re: Who here thinks Aggie will beat Alabama?

If Bama turns it over and aggie plays perfect, They can win. If that doesn't happen, They have no shot.

Bamas only shot is playing a perfect game and aggy turning it over.

aTm depends on the run this year to setup everything else. I think it has the potential to be a GREAT game, but Bama isn't going to get sliced up if aTm can't run.

Bama is absolutely beatable, but I think the LSU game and Iron Bowl are where that may most likely happen.

I think Bama covers this weekend

I hope A&M wins. But they have such a weak defense, ranked 98 in total defense, I just don't see it happening. But I will pull hard for A&M and if the score gets out of hand I will change the channel.

Nah.

It may be possible, but it feels like fools gold.

It is difficult for a team to stay at this high level for an entire season, especially with a team made of 18-22 year old young men. Sooner or later they will have an "off" week. If the Alabama "off" week happens against a quality opponent, then Alabama can be beaten. All teams left on the Bama schedule are hoping the "off" week is when their turn shows up on that schedule.

Absolutely we can. Timing and matchups are everything. But I'd say we had an off weak against Kentucky. We started whipping Arkansas, and they let up, which Saban raised hell about. I think we played our first complete game against 10essee. We've played at a high level, but our floor is pretty high.


We play some solid teams, but I like the circumstances. We're healthy and our o line is finally gelling. After the first couple of weeks, that were my major concerns at this point in the season. Our players aren't thinking about the spread. Saban has them laser focused on playing an undefeated #6 program. But I just think the Aggies play too much into our strengths.

We have a bye before LSU, which will help. Auburn is after a cupcake. As a fan, is easy to start feeling overly confident. But we also don't have Saban screaming at us on a daily basis. If they just keep practicing and studying like they have been all season, I think we can beat anyone, anywhere.

You've heard the proverbial "complete game" thrown out by everyone. It's a real thing -- we haven't come close to playing four quarters of football to our potential. We've had flashes of it in nearly every P5 game we've played:

1st Q from Tennessee game
2nd Q from Auburn game
3rd Q from UCLA game
4th Q from Arkansas game

We've blown games open early, and blown them out late. We just haven't done both (against a real opponent, anyway).

Win the turnover battle, don't get too outplayed on special teams, and a win isn't that too far-fetched. This is the most complete team we've had since we came into the league.

I dont.
