Bray should just take a medical redshirt if he can.

Absolutely.

Don't think he can.  Five games is more than 30% of the regular season which is the highest percentage I'm seeing to still be eligible for a waiver.

Seriously though, why are they keeping Simms in there? He is absolutely horrible. Is their 3rd stringer even worse because this is ridiculous... Poole is about the only thing that works on that offense.

Simms is the best we have at QB now.  Just the way it is.  Our two best offensive players, Bray and Hunter are injured.  You go to war with the army you have not the army you want.

That said, McCarren and Hightower and Richardson have woken up and are stellar players.

OKSt most likely since the computers seem to love them for whatever reason. I picked a bad time to go to be last night. Missed OK and Wis getting beat. Two weeks, then Les Miles breaks out the magic cap for the first time this season. Considering LSU and Bama are damn near even in just about every category, this one is going to come down to pixie dust.

LSU is a better team than Bama, from my unbiased viewpoint.

They have a more dynamic offensive presence, while Bama is almost entirely based around the ability to run the ball. If LSU can take that away from Bama, they have nothing (see: what Tennessee did in the first half).

LSU with their entire defense intact is on par with Bama, but not really better or worse. It's just different. Alabama has a suffocating style that causes more 3 and outs than any team in the nation. HOWEVER, if you can get past the first series, Bama has trouble. It's a shock and awe style of domination. LSU on the other hand, doesn't really care if you move the ball. What the do is capitalize on your mistakes. They are turnover machines, and they have the best turnover margin in the nation to prove it.

I give the edge to Bama in terms of linebackers, LSU has the edge in the secondary, and both lines are a wash on the defensive side of the ball. I think LSU has more depth at QB and RB and WR, but depth only matters if someone goes down or wears down... again, the O-lines are a wash. The swapping QB thing I am a little leary of, but it has appeared to work... though if Jefferson comes in, it almost always comes down to some sort of running play. I think LSU will force McCarron to beat them and force the game on the LSU secondary - playing to their strengths. Likewise, Bama should try and force Lee/Jefferson to beat them, though with 4 viable RBs in the backfield for LSU, I can see them try and wear down that line and linebacking core with constant rotating of fresh RBs into the game. Being in Bama will be an influence, albeit a small one considering LSU's schedule and road warrior attitude. LSU is a team that keeps pace until the second half and if they continue that course, they have the edge. But all that said, I think Bama is the team that can run all four quarters with them.

I am going to see a lot of Xanax and Nitroglycerin to watch this game if it remains close after 3 quarters.
