Clear skies and a 58-degree temperature awaited Alabama football on Monday, as the Crimson Tide was outdoors to start this week of work toward LSU. Nick Saban is preparing his team for a showdown with the Tigers on Saturday at Bryant-Denny Stadium, as Ed Orgeron brings in the No. 1-ranked Bayou Bengals into Tuscaloosa, Ala.
While the trash talk has been on the side of the Tigers, it has been all focus for Alabama from the bye week to now. Saban praised LSU’s offense and Joe Burrow during his presser and the players are really looking forward to the challenge.
