I genuinely think we’ll give them hell and put them in a situation they haven’t been in this year. We’ll make them make plays on offense. If the offense plays exceptional, I think we win

General feeling heading into tomorrow?

My feeling for tomorrow is Bama will be Bama! Georgia beats us they are going to know they have been in a game. When you put us behind the 8 ball and you think we’re done, I think we will show the nation why everyone not wants Bama, but they want to be Bama! Roll Tide!

Jobe played well against Auburn. I think he plays well again.

For some reason, I’m totally calm about it. I actually see this going a bit differently than what Vegas and the talking heads see.
Yes, the OL has been extremely shaky. Yeah, Bama has made a lot of dumb mistakes. But watching them get humbled by Auburn only to see them go, “Nah, we aren’t losing again” and take control, that changed my perception of this team.
If they play with heart, they win.

We're in a pretty unique spot and I'm kind of enjoying it. Normally there is almost an existential dread for me when Bama plays in a big game because everyone is picking us to win and I'm afraid we're going to collapse and embarrass ourselves.
Not tomorrow! Tomorrow feels like the 2009 SEC Championship game where we weren't supposed to be on the field with those guys, much less beat them, but we were certainly glad to get our shot. Despite what Georgia claims, Saban is a master at motivation, and I believe of the two teams, our guys will be more hungry tomorrow.
I'm actually excited about it.

I think we keep it close for most of the game. Beyond that, no feeling.

Hope they can find a way but whatever happens, happens. Going 11-1 isn’t at all bad considering how much they lost last year in terms of players and coaches.
11-1 with wins over LSU, Tennessee, and Auburn in a rebuilding year.
If Bryce plays competently, he wins the Heisman Trophy, which is HUGE for Alabama. We'll have Heisman Trophy winners at WR, RB (x2) and QB.
That's a spectacular year, however you slice it.
Everything from here on out is gravy. Roll Tide.

Our D will limit their run game.
Their D will limit our run game.
Our D will pressure Stetson - his performance drops like a rock with pressure.
They will pressure BY, his performance drops a bit when pressured.
We have experience fighting thru a tight game, Them, not so much.
If they get a 14 point lead early, likely too much for us to overcome.
If we roll with them and the game stays close, BY and Will R will pull the game out at the end.
Bama 23 - UGA 22

Won’t be close. Never will there be any doubt who will win. The line of scrimmage on both sides will be dominated by one team.

Alot of wishful thinking and tortured logic in this thread.
First, to equate our situation to 2009 vs Florida is nonsense. We were totally ready to win that game and I fully expected victory.
Second, a four o.t. battle against a avg to poor Auburn team without a QB is not a good sign
This is our worst team since 2007.
This feels like Nebraska 1971. Dread. Overmatched.
It took alot of mismanagement to get to this point. We have the talent, but we have no functioning offensive line.
Georgia by 20+. And afterwards. Either Saban gets his hunger back or the decline continues.
It's like we have gone the whole semester without cracking a book. Now we are craming before the physics final. Won't end well.

This is the first game Bama isn't favored to win in 90 plus games.
Posted on 12/4/21 at 12:18 am to RiverCityTider
That doesn’t mean there’s a decline. We all knew this was a rebuilding year for the offense especially.
Posted on 12/4/21 at 12:22 am to hwnd
No we didn't. We expected a great defense and a adequate offense, with a good offensive line.
Posted on 12/4/21 at 12:27 am to SmokeTide
I don't think we win this one. I love the tide, but this team just isn't there. It's very undisciplined and has gotten worse as the season goes on. We've been lucky this year... Played ole miss before they figured themselves out, played Auburn without Nix, played lsu with a coach headed out the door, Florida was highly overrated.. Aggies played half decent and won.
I'm prepared for a loss, but still proud of what this team has done.

I realize it doesn’t matter, but the notion of any type of decline after what we’ve literally just witnessed less than a year ago seems a bit hasty.
Posted on 12/4/21 at 1:15 am to RiverCityTider
This team isn't anywhere close to 2014, so don't say it's the worst since 2007

First off, I could not be more excited to watch this game as a fan and I couldn’t be more proud of the team as an observer.
I think the team’s flaws are too much. Inconsistent defense and no run game is no way to beat this Georgia team.
I’m excited for the matchup but if Georgia plays well Alabama will not have chance to win the game.

I may be the only TIDE fan that was much more nervous last week leading up to the game than I have been this week. This team still has everything in front of it, but a loss last week negates that. ATL and Mercedes Stadium in particular have been very kind to Alabama. Coach Saban and the Team exorcized some demons last week.
One more thing about this team and this program in general under Coach Saban; while BAMA has the athletes to line up and whip most teams straight up, I firmly believe that player development is just as important to Coach Saban as winning. Anybody can take a bunch of goons and win a random championship. History proves this.
While this team has not been dominant, and at times really ugly; as Coach Saban said, they have THE WILL TO WIN.
How the TEAM got here is irrelevant at this point. The standard is to WIN.
Pluck and Grit and RMFT!
