Judgement Day has finally come.
In perhaps one of the biggest college football games in recent history, the No. 1 LSU Tigers are taking on the No. 2 Alabama Crimson Tide under the lights in Tuscaloosa.
Tonight's game has definitely not disappointed as the Tigers are looking to gain the inside track to both an SEC and National Championship.
With an intense finish expected, here are five halftime adjustments LSU should make if they want to come out on top of tonight's potential national title elimination game.
Wrap Up
The Tigers must focus on making the first tackle in the second half. They have already been hurt by a couple of long gains spurred by broken tackles.
Wrapping up and making tackles in the backfield will be huge focus for the remainder of this game.
LSU's "bend don't break" defense will not cut it in the second half.
Fresh Legs
In the second half, LSU needs to continue to rotate their backs and lineman. The Tigers will have a big advantage as the game winds down, with an abundance of fresh legs in both the backfield and the D-Line.
Look for the Tigers to thrive with fresh legs late in the game.
Rueben Randle
The Tigers should try to get WR Rueben Randle more looks in the second half. LSU's QBs should look for Randle on the outside to stretch the field and open up the middle for RB Spencer Ware.
Get Aggressive
LSU needs to get more aggressive with their play calling in the second half. Although the defense will get much of the talk in this game, the Tigers need to take some chances, open up the field, and look for the big play in the second half.
More Lee, Less Jefferson
The Tigers need to make sure they don't lose sight of the QB behind much of their success this year. Although Jarrett Lee has struggled early, LSU must have him take most of the snaps in the second half. Jefferson has been effective, but the Tigers are a better team with Lee on the field.
