I'm still sticking with Alabama winning 38-24.

I think it's difficult to stay as flawless as Alabama was against Vandy.

Mississippi has had two weeks off. And they still have an offense that's tough to defend. They'll get their yards and some scores.

Alabama should be able to maul them with an elite OL and running game. Open up the passing game a little. Pull away in the second half.

Bama just hung 59 on a far superior defense. Is the 38 a reflection of OM actually being able to get first downs and keep Bama off the field, or is Bama going to pump the brakes after making a statement last week?

I just don't think Alabama has hit their stride yet.

Alabama damn near perfect against Vanderbilt. It can only come down from there. Alabama is still working out kinks on defense too. But the offense will grind Mississippi up though.

Our only hope is to play a perfect game and hope Bama didn't prepare at all. Even if this happens we will probably still lose.

It's a late game at home against Ole Miss. Bama wins but on on a sluggish performance. Saban goes crazy in presser. Rinse. Repeat.

We will gash them on the ground and it won't be close...42 14. Don't think Ole Miss won't have their attention....they will.

My thoughts too. We've struggled in late games. Add in their bye week and Alabama coming off a great performance...

With all due respect, ask yourself "Is this really a pertinent question to pose,or is the answer obvious?"

I'm tired of FBI talk.

I'd rather see some discussions on the games this weekend. Particularly the one involving Alabama.

One problem Capstone, how is it hard to defend a offense that only runs 28 plays? Yes, just 28 plays. They may have had time in past two weeks to add a play to it to make 29

I'm with you. I took the +28 points and actually feel good about the bet. That's just too many points on a pass happy offense.

Is AJ Brown playing?

Ridiculously weird how the offense just stopped when he went out

I think it'll be interesting for a minute. Ole Miss should sell out to stop the run and play man in the back end. Ole Miss' CB have been solid so far. The safety play is pretty bad though so there will inevitably be a few busts.

Bama 49 - 21. Vegas is good.

That's the scariest part of this game, imo. Those bastards always know somehow

38-24? Alabama could literally run every down and probably win by 21. I mean not throw a single pass. Ole Miss' run defense is that bad.
