This is aggressively ignorant. We have tons of talent and experience in the trenches on both sides of the ball.

Not saying we beat Bama this year, but we went toe-to-toe with them last season and return almost everyone.

Recent history would indicate that the odds are very low.

Indeed. Doubtful it happens this year. I'd say 4-1 against it.

IF Bama were to lose 2 games and be eliminated early from a chance to go to Atlanta, I could see a 3rd loss take place late in the season.

But I'm not sure a second loss will happen.

ut will not be coming off a bye and playing a Bama team that is playing their 4th straight conference game and 8th straight over all game, and a Bama team that has just buried Altee Tenpenny. As they did in 2015. Instead it will be ut that will be playing their 4th consecutive conference game at the end of what is, IMO, the toughest 4 game stretch that ut has been subjected to since the SEC took over the scheduling in 1992.

Very low. And with all of the hype Tennessee is getting, I feel like the Vols are gonna fall on their faces. One wrong turn will likely unravel them.

Like lsu after the bama game last year.

usc - loss. usc has the best WR 1-2 punch in hte country in juju and adoree and adoree is a shut down corner as well on defense. the defense won't be ready the first game for this type of talent. usc's pass defense will be good enough to make them one dimensional
you are dumb as hell if you think bama is losing to usc, lane kiffin going against his former dc and the school that fired him after he coached them through sanctions. I stopped reading your post here because obviously you are retarded

I've been on the record on this board calling the Alabama Arkansas game to go down as a loss for Bama in Fayetteville. That much is certain, and it will, in fact, happen. So there is one loss.

This game, however, the USC game, is going to be a great game. I can't wait to watch it. I think there is a good chance Alabama loses this one as well.

I don't give a fu(k about Lane Kiffin. This first game is a problem for Alabama because you guys will be facing a stout offense and are going in with a new defensive coordinator. And I don't care that he "knows the system." It doesn't make much difference. It's still the D coordinator's job to put guys into position to make plays. He still has to call the right plays. And there is ALWAYS an adjustment period.

Now I think that Alabama will field a great defense this year, but I would be shocked if USC doesn't score a LOT of points against Bama (by Bama standards) in game one.

The biggest question will be whether or not the Bama offense can keep up. You guys had better hope that Frosh QB is ace. Alabama could EASILY lose this first game...and the Arkansas game.

If Alabama gets to three loses this year, the third loss will be to Texas A&M or Ole Miss.

I think there is a greater chance than usual that they lose 3 games but it probably won't happen. They'll be right in the thick of competing for the west, SEC, and CFB Playoffs

Hyperbole isn't attractive on you. There are more all-sec players there than on your team. Makes me think some outside of Bama knows them

Must be talking about non football fans. Those guys were televised 15 times last year, most in prime time.


List the ones you've never heard of to further exhibit your ignorance.

damn bama fans have little dick syndrome lol

no one is saying alabama sucks

but dude it's july and you don't have a fricking clue who your QB is, you got 2 unknowns at RB, your left tackle just beat a gun / drugs rap, you are replacing the first round center, you're replacing a manchild in a'shawn robinson and marlon Humphrey really isn't all that fricking great.


man this is the SEC. Everyone is good lol. youth is not good. inexperience is not good. you're gonna lose 3 games. it's not the end of the world. you'll win another natty in 2017.

ut has no real depth on either line and the starters on the o line just aren't that good.
