I think one of many reasons why our offense struggles against Bama compared to other teams is that they have the bye before us. Giving Saban 2 weeks to gameplan against our offense is a HUGE disadvantage for us. I think it would benefit and help our chances much more against Bama if neither team had a bye before.

Agreed. Saban is a master of preparation. It's his biggest strength as a coach (aside from recruiting). Giving him 2 weeks to prepare for such a simplistic, predictable offense just isn't even fair. That's why it always seems like there's 3 defenders waiting for whomever is carrying the ball.

Now, if we were to do something innovative, like, I don't know, use that 2 weeks to install different plays and looks that he hasn't seen yet, we might be able to keep it competitive. But it's always the exact same shite with the exact same level of impotence that we ran the entire season leading up to the game. The only way to beat him is to catch him off guard.
