LSU will definitely give them a game. Bama has played nothing but cupcakes. When they actually play even a decent team like A&M they look very average. I think this is by far the worst team Bama has fielded in the last 10 years. They may end up dropping 2 games. I think they lose to Auburn for sure and they'll probably drop 1 between this game and the Mississippi State game.

As much as I want Alabama to lose, I just don't see LSU whipping them - especially in Alabama.

Alabama has played 2 true away games so far this year. 2. How can we get that type of schedule?

They didn't like the grind on the ground scheme which Les ran so they made a change. Losing so many early season games they should have won is the symptom, it's not the problem. The problem is that LSU is going through some severe growing pains.
Somebody will underestimate LSU but not Saban. He seems to have an antidote for rat poison. Maybe next year.

LSU lost to the 3rd best team in Alabama ...so they will not have any chance of toppling the current #1 team in Alabama ... or so goes the logic .

But against Alabama on a Saturday night in the Deaf Valley? I would not be surprised.

Bama is favored by three touch downs. They’ll win this game.

It'll be interesting to see if LSU can bring the pressure and if Hurts can handle it in the pocket. To me, that's Alabama's biggest question mark.
Still, I think Bama wins. Not by much, though.

I think Hurts is the real deal now.

He has really matured and I think can handle whatever comes at him. I think Bama's D is worse than in the past though. You can run on them now more than in the past.

Hurts is actually behind on his pace from last year

Hes still around 62% completion percentage. TDs are down. Yards are down, but INTs are also way down.
THey are just making sure that he's not in a 3rd and long situation. Remember the NC game, whenever we stuffed them on 1st down, you migth as well assume punt. He couldn't play behind the chains.

Going back about 15 years this game is almost always decided by about 9-10 points or less, so even when one team is up and the other is down they still keep it close and somewhat competitive on the scoreboard. I think Alabama is definitely the better team but LSU could be the one non-spread team that has been able to compete with them throughout the saban years.

LSU is not a good football team. Bama will beat them easily and still not have played anyone.
