What will the GAME come down to for LSU to WIN?

The TIGERS need to be really physical upfront and challenge the best DEFENSE man for man pound for pound in the COUNTRY. LSU doesn't like to throw it but when they do they are very efficient. Look for them to use a lot of PLAY-ACTION as well as the SCREEN GAME to neutralize the TIDE's SPEED and QUICKNESS sideline to sideline.

DEFENSIVELY the TIGERS have to maintain SOUND GAP CONTROL because over-pursuit vs a very discipline 'BAMA Team will have you in trouble all night. Look for the TIGERS to Sneak a SAFETY in the BOX to solidify the RUN game of "BAMA and their EARL CAMPBELL of a Running Back in Trent RICHARDSON. LSU's Secondary led by Corners MO CLAIBORNE and the HONEY BADGER Tyrann MATHEIU is also well-schooled but they gamble a lot and love to JUMP ROUTES. Look for 'BAMA to try to use a lot of Stop and GO (9 ROUTES) and Crossing ROUTES to neutralize LSU's Aggressiveness in the SECONDARY.


What will the GAME come down to for ALABAMA to WIN?

The CRIMSON TIDE are a carbon copy of LSU...they like to win upfront and then start to work on the PASSING GAME next. All-AMERICAN RB Trent RICHARDSON will try to punish the TIGERS to the point they have to move extra help into the BOX so then BAMA will go to PLAY ACTION and the GAME might get out of hand if 'BAMA can do that.

DEFENSIVELY the ROLL TIDE must dominate the MAMMOTH LSU Offensive Line and make them one-dimensional. Look for 'BAMA OLB Dontae HIGHTOWER and ALL-AMERICAN Safety Mark BARRON to set the TEMPO for the TIDE. If 'BAMA can STOP the LSU Run GAME that would force the BAYOU BENGAL TIGERS to throw the PIGSKIN a lot and I don't think LSU is entirely comfortable in throwing the PIGSKIN over 40 times in this game. They want to keep it balanced attack.


WHO WILL WIN this BEHEMOTH of a MATCH-UP?

Both Teams are averaging around 40 Points per game Offensively but 'BAMA is giving up less than a TD while the TIGERS are giving up a little over 11 per game. But this stat is misleading as the TIGERS gave up most of them points to the MOUNTAINEERS and QB Geno FORD about a month ago.

the LSU TIGERS will WIN....they have been highly successful vs SABAN and Company and it will continue SATURDAY and look for the MAD HATTER...LSU's Head Man Les MILES for some TRICKERATION in the KICKING Game somewhere.


Also look for a REMATCH in the BCS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP game on JANUARY 9th 2012 in GUESS WHERE?....the Mercedes-Benz SUPERDOME in New ORLEANS a home game for LSU.
