You don’t go from getting bullied in the trenches at home to favorites in a few short weeks.

True. Our true freshman Proctor is definitely playing better as well….

A lot of it is recency bias with Milroe. He's played well against shitty defenses for three straight weeks. UGA will be the real litmus test.

It would be fun to put this to the test, no?

Your front 7 bullied us on passing downs...so did USF and Arkansas. Congrats.
Your oline certainly didn't bully our dline, y'all ran for like under 3 ypc. Our oline did better than your oline on run plays. And Sark had a great game plan to neutralize our pass rush with Ewers getting the ball out early and making great passes.
But anyone who knows anything about football can see that teams aren't bullying our pass protection anymore, and our oline is a different animal than it was in September.

And yet, Alabama would be the Vegas favorite if they played next weekend on a neutral field.
Don’t get me wrong, if both teams win out under no circumstances does Alabama deserve to go over Texas. Texas won it on the field and you wouldn’t get many real Bama fans saying otherwise. But you sound desperate and unwilling or unable to accept reality.

Alabama inserted #77 into the starting lineup on the OL in the Arkansas game. Tennessee had 4 sacks in the first half against Alabama. Since then over 7 halves of football Alabama has given up 3 sacks for 20 yards. The OL has absolutely played better the last few weeks.

It won’t matter because y’all aren’t better than OU.

The OL and QB confidence is night and day. D is improved as well.
uTx is squeaking through inferior teams. Bama is walking away in them.
I'd have no issues with UTx over Bama for CFPs. But, don't act like 7 of 10 is a real thing

Georgia did exactly that 7 years ago against Auburn in a shorter amount of time.
Again. I am not saying Alabama would beat texas, but your logic is off.
