Scouting Report. Nov. 6. LSU Tigers. player. Pick Analysis. Tuscaloosa (Ala.). 9. 817

After their bye week, the Crimson Tide will face LSU, who is coming off a down season following their national championship in 2019. LSU will be returning more of their team this season and has some young talent that really started to shine at the end of last season. Alabama trounced LSU in their matchup last season, but the Tigers will be highly motivated to get back to competing for SEC championships.

I think that at this point in the season, Alabama will be firing on all cylinders and be tough to beat. I don’t think that I can place enough trust in LSU to take on the Tide and beat them in Tuscaloosa.

LSU will have a bounce-back season, but fall short of beating Alabama.

Final Score: Alabama 38, LSU 24 (9-0, 6-0)

Alabama will have their last non-conference game against New Mexico State in what should be another blowout win for the Tide. Alabama will be coming off a big win over LSU and will want to rest guys if needed and get out of this game healthy.

Final Score: Alabama 49, New Mexico State 3 (10-0)
