🏈 10 Reasons LSU will defeat Bama

[Thebayoulsucajun]

Obviously, you didn't catch BamaJay's sarcasm. Typical for the LSU fans I have to deal with every day. If LSU doesn't win, make sure you come back over here to take your lumps.

Obviously you didn't pick up my sarcasm. Bama fans should never make fun of LSU fans.

Bayou,

Every time CNS has had a chance to replay a team he lost to the year before (while at 'Bama), not only do they beat that team, they get skull dragged. Not to hard to look up. Bring a helmet.

BTW, you are completely retarded if you think this team's pass defense is anything close to last year. Randle is good, we wanted him bad, but he chose LSU. He will make some plays, maybe a big play for a TD. But if all LSU has is a few big plays, then ya'll are toast.

 

[BamaCore]

Man, you sure are cooking up a bunch of crow, again, bayou. I'll be sure to set the table for you in a couple of weeks. Make sure you come hungry.

 

[Crimson&WhiteGecko]

Also,

I have a ton of respect for the LSU program. They win over there, not in ways that I'm totally a fan of but they do it. The fact that this game is being SO hyped is a credit to them b/c they got this far. Everybody knows that they are not a fluke. But you come over here acting like 'Bama isn't even worthy to wipe thier as$. I hope the LSU program that actually matters thinks the same way you do; if they do-->> they will be gorilla stomped, skull dragged all over Bryant Denny. I don't think they will b/c they seem to be above your antics but if I am wrong, bring that helmet.

MAN I WANT TO PUT ON A HELMET!

Yeah, everyone remember the stat a few have alluded to about playing the team two years in a row?? Florida was probably even a little better than LSU... and we're a little better than we were in '09

10. Offensive Threats for Bama - Bama has 1 threat on offense. LSU will shutdown Richardson and can play the weak Bama Wr's 1 on 1. Mccaron will struggle.

This one point tells us how little this guy knows about Alabama's offensive threats. Trent is not all we have. Eddie Lacy and Jalston Howard could start for many teams. Our running attack is in good hands. I'm a big Jarrett Lee fan, but let me say this: A.J. McCarron has better stats than Lee in every category except QB rating (Lee - 157.4, A.J. - 150.4) TDs (Lee - 13, A.J. - 10) and interceptions (Lee - 1, A.J. - 3)). Lee has completed 62.3% of his passes (98 of 155) for 1,250 yards (156.2 YPG) while A.J. has completed 67% of his passes (134 of 200) for 1,664 yards (208 YPG). Don't tell us we have just one offensive threat.

I can not believe this thread was entertained. I stopped reading at the first reason.

 

['65 Cobra]

Ok, I will bite and respond.

1. Shouldn't they play their best anyway? I doubt missing last week will improve their play next week.

2. Maze is a good enough punt returner to burn you on the smallest mistake. No kicker is perfect.

3. Bama has one very good back and three more that will also see the field. Lacy would start many places.

4. Lee hasn't been pressured THAT much this year. Whether you want to admit it or not, the two QB system will backfire at some point. If Lee struggled the team may become divided. Bama's LBs contained Cam and his running ability last year--I think we can all agree Jordan Jefferson is no Cameron Newton.

5. Dre is rated among the top cover corners in college football. Some here argue Menzies is better. Couple that with Baron and Lester playing over the top, he won't run wild. The first long score in the AU game was a blown coverage by a freshman. The other he beat the D but he is far from unstoppable.

6. Yes, LSU has a deep d-line. I think you'll see that their o-line is better than ours. I wouldn't bank on the same type of consistent pressure.

7. I'd take Nick over Les. Saban is very good in revenge games. Miles won it in 2007, Saban took it in 2008 and 2009. I'd hardly say splitting the series is dominant.

8. If you think a night game at BDS is in your favor that synthetic LSU weed must be amazing.

9. I think you'll find Trent will not shy away from contact. Maze will make a play. I assure you Bama isn't scared of your kick coverage. Impressive? Yes. Terrifying? No

10. McCarron hasn't had to air it out yet so you're talking blindly. He has been efficient this year. Trent will keep your D honest and their o-line is good enough to give their FOUR running backs some room and provide AJ enough time for someone to get open. Maze and Hanks are not slouches by any stretch.

All in all, you're looking at this through purple and gold lenses. You're clearly not well-read on Bama and over-simplify everything. LSU can absolutely win this game but they will not completely shut down Bama's O.

If you're basing this off your performance against us, it is a bit of an unfair comparison. We have a young, beat up o-line, we were down two receivers and giving a QB his first start. LSU played well but that game was a recipe for disaster for us. If I were you I'd read up on a team before posting foolishly.

Excellent post and very fair assessment. I would only add that we beat up Florida pretty good, as well, and that had a major impact in LSU's blow-out.

 

[CrimsonPirate]

Btw, Thebayoulsucajun, I forgot to mention our receivers. Wouldn't trade 'em for anybody. Marquis Maze, Darius Hanks, Kenny Bell, Brad Smelley, Michael Williams - all can get the job done.

You're going to be fun, Offer a few thoughts here...

 

[themtigersagain]

I agree - well thought out post, sir.

I heard the same rhetoric last year and we won

Those are 3 pretty important stats. You made yourself look really dumb.

I can not believe you posted a picture of yourself. {deleted by mod} - MODERATOR'S NOTE: WE CAN HAVE A SPIRITED DISCUSSION WITHOUT NAME CALLING.

 

[BamaCore]

I also heard the same rhetoric from you 2 years ago and you lost. Your point?

Also, can we get someone to finally ban this guy? He's got nothing but the mentality of a typical 14 year old internet troll and his personal insults are just getting ridiculous.

 

[RollinInPcola]

The problem with ninety-nine percent of the fans of other teams coming here to post in the days before their game....they don't come to have an actual discussion. They come to argue and refute any counter-point to their argument.

 

[ElephantStomp]

I heard the same rhetoric last year and we won

If you think this is the same Bama team you played last year you're in for a treat. We're FAR better this year than we were last year. You have to look no further than our defense, but our offense is FAR better, so keep thinking this is the same team as last year and when you look up and we're up by a touchdown or two just remember this is the same team you played last year.

 

[Argo]

Let's not ban just yet. It'll be much more fun to slap him around for the next week. He'll leave after November 5 on his own. Much like the piggies from Arkansas did.

Fair enough. :lol:

 

[It Takes Eleven]

Just a note to everyone. This ain't the wild west, anything goes corner of internet. We can all have a good discussion, or provide unsupportable analyses, without the name calling.
