I don't think LSU's OL is going to hold up & I wasn't overly impressed with LSU's defense vs us. We got a ton of pressure on Burrow & aren't close to what you guys have.

I think LSU puts up a better fight than normal, but Bama wins 38-24

I agree. I like that score.

I think it comes down to Tua. Is he healthy and if so does he stay healthy. I suspect LSU defense will not be able to stop Tua and those WR. This may not be the best defense face by LSU this season but it will be the best Offense if Tua is in the game.

The question of the day is whether or not we can beat OFF.

[TUSK]

I’m kinda with you cats. I think if Tua plays/is healthy, Bammer 42-31ish...

If Mac is the guy, I’ll go Najee/Bammer 28-24ish....

Depends on how healthy Tua is.

And how clean the OL can keep him.

I'm expecting a shootout, which means it will be 6-3.

Healthy Tua. Bama by 7 (42-35)

Mac Bama. LSU by 2 scores (35-21)

[Rick Danko]

Have to see it to believe LSU.... will eat my crow if they prove me wrong.

On the road in BDS, Bama rolls 34-17

[LC Dawg]

I think the Trump visit combined with a 17 point Bama win makes a lot of happy inbreeding in the hills of Alabama Saturday night.

[Liverpooldawg]

Living too close to the Alabama line makes me say Geaux Tigers!

[KentuckyDawg13]

Even with the SEC refs helping you all per usual, LSU 32 Bama 27.

[Maroonthirteen]

Home field advantage. Alabama in a close one.

[Dawgbite]

I don’t trust Ogre not to do something stupid that costs LSU a chance to win the game.

Who has Bama beaten that has a pulse? A&M? Who else?

You guys are giving Bama too much credit for their past and not looking at what they're rostering this year. Outside of the game being played at BDS, I don't see another advantage for Bama in this game. Their defense is not a typical suffocating style defense and that will be the reason they lose. They can put up points, but not fast enough to keep up with LSU.

LSU wins 42 - 28

We've been told all year that both defenses are down, and both offenses are near unstoppable. Everyone, everywhere, is predicting some high scoring affair. A shootout is literally assured. Most of the time, when a shootout is built up like this, a defensive battle ensues.

I'm going LSU 17, Alabama 13.

[Cooterpoot]

Tua is about 90% and LSUs defense is overrated. AL is going to light them up 46-31.

[I seen it dawg]

LSU wins. Goes over the total of 65

I don't know maybe the 1st round qb and 3-4 NFL receivers several being 1st round talent. LSU struggled against us and Aubie to get the ball in the endzone. They will have to play much much cleaner if they want to win on the road.

I am in wait and see mode. Saban always has his guys ready for this game every year. Doesn't matter how they played in the games leading up to it they seem to always show up for this one. Now, LSU obviously won't be as easy to scheme against defensively this year but I still think Bama wins.

31-27 Bama-- Bama up by a couple scores going into the 4th.

It's going to take a pretty good defensive effort by LSU to win. I dont think they can pull that off. I'm certain bama will score with them.

[HailStateSZN19]

Think LSU puts up a good fight but they ain't beating Bama in T-town with Tua being healthy. I'll go something like 38-30 Bama wins.

[Maroonthirteen]

Will the light switch guy be there? It should be dark enough by 530 to flip that switch on and off, on and off to excite the fans that are tripping.

[Matt3467]

If it was the run heavy LSU of old I'd feel very confident with going Bama for the win, but LSU has a complete new identity on offense now. I think LSU wins.

[JoseBrown]

If Mac is the guy, I?ll go Najee/Bammer 28-24ish....

I'm thinking this way with your scores on a neutral field maybe, I'd have to give y'all the home field points on top of the scores you suggested.

[msstatelp1]

I think LSU is the more tested team at this point and pulls out a close win. 31-27

[R2Dawg]

Agree, outcome likely rests on Tua. Just not sure of Bama D this year. Looked OK at times and just not up to Bama levels at others. Burrow is a gamer; should be a good one. Unlike some years, I think the loser is out of CFP or they will need help like USC beating Clemson or something.

Well touche'...living close to the Louisiana line makes me say Roll Tide

[Jack Lambert]

LSU went on the road and scored 23 against Auburn. Probably the best Defense in the SEC. The game before they went on the road and only scored 36 against Miss State. Not the best defense in the SEC. State started three freshman on defense that game. Bama's defense is better than Miss States defense but not as good as Auburn defense. LSU will have to score more then 36 to beat Bama.

If Tua is healthy there will be a lot of dreams and hearts broken in Baton Rouge.
