Plenty of warm up games on. It's supposed to be raining here in the Carolinas all day too.Tomorrow is going to be a long day till kick off.
You aint a kidding sister!Tomorrow is going to be a long day till kick off.
Plenty of time until then. You have my permission to slack off for the game; we need you.working on a deadline and trying to get done before Thanksgiving.
Again, from your post to God's ears.I am not a gambler, but if I was my money would be on Alabama this week. I think that you guys will be as focused and prepared as you were for Wisconsin.
Roll Tide!
This !!!RTR!!!
Any score as long as it's
LSU X
Bama X+1 or more
He's faced one good rush defense (Florida), three decent ones (Syracuse, Mississippi State and Western Kentucky), and three horrible ones (Auburn, South Carolina, and Eastern Michigan).I'm really worried about this game. It's valid to wonder if Fournette can be stopped. If there's anything hopeful to take away, it's that Chubb actually had a higher average and Alabama kept him in check really. But, that 7.3 average he ended up with just because of one big run is concerning. If Fournette averages 7 or more yards per carry against Alabama things could go a lot worse.
It isn't the huge runs that I think are likely to do Alabama in, it would be how many 5-10 yard runs that Fournette can string together. Against a common opponent, South Carolina (neither have played very tough schedules), Fournette was 158/7.9/1 and Chubb was 159/7.6/2.
We've seen Georgia without Chubb, they're a mess and by the same token if Fournette is held in check I think LSU would have issues. Last year Alabama held him to 3.8, they do that again and I think Alabama wins. Then again, last year three other team held him below that as well. This year no one has held him under 5. We shall see.
Good to know...a fourth of his runs go for either negative yardage or one or two yards at best. I feel good about our chances.Just under 10% of his rushes have gone for negative yardage. He's gained one or two yards 16.5% of his carries.
It's the key to the game, IMO. We have to put the game on Harris's shoulders. Make him prove his good stats are real. This is what we did to the Georgia QB, and it was proven his stats were vastly inflated.I'm really worried about this game. It's valid to wonder if Fournette can be stopped.
