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.
Right. Which is why I would like to see us play them early in the season before they have so much film to analyze about our players and coaches tendencies and weaknesses. It would be more of a "going in blind" scenario for Alabama and it might give us an edge. We need every edge we can get. That is how Saban goes in to his games. Get every edge you can.

I'd rather play Bama in our first SEC game of the year.
As it stands we always get them after they have fully acclimated all new players into the system, they get the BYE to prepare for us (we do too, but we seem to use it to overthink and psyche ourselves out), and it puts a damper on the end of the season if/when we lose.
If we lost to Bama early in the season, there is still plenty of time to build up our ranking and confidence before the end of the year. I bet we wouldn't get stinkers against Arkansas and TAMU any more.
