It's worth noting, only 1 of 55 who took a swing at scores had Bama scoring more than 40. Some yahoo took Bama 45-42.

Practically all had the game within a TD, most by a FG either way.

Kiper's pick of the Dawgs winning 31-17 is my position. That would put me in the minority, seeing as how 6 of 55 have the margin of victory being greater than a TD in either winning scenario.

Look I am a Dawg through and through but I just can't feel optimistic about this game knowing what happened last time.

Saban is just so hard to play against. He knows all of our defensive tricks as he taught Kirby everything.

I hope we run them out of the stadium but my gut says if we win its going to take monumental effort from our team and 4 qrts of the best football we have played all year.

Right, Saban factor is pretty huge, dude will have an answer to everything we do. I do think we can win if we play within ourselves and mistake free football (like Vs Michigan). A lot of times a loss reinvigorates a team and there is something to be said about having you back up against the wall after a loss. It causes everyone to focus just a little bit more, buy in, and key in on the details which are so important.

There's absolutely nothing statistical about the history of this game that should make Dawg fans confident about this game. I'm not promoting mindless cheerleading.

We play the game for a reason, and by about 11:30 tonight, it's all going to be for the history books.

That said, I think this team has what it takes. They have to prove it, however.
