LSU vs. Alabama: What to Watch For

Been a bit of a slow week here, especially for such a big game, and everybody has their own reasons for it. Mine, mostly center around a general lack of enthusiasm. Sure I’m hopeful — and I’m damn sure going to break all this down for you and exactly how LSU can win this game.

But I can’t say I believe that they will. Alabama’s a 21-point favorite here, and based on how these two teams have played to date, they should be. They have out-classed the entire country in recruiting. They have the best coach in the country, maybe the best ever, and are in the middle of a run that is unprecedented, even when judged against the great college football dynasties of the past.
