Our secondary on Saturday vs A&M...

Will have a field day. I called it last year against Georgia and A&M. I just think Knight's erratic throwing will let Jackson and Fitzpatrick bring some back to the house this year.
Any updates on A&Ms injured players?
And do you guys think we try to throw vertically on them, or is pass protection not good enough?

If i were calling plays i would dial up some rb and te screens to take advantage of the aggressive DEs. Have them clip the de and then go. Would be good for 5 yards every time, and when they adjust, hit them deep from the same look

All of our key players should be good to go although I don't think Myles is anywhere close to 100%, probably closer to 80.

Depends on if Bad Knight or Good Knight shows up
Arkansas' whole initial strategy was to force him to dish from the pocket and they paid the price. SC did it and he was pedestrian.
If you're an Aggie, you just want him not to force throws and be patient in the zone read game (he's extremely deceptive with the handoffs). If you're Bama, you're trying to bait him into pressing.

I sure hope so. The only way we lose is if Knight has another unprecedented passing display. Other than Heisman caliber QBs, that's been our downfall in many of the handful of losses under Saban - above-average QBs having otherworldly performances in the passing game (Stephen Garcia, Bo Wallace, Trevor Knight, Chad Kelly).

Not only has Knight not been all that great, he's played with nearly perfect protection. That'll change

I really like our secondary. They've had some rough moments, but the thing to remember is three of them (Hump, Fitz, Harrison) are second year players. Yes, Marlon is a RS Sophomore, but he's only in his second year of playing and he's looking like a 1st round CB. Harrison wasn't even a full time starter last year, just played a lot in Money.
Still, the talent and athleticism is off the charts. I saw some people criticizing Humphrey a few games ago, and it was fair to a degree, but he's having a stellar season.

I'm much less optimistic. I still remember Trevor Knight owning our secondary in the Sugar Bowl.
I'll admit that I'm very worried about this game; especially since everyone seems to think we're invincible now

I just can't see Knight beating us with his arm, and that is what he will have to do if they want to win.
and the way Dobbs, Kamara, and their no-name WRs were running through their defense like Swiss cheese, I don't see how they will stop our offense from scoring buku points.

They have the best receiving corps we are going to face this season and it's not even close. Our DBs are gonna need to be on point.

Don't undersell A&M's offense. Knight can make plays with his legs and they have a well-balanced attack.

Bama still has its WTF game left to play for the season. I admit that I thought it was going to be around Arkansas, then Tennessee, but I am afraid it's gonna get here sometime.

Sounds like Cam Rob this year. He's been barely above pedestrian, to me, a lot this year.

I agree, also it comes after CNS compliments his team. After the TN game he said he was proud of them.
Worried about aTm D line vs our O line

This... Along with their receiving corps and our boys patting themselves on the back all week. Wish I was as confident as the rest of our fan base and media.

ATM is very concerning. Talent on both sides of the ball and a QB we know can beat Bama.

This is nonsense, he's been hurried quite a bit. But he's extremely accurate when scrambling and his deep ball is very respectable.

What are these reports of Chavis predicting A&M will win the National Championship? Anyone read that? He also said that if They play mistake free defense he likes their odds against us. Anyone care to expound on it.

I notice against Tenn. they were finally turning around looking for the ball.
