If we can't count Auburn as top ten win, then Bama can't count Clemson. Ga. is quality win...that is all. Still, a very good team though...but beatable.

I'm not saying we don't count it.

Maybe I'm reading too much into the question. If he wants to talk about the strengths of each team...that's fine. Ole Miss has shown that they can play pretty well on both sides of the ball. Bama has shown it also. Yes, both are inconsisent, but not nearly as inconsistent as LSU has been.

To keep saying Bama is overrated is silly. Are they beatable? Sure. So is everyone else. Texas, by far, has the best resume, but Bama's resume is as close as they come. So...no, they are not overrated IMO.

Clemson, UGA, KY, and Ole Miss are all quality wins. Sorry to disagree. I'm no bama lover, but they're getting the job done. Did they look great in the UK game...not really. Did you watch LSU play Tulane last year? How 'bout UK? We were the national champions.

Aug. 30, 2008 at Clemson W 34-10
Sept. 6, 2008 Tulane W 20-6
Sept. 13, 2008 W. Kentucky W 41-7
Sept. 20, 2008 at Arkansas (Ray/Com) W 49-14
Sept. 27, 2008 at Georgia (ESPN) W 41-30
Oct. 4 2008 Kentucky (CBS) W 17-14
Oct. 18, 2008 Ole Miss (CBS) W 24-20

#2 in Country...mmmm...maybe. 7-0 is 7-0 can't argue with that. They could win it all, they could lose 2 or 3 (counting bowl game). We'll see. At this point in the year, many a team in the past has been "anointed" as great only to fall. Good team that is beatable.

Tenn is a "trap" game for Bama. Vols having lousy season. No one picking them to win. Emotional letdown game for the Tide is very possible....but yet, they are still Tenn and very capable of pulling off the upset. Bama should beware.
