that for me too. Yes, I was saying of all the defenses over the years this one is as good or better than the previous ones, such as 92. Strength of schedule is slightly stronger than Bama's right now. If Oregon gets beat by Stanford then I would say ours is stronger. West Virginia has lost again if you haven't noticed. Offensive line is good, Alabama defensive line is good....saying one trumps the other isn't getting anywhere...McCarron hasn't played in a big game yet....neither had McElroy when he won the national championship.....Courtney Upshaw is gonna be healthy for this game this year

Their the same teams! Read over it again, maybe you will understand it this time

Also LSU's biggest wins are Oregon and West Virginia to Alabama's Arkansas and Penn State....pretty close to me unless you believe the Oregon PAC 10 hype that says that conference is good

what have I said thats so ridiculous...everything I have said is rational and pretty much true....the post was started by someone trying to say TRich isn't good when...apparently yall are trying to argue that Bama's offense and defense were better last year than this year....I know both teams offenses and defenses are better than last...they are both talented, both been blowin everybody out, and its in Bryant Denny Stadium where its been hard to win over the past three years.....plus last year had nothing to do with this year....both teams are entirely different

Yeah, and we got a way better D this year......plus a offense thats leading the SEC and is more balanced than its ever been....I'm not saying that either team can't win or lose but to say that one will beat the other by 10 is stupid especially when the majority of teams over the past thre years havent even scored 10 in bryant denny and this game has been close every year
