No. 3 Alabama remained a 9-point favorite over No. 9 LSU for Saturday's game at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

The Tigers are 7-1, coming off a 42-0 victory over Tulane.

Coach Les Miles said he still believes in his runners and offensive line, but noted that they must improve to give the Tigers some balance against the Crimson Tide.

The Tigers are averaging 141.5 yards rushing per game.

Alabama is 8-0 on the season. The Crimson Tide last played Oct. 24 and squeaked by upset-minded Tennessee 12-10.

Kickoff for the Tigers and the Tide is set for 2:30 pm.
