How do y’all feel we matchup with bama defensively ?

IMO across the board if we play a similar style that we did vs Auburn we matchup pretty well. Their offensive line is solid but banged up and also vulnerable agaisnt athletic fronts. Princewill, Ross , deuce should win their fair share

At LB, need dottery and keys to play with similar downhill aggressiveness they did vs Auburn. Bama’s run game is nothing special tho they have some talented freshmen in that rb room. However, Russell is dangerous with his legs so being disciplined and not letting him break contain is key.

In the backend, I think we can cover them in man. Ryan Williams will probably be back that should be Dj Pickett’s assignment. Lotzier brooks is a playmaker and has some speed in the slot I wonder if we approach him similar to how we approached Anthony Evans in terms of kicking pj woodland inside to cover him.


Rico Scott has emerged as a go to guy for Russell lately especially since Williams went down. Ja’keem Jackson has played some strong ball at cb3 if we have to kick woodland inside more to offer brooks I think ja’keem can hold his own. Bama has a very underrated TE room capable of making plays and are physical in run supprot. Will need a physical game against the pass and run from our safety room.

Overall, I think bama will make some plays but this defense has the ability to heat up and rattle Russell if baker continues to commit to attacking.
