Why do you need to troll in legit threads? Why not give an assessment of the game? There are tons of other threads you can troll in, like "how many turnovers will it take for Ole Miss to win?"

And your obsession with me continues...

Your secondary is the best we'll see all year and will give us fits. Your running game is thankfully not as potent in years past but will still be a challenge. It will be the first true road test for your freshman QB but he will likely still be pretty serviceable against our weak secondary.

Kelly will have a solid game (4 TDs, 1 int type game ) but we will still come up short due to getting killed in TOP again. I'm thinking 42-31 Alabama.

I'm having a hard time determining how good our running game is. WKU stacked the box and we needed to work on passing anyway. But I've surprised that when we needed to control the tempo with the run, it hasn't been there. Penalties played a big part yesterday.

I didn't see the Wofford game yesterday but I watched the entire FSU game. Ole Miss should have won that game. If you could have kept that defense off the field just a LITTLE more, you would have won. It may feel like the defense is weak, but I'm convinced it the Ole Miss defense we saw in the first half was legit, and they just couldn't get off the field.

Saban has yet to show that he can slow down a potent hurry-up spread offense. They struggled against Clemson and Ole Miss last year and Auburn, Ohio State and Ole Miss the year before that. Maybe this year's Ole Miss offense isn't that good but if they're anywhere as good as they were last year, I've yet to see proof that Bama will be able to shut them down.

I think that's less true than it used to be. Alabama has slowed the hurry-up down, but not shut it down. I'm not sure it's possible to completely shut a potent one down.

Bamas' D is going to annihilate OM. Special Ed Kelly might quit after this one. He is going to be put on his arse for most of the game. FSUs D manhandled that Oline and Bamas' D is far better than FSUs.

Alabama wins this game. Our secondary is just not very good. We're still trying to figure out our running game. We are good and talented but you can't win without a secondary or running game.
