    I feel that this week the LSU RB's will have a big game. This is their chance to make a name for themselfs. Also the pressure is on them to make it a big game. The O line will help to create running paths for them. 200 plus yards rushing.....

    That would be 3 freshman. All three True Freshman with an * next to the Starter Vincent...

    We shall see. USC has a great Defense... And are very well coached. Not an ideal time to toss 3 true freshman into the mix.

    Not sure why, but I feel good about these freshman running backs. Charles Alexander, Harvey Williams, and Dalton Hilliard stepped up and excelled as freshman running backs. It can happen.

    The offensive line has to step it up a notch. Maybe two notches. But that can happen, too.

    i really don't see a break-out game for our RBs....USC's run defense is just too good this year...if anything, i think their pass D is a little susceptible even though they are highly ranked...they've only played one good QB iN Georgia's Green.. maybe Mauck can have a break-out game by hitting some of our talented WRs with deep routes

    I have to go with Red55 on this one, but not so much that I feel that the RB's are going to break out but that the O line will be breaking noses in order to open up holes the size of the Mississippi river.

    We have a better team with better lines. That is what set us apart against UGA and that is why we will beat SC. They wouldn't be able to run and we will.

    LSU Student, as a gamecock fan I completely agree. I don't think LSU will be able to do much on the ground. Kentucky's quarterback Shane Boyd was effective scrambling but I don't think Mauck is quite as good a runner as Boyd. I do feel that for South Carolina to win they will have to intercept Mauck a couple of times. I expect LSU to come out slinging the ball deep.

    well we attempted the deep ball but Mauck wasn't very effective at all....our run game was by far the most impressive it's been probably in the past 2 seasons...Broussard is an animal if he can continue to hang onto the football....Saban's talk with the O-Line obviously lit some fire in their ass....feels great to be a tiger right now

    A+ for Aztiger & his prediction, F for me for being too chicken. So... I'll say this. Auburn is the same team that played poorly in the beginning of the year & showed thay can beat up weak teams. I say that LSU will win by15. LSU will make mistakes, but so will Auburn! Go Tigers!

    Let's Hope that the O-Line is ready to go and we have no
    more injuries.
