DR just present a little different situation for the opening game. I do not think he can carry the ball effectively for 4 quarters against Bama defense but I can see a scenario where he gives them some problems.


He's no better than the other mobile quarterbacks we've run up against the past few years. Most of the players on this Alabama defense played against Cam Newton. Denard Robinson is no Cam Newton.

I know we all have SEC bias, but this line has Vegas trap written all over it. I feel like they're going to rake in the money on people going Bama.

Michigan is a fine team, but you are right. They just don't have the personnel to deal with what Saban has been stocking up for the past half decade.

Ill take Bama all day on that line, young secondary or not it wont matter, DR throws too much shite up for grabs and you can't do that against Bama.

Spot me 34 points and I'll take Meat Chicken. Mr Robinson has no neck and qbs should have necks. Only rbs/lbs/ol/dl have no necks.

Too bad Hightower & Upshaw cant be there to properly greet him and show him what a SEC defense looks like...but Nico Johnson and CJ will have to do.

Vegas makes money on the vig. They're professionals and don't take positions on games if it is at all possible. There will be enough money on this game that they won't take exposure on either side. No matter who wins, Vegas wins.

Exactly. It really is amazing how so few people know this. Bama -12 is the play here.

Eh, I knew their generally strategy was to make it so even money is on both teams, but I swear I hear of people saying Vegas is setting a trap every now and then. I don't really gamble so I don't know much, but I thought it happened occasionally

Bama, over the last 3 or 4 years has done VERY well covering the spread. I'd give the 12 and take the Tide.

No one will be watching this game by the time the 4th quarter starts.
