Can any football team, not in the NFL, slow Alabama football? No team is invincible and no offense is so potent that it can’t be constrained by a great defense. Notice, I said constrained, not stopped. Slowing the Alabama football offense has not occurred in the 2018 season. The quality of the Crimson Tide’s opposition has been a factor.
On Saturday night inside the cauldron known as Tiger Stadium, the defensive foe will be plenty stout. Just how that salty LSU defense should go about constraining the Crimson Tide offense is debatable.
On Monday, two guys who know football, the two teams and have first-hand knowledge of the rivalry disagreed.
