🏈 BAMA-LSU Predict the Score

When I take a step back, LSU lost 2 of it's top 3 RB's from 2013, accounting for over 63% of all rushing yards. This freshman RB is really gaining steam, but it's hard to replace experience, especially in big games (and Hill was a really good back too). They also lost their number 1, 2, 3 and 5 receivers from 2013, accounting for over 82% of their receiving yards. Lost the QB as well... Really haven't replaced most of this lost production, which is why they run 48.5 times per game I guess. They also lost a number of defensive starters from the 2013 team. And that was a team we beat solidly, albeit at home. And we lost a number of defensive beasts and our QB. But I think they are getting a lot of credit for one decent game (Ole Miss), which wasn't really a pretty game. Maybe we are getting too much credit for one very good game against A&M, I don't know. But considering where they are with a new QB, new RB, new WR's, a close loss to Miss State and a blowout at Auburn, I really like our chances, even if we don't bring our best game. I predict we play pretty well, but have a number of penalties and at least one turnover, but we still win the game. I think they will run 40 times with limited success of about 150 yards and have little to no success in the air. What would help us is to score a couple early TD"s and take the crowd out, as we did at UT (at least for a quarter...), but I don't see it playing out that way. All of this to say.... We win 30-17

But as I tell my buddies, take my predictions to Vegas... and bet the other side...
