I'm not going to be bias in this game because I'm really a change man when it comes to betting. My college football record proves it (40-20-1) !*
This is my look at this game....
Alabama defense is #1 in the nation in most categories but if I'm wagering Alabama I would be concerned ... Why ? Those rankings are stacked up against the likes of .... 1) North Texas 2) Kent State 3) Penn state 4) Vandy..... Four teams that are retarded on offense. Not trying to be funny but it's not hard to be #1 in most categories when facing these struggling offense. They're pretty much self check! But don't get me wrong Alabama has a great Defense, just are not tested! They played one OK offense in Arkansas but it's proven they're not a good team
On the road, as they struggled greatly against Ole Miss and Vandy! Now to Bama offense!!!!!!!!
This is the part where I think Bama is OVERRATED! Whenever your RB is your 2nd leading reciever that tells me two things : 1) the QB do a hell of a lot of checking down 2) the coaches has no faith in McCaron throwing down field!
ALABAMA WR's SHOULD HAVE MONSTER STATS GOING UP AGAINST THE LIKES OF KENT STATE, NORTH TEXAS, AND VANDY!*
I'm sorry but Trent Richardson is not going to beat LSU by himself ! They better learn to get those WR's in the game because come Saturday this will have to be a TEAM EFFORT!
LSU on the other hand is extremely balanced! Just look
at the Auburn game when they lost 3 starters! LSU goes 4 deep
at RB! There's no 1 superstar. LSU has 3 solid receivers and 4 running backs. Just a lot of weapons. They don't depend on 1 guy to get them rolling, this team is deep and thrive on everybody not just one person. No one is talking about Spencer Ware which I find funny cause the guy is a animal! But anyway I think LSU shut Richardson down with there speed, this D will swarm all over him and force McCeron to throw the ball in the secondary! Alabama will need a team effort and I just don't see enough balance from this team
to beat LSU !
