re: Next week is not going to be a normal SEC road game

I haven’t been able to watch much of UT play this year. What is their weakness?

Secondary is the weakest. Their LB play is inconsistent. Offense is legit but can be inconsistent. We never know which Tenn were getting each week.


But for everyone to fear volunteers.. overstated. Just take care of business and run the ball and we'll be fine.

Game #7 is here and we're finally going to learn what Bama is all about.

Are we for real or is it Memorex?

I believe The Tide will get it done in K-Ville (if #9 plays)

I’m summarize it for you. Your “who have they really played game” isn’t a great indication because it applies to the majority of top 15 teams (like Bama). In addition, it didn’t prevent Bama from almost losing to teams who haven’t played anybody either beforehand.

Protect ball and we likely score. The game should've been a blowout and it wasn'

I mean Bama has had a number of games the last few seasons that they should’ve won by more but didn’t. Not that simple. Mistakes could easily happen in this game again and Tennessee is a better team than A&M.

You didn't really make a good point, but okay carry on.

Were LSU, AU, or UF last year good teams when Bama barely beat them? Did A&M and Texas have good resumes this year?

You seem to think it matters if a team is really good or not for Bama to possibly lose to them even though recent history has shown it doesn’t matter

You're not wrong, there is clearly a possibility of a loss. But I mean, Tennessee is a good team. It'll probably be a battle. That's playing in the SEC for you. I like seeing us play good highly ranked teams. I'm excited. I have faith in our dudes to go out there and compete at a high level. The atmosphere will be insane next weekend. This is kind of shite a player like Will Anderson loves.

This chicken little stuff "wahhh we could lose a game, we'll get blown out if Milroe starts I'm so scared wahhh" shite is lame though.

If 9 had never gotten hurt we would have won the last 2 in absolute beat downs. He did and we didn’t so we have a lot of fans scared to death we will get worked in Knoxville. We may but I think we are underestimating Bama. Fans dwell on their teams faults and are blind to issues of their opponents imo.

If Bryce plays I have absolute confidence we'll slice them up on offense. The OL has come into their own in the run game and their secondary is Arkansas level bad.

If he can't play then.........the defense will have to be herculean and the offense is going to have to do something different than whatever last night was. I dunno how to be more positive/less fatalistic than that. If Sark or Lane were the OC I'd feel good about finding a plan to help Jalen gain confidence and play to his positives. But they aren't, BoB is, and I saw what BoB cooked up last night. It was pathetic and it won't work on Saturday.

Already have it and some matches packed for Knoxville!

So, If Young is back and he's almost 100 percent, He'll be throwing over 300 yards against Tennessee Defense combined with running game. We should have a balanced game of passing/running. WE should be able to move on them, especially on Third downs.

This is perfect game for Alabama to display deep ball against Tennessee and using their RBs in passing game.

I don't think Tennessee can sustain long drive back to back because of Braswell/Turner/Anderson with Oatis up in middle.

Now, If Milroe starts again, I expect him to have a better game because We'll use RBs to help him out, lot of quick passes and similar RPO game. Just cut his decision making down to 5 seconds or less.. and we'll address his issues in offseason. But I'm not too worried about Tennessee... I don't give a frick about our history and etc. Tennessee hasn't really played anyone to this date.. and Alabama played Texas, Arkansas and TAMU. We'll be okay.
