I just figured they are being favored for having a schedule w/ only a few teams on it who can take them out, that and they still believe Saban's presence will make a difference. Personally, I'm glad they have it easy, cause when they get around to showdowns w/ certain top tier teams, they're soft from their cupcake schedule. Let em' eat cake before stepping into LSU's stadium for an arse kicking. As far as the IB goes, Saban's never defeated a solid AU team, and the last time I remember bama beating an AU team who's ranked w/in top 10 was 1994.
Personally. I feel more confident in my team when they've been through hell and back, battle scars and all, fighting and hungry to improve as the season progresses vs playing cream puffs then playing to 'defend' this elite status that the sports writers bestowe upon in the preseason polls, etc.
Just sayin.

That's a pile of drivel. You actually think a team that's 79-15 with three national titles under Saban hasn't been tested and has a annual cake walk?

Weird definition of "solid". By your logic, Auburn is, more often than not, weak.
