Alabama-LSU: Healthier secondary could give Tigers defensive edge

To get you better prepared for Saturday night’s prime-time matchup of No. 7 Alabama and No. 4 LSU, we’re spending every day this week breaking down a key factor in the game.

Today, we look at the battle between Alabama’s passing game and LSU’s secondary.

David Ching: In terms of experience and talent, this seems like a matchup that would favor LSU, which boasts one of the top collections of defensive back talent in the country.

We’re operating under the assumption that four-year starter Jalen Mills and three-year starter Tre’Davious White will both be good to go for the Tigers.
