LSU wrap-up: Bama makes physical statement in suffocating win over Tigers
by Jess Nicholas, TideFans.com Editor-in-Chief

At one point in the run-up to Alabama’s game against LSU on Saturday night, the rental live tiger that had been secured for this game by LSU school officials appeared to be sleeping in his cage.

A fitting scene, especially since the Tigers themselves fell asleep at the wheel in the game that followed, allowing Bama’s Jalen Milroe to run all over them for the second consecutive season. The result this time was much the same as the first time Milroe was allowed unfettered access to the second and third levels of the LSU defense.

Nice write up. It was a great game all around.
Injuries are a concern.
We need to play the same way next week and get starters out by beginning of 3rd quarter to get ready for OU and Auburn.
I haven't really watched OU play this year.. have only read about them. I look forward to reading your thoughts about them in a few weeks.

Sometimes you just don't need to pass much. This was one of those times. Okie and the Barn may be different. The coaches do a great job of taking what the defense gives.

Yeah. you just never know. We might have to pass more against Mercer. I know nothing about them except they are in my state and 9-1.

I hope in addition to Rat Traps in the facilities they post the Vandy score everywhere too.

We can’t take anyone lightly the rest of the way…even Mercer.

This is the most one sided LSU vs Alabama game in a long time. Maybe their injuries did contribute. The fans leaving early surprised me. Alabama played a great game. As a side note the Ole Miss defense looked good against Georgia. They have 31 transfers. Takes more time now to get teams on the same page under the new system.

If anything you need to do it to knock the rust off and get confidence that you can still do it.

There’s not much chance Mercer can handle last night’s interior rushing and end arounds. I hope Milroe works on some consistency with his mid range passes and gets his rhythm down.

I also hope to see this level of intensity so the game gets out of hand quickly.

This Alabama team looked much like a Saban team. They played with relentless toughness and made their ass quit! Roll Tide!!

 

[CrimsonEyeshade]

Milroe was superb.

 

[ROCKEE]

That’s the best we have looked “as a complete”game in 2 years. Our intensity was awesome for 4 quarters. Just keep it up and we can make a run in the playoffs. RTR!

 

[CrimSonami]

Thanks Jess. Glad to finally see, as many of us here have wanted, dedication to establishing the run game first. We do this the rest of the way and offensive balance will surely follow.
Roll Tide!

 

[VirginiaTide57]

Didn’t need to pass as much but I’m guessing the rain also played a role in play calling. great effort! Roll Tide.

 

[Windsortide]

Great write up. We keep running the explosives will show up. We had a drop last night and at least one miss but they are available because the team is establishing the run.

 

[Krymsonman]

Nice write-up Jess. Glad your pick was wrong. We need to keep this effort up the rest of the way.

 

[Ledsteplin]

Yeah. you just never know. We might have to pass more against Mercer. I know nothing about them except they are in my state and 9-1.

Yeah, a 9-1 team in any conference can be a thorn.

 

[78Alum]

Great write-up as always, Jess. Glad to get that one behind us in such a domination fashion. Roll-on Tide!

 

[DrollTide]

Milroe was superb.

Yeah. I was about to complain about the deep ball, but I think the defense mostly took that away. The thing with Milroe is, you can't take everything away. I think we'll see the deep ball again.

I absolutely loved watching this game. The trash throwing and fans leaving just made it all the better to watch. I like the way the rest of the season lines up for us now.

Me too. You forgot to mention the fact that Nick Sheridan and crew left the press box area with 2 minutes left to come to the sidelines to celebrate. That was great.

That was a great shot by the broadcast to show that to couple with the people piling out of the stadium! LOL! ROOOOOOOOLL TIDE, ROLL!!!!
