Im not sold that Bama vs. TAM will be the game that wins the west. I think bama and lsu both have top to bottom better teams then TAM, and will both beat them. I may not be the only one, but I think LSU is a much bigger threat. They will have the most talented secondary in the SEC, a great backfield, talented QB and WR corps. Kwon Alexander could be a big contributor on that team. The only place they will dip is DE, but im sure they have a couple guys that are pretty decent.

I think that Alabama last year was still a better team then TAM, they just had everything go right (not that that takes anything from there win away) but I could not say the same for LSU. I would have much rather rematched TAM then LSU last year.

All that to say I think TAM will be at or below where they were last year while Bama and LSU could be comprable to their 2011 teams.

Aggies and Bama have a big schedule advantage, this is the game that decides the West

Alabama returns a lot of talent and Saban and Co. have a pretty good revenge game record. aTm caught Bama off guard last year but I dont think aTm will be able to pull it off again. And before someone brings up aTm's home field advantage, check Alabama's record in away games.

Nor should you be sold.

Wait for the season to play out.

Everything else is just a way to pass time during the interminable months of summer.

Well duh. If Alabama beats TAM AND LSU is undefeated when they meet AL (and AL is still undefeated) then that will obviously be the game of the year. Why so insecure?

Have you been tea bagged recently?

How about we both beat Bama and make A&M/LSU the game of the year for the West?


Or do you have some Bama fetish?

Its a fair opinion. Bama and LSU have been consistently good, we came out of nowhere. But I don't think you can overstate just how good JFF was at the end of last year. If he maintains that level of play throughout this year we'll be hoisting the crystal ball.

LSU and Bama have deeper, more talented rosters for sure. But anytime you have the most talented guy on the field you have to like your chances.

My guess is we lose 1 between Bama and LSU, I wonder if that will be good enough to get us to Atlanta?

I'm just not sold on LSU's offense. I know they lost a lot on defense but I have little doubt they'll reload there. Unfortunately, I don't think they lost a lot on offense because it might have been best if they did.

A&M's schedule is easier this year so they'll be in the mix every bit as much as LSU. Hard to argue either way.

I'm cool with that.


Hope the Aggies prove you wrong.

This is a rational post. I approve.

Odds of LSU losing to UF or UGA?

Odds of A&M losing to Mizzou or Vandy?
