Even the worst NFL team would pick the score against Bama.

Okay, he just mentioned it again (on the encore presentation of the show on DirecTV) and apparently the oddsmaker said KC and Jags would be -24 and Browns would be -28 vs The University.

Just stop. UA would be destroyed physically and mentally by the PROFESSIONALS. The delusion in this thread is psych. ward worthy. 52 pro's vs. College with 4 pro worthy players. UA fricked.

let me put it this way. if the Chiefs or Jags went to Ole Miss and said "Hey..we like you guys. we're going to sit out next year and y'all can use our entire roster and coaches."

Ole Miss would win the NC, every game would be a blowout, and most of their starters would barely have to play.

This thread should be embarrassing for Bama fans to even post in.

Do you have a list of those players? I looked at the 2011 and 2012 drafts and didn't count that many first round picks.

This logic is also flawed because a kid who was a freshman on the 2010 team that may have turned out to be a great player and possibly a first round pick was not playing like a first rounder his freshman year.

I don't even think I could enjoy watching a pro team play a college team. It would be like throwing a pomeranian into a ring with a Michael Vick-trained pitbull.


You would definitely see AJ McCarron's blood on the field at some point.

Me - to bet on a football game

banker - What?! No. sorry. there's no way in hell.

Me - but its the KC Chiefs against bama

banker - WTF? seriously? here...take 2

I was including future drafts. Milliner, Mosley, Warmack, Barrett Jones all started for the '10 team for example.

True, and I didn't mean to imply otherwise. But the fact remains that Bama does have a lot of NFL talent including future 1st rounders. Some of the Chiefs 1st round picks sit on the bench and don't contribute like 1st rounders either.

I agree, and undoubtedly some of those bama first rounders will be on the bench not producing like a first rounder in a few years. Hell, one of them has been a pretty big bust so far.

Nobody on the jags o line is worth a lick besides Monroe, the d line gets less penetration than a man with baby dick... They match up so poorly at the line of scrimmage. No mojo, gabbert is as good as whomever mizzou has at qb now. They do have a solid kicker and posluszny is pretty damn good, not many others could start for a less shitty nfl team. I don't see them covering at all

And most people would say a team of 2 and 3 stars wouldn't do shite against a team of 4 and 5 stars, and I agree that they wouldn't be able to over the course of a 12 or 16 game season.

While Alabama is very talented, I readily admit that they are not as talented as any NFL team. But there are ways of mitigating talent gaps.

This thread will prove who the most delusional gumps are! Sarc is one of them. I have to look back thru to see the others. It is just plain ignorance. There would be so many injuries it would be unreal. Can you imagine Bama OLINE against an NFL defense? McCarron would quit after a few series

Jared Allen said a college team wouldn't do very well against any NFL team, but he got his arse kicked by LSU480's lanky arse, so what does that pussy know....
