I keep hearing this is a good matchup for Alabama. It’s really not.
Bama has the D to maybe hold around 25-30. As always it is about Bama’s crap offense - Indiana is much better defensively than you think - top 5 nationally (look how they handled Oregon and Ohio State).

The national media can hype up Indiana all they want but at the end of the day we are the more talented team by far. Our 4 and 5 star athletes will make plays their 3 stars can’t and we will win comfortably.

They played Oregon and Ohio State already and won. That logic kind of falls apart.

I don't know that they score more than 20 on us. All WE need is one more point than them. We've got this!!!

My concern is defensive Holding and PI calls because Indiana is the media darling and Mendoza is gonna get the benefit of the doubt on a few key plays

Well shite, I guess that explains why they lost to Oregon and Ohio State this year.

The luck runs out eventually for these types of teams. See TCU, who beat Michigan, OU and Texas. I think Bama wins 28-10 with some game changing plays from Bernard and Horton.

I don't think Indiana has won by luck. They are hard to score on and their QB plays well in the clutch.
A team that could get Indiana out of their comfort zone is what is required and I'm not sure we really have that style or roster.
This is a game between two rosters that want to shorten the ball game to minimize the number of times you get to take a crack at their defense mixing up coverages.
We're essentially going to be playing right into their hands, so if we aren't hyper efficient on offense then we're going to be in a butthole-clencher. If we are inefficient on offense, we'll lose the game.

Couldn’t agree more. They “play to a standard.” Fun to watch if you’re not on the receiving end.

I’m very confident about this game even though I do think Indiana is a quality team, they’re not just lucky they’re good. But when you get to the second round of the playoffs you’re supposed to be good.

Chizik is a moron.

Indiana is a team that makes you pay for your mistakes. Ty has to play high level football and some of the young pass rushers need to get after it

I’m guessing reading comprehension isn’t your strong suit. I never said Indiana isn’t a good team, they are. I’m saying I’m surprised how many of these “experts” (sarcasm) are acting like Indiana is unbeatable, because they’re not.

Notre Dame was not favored in 2012, but they were ranked number 1. The should have lost 3 or 4 games that year. They literally stole two games in South Bend. They were winning with smoke and mirrors and refs. The polls ignored this. Hell during the poll era they would have been national champs.
