Worst thing that happened for our chances is that Sunseri went down. See last year where Mett basically just found him and threw at him all game.

Juice and ODB vs their DB's and our O-line vs their d-line. If you remember Hill had 100 yards against them last year, and that was with a weak O-line.

We match up well enough offensively to beat them most years. Their offense against our defense is another story. Their balance will be very difficult to deal with especially their backs out of the backfield. We will need a few turnovers to get the defense off the field. I do expect for us to step our game up and play well. We should be within striking distance into the 4th quarter similar to last year. We are built to compete against the Bama type teams more so than Ole Miss and Auburn style offenses and I think that comes into play here. Also Saban isn't afraid of playing conservative on 3rd down and running and punting. This should help shorten the game. The key is keeping their offense off the field.

OM defense is no match for our offense. Sound familiar? You people that think Bama can't defend our offense are funny.



Mett got trigger happy against Ole Miss, we can change that, and we can finally be rested. Being rested and healthy will do a world of difference to get this team ready.

Landry at full strength and Beckham are unstoppable, Mett just needs to get his head out of his arse. Hill has rushed for over 100 yards against Bama before and will do it again.

I'll leave the defense and all that entails, up to the coaches. Not touching that one.

We have sufficient evidence by his grammar, pronunciation, and time management that Les Miles is intellectually superior to Nick Saban.

Cam should be working with Mett all week on hitting the TEs over the middle. It's been open in multiple games, and you know Bama is not going to let beckham and Landry beat them.

We might have an advantage with our receivers vs their DB's, but will our coaching be able to take advantage or will they be bull headed and do things just for the sake of doing them?

My biggest fear is that we might be in a position to win a close game, but more likely is we will be on the very bad end of a real arse whoopin. Because of our recruiting battles, don't think for a second that Saban won't hang 60 points on us to make a statement to recruits.

Our boys better pull their straps up tight because it is going to be a real battle.

Yep. I would want Hill to get 25 carries. We must be able to run against them and control the clock. We want our defense on the field as little as possible.

We are playing them in their stadium with Bama thinking this will be an easy win. We have sent much worse teams to play much better Bama teams and still have come out with a win.

Depends what offense shows up. I tend to think we are going to be conservative and run Hill a lot. We lit them up in TS last year once we opened up the passing game.



This

When we opened up the offense more earlier in the year it put pressure on our opponents to score. UGA was able to do it though.... not sure Bama can.

We don't have the defense this year to play conservative field position and all. If we do, we lose for sure.
