Any topic talking about that should be disregarded.

I said it in an earlier post, but y'all should know it better than anyone. It's Saban's offense with a touch of Jim McElwain.

We are going to attempt to run the football and take a few shots downfield. We aren't that explosive. Julio can make plays. Coffee has shown the ability to go 70 in one play. Upchurch may be playing better than any of the RB's. WE don't really have another big threat (cue Reuben Randle). That being said I just think we'd be very lucky to get 30 points Saturday.

In a perfect world we'd like to have 2 or 3 drives of 12-15 plays that take the air out of the stadium and we capitalize on with TOUCHDOWNS not field goals.

Something tells me we aren't going to have a perfect world Saturday though. I think it's going to be very, very close.

Did you get a chance to read the article about the young boy who was killed in a fire? Roy upchurch was his favorite Bama player.

You guys are on a serious roll right now (no pun intended ).......I say that you beat us by 14 points......I hope not, but realistically, that sounds about right.

Bama put 35 on Arky St. Pretty sure LSU's D is somewhat close to their D. Probably a little better. Bama hasn't put up tons of points this year. UGA has a pretty poor D.

I think this game will be won by between 14 to 21 points. I'm just not sure which way it will go. I figured whoever is taken out of the game first.

To get to fifty points, they relied on LSU's QB, not Stafford.

The entire second half was in garbage time IMO. Bama had the game won at the half. Sorry, not buying it.

Take away the two pick sixes and you have 38. Who else have they scored 38 points on this year?
Georgia Southern and Central Michigan. Wow...dominant.

Bama/UGA was a two score game at the half? I thought it was 31-0 at the half. At UGA no less.
