Because they aren't that good

No. Its schedule is a sleeper though.

Minus A&M, when our D was awful, Bama hasn't been very SportsCenter worthy. Not much hype around the team in that respect. Same can be said for individual performances minus C. Jones in week 1. Definitely flying under the radar for back to back champs.

This can't be a serious question...
How do you not know what the term sleeper refers to when used for athletic purposes right?

I think Delta is dead on , the media assume since Bama gave up 600 plus yards to a “ spread ” team that any spread team with a decent defense can beat Bama.
The problem with this theory is JFF scrambles , there will be no 97 degree heat and Bama's young players will have 13 games under their belt by then.

The media, if " Sleeping" on us, maybe due to a lot of our skill players not playing like they should be and have been.
Fumbles inside the 10, missed Assignments, stupid mistakes, is taking the attention on that, then even mentioning ( a lot of media) what we do even in winning the game.
Saban, is trying out the new guys, many are better then expected, and we are getting the thick of the schedule, it will all jell together from here on out....hopefully..

It doesn't matter how good every championship Bama squad has been in the last 20 ish years - they've always had sluggish or close games.
'92 team only beat an unranked So. Miss by 1 TD (17-10). An unranked La Tech by a TD and two field goals (13-0). They also almost let MS state come back and win the game (30-21). I believe it was a blocked MSU field goal that finally put the game away.
'09 squad almost lost to unranked TN (12-10) and also had to come from behind to beat an unranked Auburn (26-21)
'11 squad lost to LSU in overtime and didn't get to play in the SECCG.
'12 squad lost to TAM.
This year really isn't any different so far. They had a sluggish game against an inferior Co state and overall have had some flashes of vulnerabilities (TAM) mixed with some flashes of greatness.
It's nothing new, really - but I wouldn't say that the media is sleeping on them.
