Bama's weakness is their secondary, and they can be beaten with a mobile QB and that damned read-option offense. Its Saban's Kryptonite.

I think LSU would have had a better chance in that game if they had let Harris just launch it all game. We were obviously stacking the box to stop Fournette.

Miles is obviously a great recruiter, but X's and O's... not so much.

Yep. Who knows if the outcome would have been different, but I certainly feel the game would have been at the very least a much more competitive one. I felt those two teams had very similar talent on paper, with the exception being LSU's depth at D-line is a bit thin. Which is unusual.

Just no excuse not to give your team the best chance. I'm sure Les is a really nice guy, but unfortunately that is not what he's paid for.
