This was the takeaway from the post that I hope our team has been hearing all week long. So far we've played no one. Where we are in the polls matters very little. Public opinion of the team for this season and going forward however is in their hands. Continue to be the team that crumbles under pressure or redefine your identity.

It does look like we've got the talent on this roster to go toe to toe with anyone. Now is the time to practice perfect so we can execute on gameday. Time to do what we do best and run it down their throats and when the time comes, Lambert will need to step up and make pressure throws. Keep it in 3rd and manageable for the good guys and I like our chances on O.

From the defensive side of the ball, just seems like a matter of playing disciplined and hard on the line. Prevent Bama from running wild and then smart play from the DBs could lead to some turnovers.

Cannot wait.
