Challenges for Alabama
To stop LSU you have to shut down big-time dual-threat quarterback Jayden Daniels. So far this season Daniels has 1,812 passing for 12 touchdowns while completing 70 percent of his passes. Running the ball he has 524 yards gained for nine touchdowns averaging 4.6 yards a tote. Alabama has the speed on defense to deal with Daniels but they have to have a plan to win in the area of angles and positioning.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 6:00 PM CT (7:00 PM ET). Watch this SEC football game on the ESPN Network.
