They played Georgia really well. They've got a good defense. They've won 6 in a row. I think nobody is looking over this game for us.

Makes no difference You Guys beat Auburn.

You Don't have any In-State Rivals Like Alabama-Auburn. This Is For State Bragging Rights for the Next Year. This One Game Seperates Families etc.It's worse the Hatfield-McCoys. It'smore like a Mini World War III. Makes no difference Were 11-0 It Would Make Their SEason To Get Us AGAIN. Just tune in Yur TV You'll See. Better yet Go in Person to feel it...

' You can throw records out the door '

I've said this before, but that's a load of shite. I'm not sure of the exact statistic, but I know the higher ranked team/team with a better record has won more than 80% of the time.

So The Team Who has a better record has an 80 percent chance to win?

It's The Other 20 Percent You better worry about. I've seen Alabama Lose to The Barn before when they had a Better Record and Vice Versa. You can throw away Stats Who's Better and all that junk.

IF Bama comes out and puts them away early and Often And Goes into The 4Th QTR About 25 Plus Points ahead then I'll Breathe Easier.

Bama has too much at stake against These Guys And They Know It This Year.I Wanna See Javy Do His Thing On Kickoff Returns..Julio Score Once Or Twice Etc Etc. Don't Take The Barn Lightly That's What causes Losses..Complacency.

If I was a gump (THANK GOD I am not), I would be worried. Talent wise, Bama is no better than AU. Tubs is plenty capable as a HC in a big game. AU made a huge mistake with Franklin and the spread this year, but the offense and Burns have been improving each of the last 3-4 weeks. The biggest difference between the two teams this year has been experience at qb and injuries. AU is going to be healthier than they have been all year. Last week, Tubs said AU was as healthy as they have been since before Vandy when we our 3-4 best defensive players started getting hurt (Coleman, Marks, Blackmon, and Powers). Now 3/4 of those are healthy again.

I think the home field is the biggest factor. If this game was in AU I think AU wins. I still think AU has a shot and think it will come down to the mental state of the Bama team and if they really believe in the back of their minds that AU is very capable of beating them and this is going to be one of the most challenging games of the year. If they do not truly believe this (regardless of what they say), then it could be a long day for the gumpers.

By the way, the better team usually wins this game. This year is a bit unique however. The better team is usually significantly more talented when one team is highly ranked and the other is not. That is not the case this year.

Uh, what games have you been watching this year? I am not saying we will win, but some of your statements just make no sense. Maybe you have the talent, but looks like ole tubby is not coaching it up good enough.

You just lost your second leading receiver in Trott. Plus being a TE, it's gonna hurt your running game.

Not worried, they respect, but will expect to win and will be ready to prove it.

Before the season started I was trying to convince all you dumbass gumps that Bama had just as much talent as AU. All you idiots wanted to do is tell me you didn't. Even after I sited, posted and averaged recruiting class rankings for the past 4-5 years. Even though we were discussing this season's talent levels, I was told that last year's number one class shouldn't be used in the comparison because they were only freshmen. Typical dumbass gumps.

We would have depth if this were the case. Another year or so and we will be on equal or better footing. We have overacheived this year and I look for us to one more game, this Saturday.

If the game is in AU it's over already those fans will go crazy and Tuberville will out coach Saban who is a nervous wreck under pressure and he is due to lay an egg he's been escaping all year Ole Miss, Kentucky, LSU, but this is the one NC on the line. You know the suck part of this all he will turnaround and beat UF and screw the BCS all up

Your coach is the one laying eggs this year. Brilliant coaching decision going for it on what, 4th and 23 with almost 8 minutes to go.

Auburn hasn't helped themselves by bragging about 6 straight. Alabama's ready to rip Auburn to shreds.
