12-0 regular season, wins SECCG.

SECr whines a lot, makes excuses instead of manning up.

We are usually good for at least 11 wins. Bama will win no less than 10 wins and even then all you guys will talk shite just because we didn't win them all. 10 or 11 wins at Bama is a down year while it's a pinnacle season for the rest of you. That's how we roll.

2015 Alabama Football Schedule

Date Opponent
Sept. 5 Wisconsin W
Sept. 12 Middle Tennessee BIG W
Sept. 19 *Ole Miss W
Sept. 26 Louisiana-Monroe W
Oct. 3 @ *Georgia L
Oct. 10 *Arkansas L
Oct. 17 @ *Texas A&M W
Oct. 24 *Tennessee W
Oct. 31 Bye TIE
Nov. 7 *LSU W (toss up, small lean to the home team Bama)
Nov. 14 @ *Mississippi State W
Nov. 21 Charleston Southern W
Nov. 28 @ *Auburn W

I see 10-2 with losses to Georgia (their first true road game in hostile territory with a new QB) and Arkansas the week after, benefiting from a draining game in Athens the week before and the fact that Alabama's QB situation will still be relatively fresh and mentally rattled from the week before. Bielema and his team won't forget what happened last season and they'll come into this game more hyped up than usual. This also assumes Arkansas plays Bama at the same level as last year, which could easily not happen and Arkansas could lose. Bama vs. LSU will largely depend on which QB has settled in more at that point in the season and each teams injuries, but assuming all is normal in that category the advantage goes to Bama at home. At Auburn will present the next biggest challenge, but I don't see Saban letting anything past them at that point in the season. The kick six is STILL too fresh on their minds and they'll use it as a catalyst for a few more years.

I don't think they will lose to Wisconsin. I don't think they will lose at home. I don't think they will lose on the road to either Miss State or A&M. I don't think either has the talent to beat them. So the potential losses are UGA and Auburn. So let's split and say 11-1.

Well, if your defense plays at the same level, yall might have a chance, but if your offense plays at the same level, it will probably get ugly. Your defense benefited greatly from wet weather last year.

Also, the weather should have played right into Arky's strength, but our defense stifled yalls run game.

Basically, it was the perfect storm(pun intended) for Arkansas, and they still lost.

The wet weather benefitted Bama too, the game would've been won by the Hogs if not for a missed FG (attributed to soggy field conditions) and a missed extra point (also field condition related). Yall may have shut down our run game but we completely shut down the most talented WR in the game last season. Neither team's offense could generate much of anything during that game, and it was still a 1 point contest due to 2 missed FGs.

Not really. Our offensive strength was Amari Cooper and Blake Sims, not out run game. The wet weather did not benefit our passing game.

Meh, the special teams disadvantage worked both ways.

It did work both ways and it controlled a lot of aspects of the game. There's no way to know which team would've come out ahead or done things differently without the weather conditions, just that both appeared to be evenly matched in the given conditions.

I know that played a factor in it just like it did for your defense vs. our run game, which depends a lot on the short passing game to open up. BOTH teams were severely hindered by the weather conditions, it works both ways.

They will lose two out of Arkansas, UGA, Auburn, and LSU and end up 10-2, with at least a share of the west title.
