re: Bama prediction thread

Our MO is playing up/down to our competition and keeping it close no matter what, and I see no difference here. I think we keep it within 10, earn a little more respect and confidence, but still don't come away with a W.

EVERYTHING would have to go right for us to win, i.e. near-zero penalties, no turnovers with a few Bama turnovers, no passes intended for 12 ft. tall receivers in the endzone, no leaving receivers in the backfield wide open, and most importantly we CAN NOT have clock-eating drives that don't end in points. We'll most likely have to come out slinging the ball around the yard to open up the run at all, which their DBs aren't the greatest and BA is perfectly capable of.

I think we'll keep Henry under 100 on the ground no matter what, but we'll have to limit it below that as much as possible and force Coker into making some panic throws. Hopefully both our lines perform like they did against TN, which is probably a long shot considering the TN o-line is notoriously one of the weakest in the SEC, if not THE weakest. On top of all that, we will have to score in the 4th quarter. We all saw how they came charging back against OM and eliminated the deficit, and I highly doubt there's any instance in which we'd have that kind of lead.

27-17 Bama
