re: As the week progresses, do u feel better, worse or the same about the Bama game?

The same. I think I predicted a 38-24 Alabama victory. Maybe 35-20 Alabama win. I'm remaining optimistic that we can upset them if our offense shows up and plays the best game of the season, especially the offensive line. That will include no turnovers. Also, when we get inside the redzone, we need be able to punch the ball in every time. We cannot stall out and settle for field goals to beat Alabama. I hate to say it, but I have zero confidence in the defense. I think their running backs will have a field day with our linebackers and McCarron will have no trouble against our secondary. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that maybe we can force an interception or recover a fumble, but I still think we'll have to score a great number (maybe in the 40s) to beat them.
