Good point...and true. Saban has usually done a good job of having his team focus on the next team, series of downs, next play, etc., but it's impossible to bring the same degree of enthusiasm to each game as all your opponents do. I guess you've got to try to offset it with your talent advantage.

I think is easier to up for this game because it's the first one they have to do it for this season. If this game fell between LSU and A&M, I would be a whole lot more nervous for it.

I will give Alabama the edge on talent, the edge on coaching, but the deciding factor will be who wants it more. The USA beat the Brits because we were fighting for freedom. Ole Miss is doing the same with home field advantage. The atmosphere will be ruckus.
