What do y’all think of Bama-6.5 hosting Texas?

Alabama 38, Texas 21

They don't have Bryce to bail them out this year. 28-14 Texas.

I think they have already regressed over last couple of years, albeit from a high standard to what is still an above average mean comparatively to others.

That said, it is a very good team coming back.

All depends on how the talent gels and the team leadership that steps up around that talent.

I like the 2 coord hires. Simplifying things on defense and getting back to physicality, aggressiveness and accountability that is expected under Steele stands to be a huge move forward.

Not overly concerned about QB. They do not need a world beater. They just need a game manager that plays smart and takes what is given.

Getting a scrimmage game week 1 has more pros than cons in this type of turnover year. I expect the team to be ready and environment to be electric given the game last year in Texas and the 2025 addition of the Longhorns to the SEC.

Sark will have a great game plan, but Bama covers 6.5 over 4 qtrs.

34-24 Bama.

We were +20 on the line last year and we will be +20 this year as well.

Personally I think Bama will regress some this season and that Texas will be improved

I think Bama and Texas will improved over last year, IMO.

I don’t think it will be that close. Bama by 14

Rat poison, Texas is screwed

Bama is going to need more than plus 6.5.

I predict that Milroe starts and that he and McClellan will be very hard to contain. I also think Ewers, Worthy, Sanders, Whittington, and Mitchell will have Bama playing catch-up all night. Texas scores last for the win.
