Mizzou is talented enough and plays hard enough to keep it around 52-24.

Depends on the mistakes we make. Play another sloppy game it will be ugly.

The offense will score a few times, Alabama's strength this year is offense not defense.

Alabama is still good on defense. Their non garbage time defensive stats are near the top of the SEC. their offense is so good that they don’t have to go all out much beyond the end of the 1st quarter.

This is it......IF our younger receivers can be physical AND our backend can make a play when they're in position, I think you'd be surprised what the final score will be.

honestly tho, we NEED our run game to be good, just to keep the score manageable. If we can put together a few good long drives, which we're capable of, and limit the TO's, we should be able to keep them under 55 ( )

Im feeling good about this one. I think we actually play a pretty solid game, and really clean up somethings. I say 50-24

I think after two weeks of errors the team tightens up and and plays well. They keep it respectable and it's still a game going into the 4Q. Maybe earn some national praise for how well they played at AL, at night and on their homecoming.

Probably about as bad as Alabama is beating everyone else I’d guess.

Their closest game has been a 22 pt victory over aTm which included a couple of garbage time scores. They are that good

If we play a smart game, keep the clock moving, limit possessions and make them work their way down the field we can keep it relatively respectable

I don’t know if Tua has played in the second half of a game this season.
Against Arkansas he was 10-13 for over 300 yards.

Had a dream we won 41-31 with us leading at halftime by 17 and Tua throwing his first pick of the season.

That means we lose 47-27 covering the spread and on the cusp of Tua taking a 4th quarter snap.

Shell coverage...Sag the safeties and play everything in front. They’ll probably still score but it may take them 4/5 minutes instead of 45 seconds

Feel like the score will be like Georgia last year.

61-21

The spread is 29 and I'm thinking Mizzou loses by 40.

You know it’s bad when we start considering 52-24 a good thing.

I wouldn't be shocked if we keep it within 10 or lose by 50.

Saban has a tendency to pull back unless he really dislikes the opposing coach. You will note he ran the score up against Bert as an example and put the weenie to Ole Miss big time.

That having been said the Alabama defense is good but young. Quick passes, counter runs, and middle screens should move the ball up and down the field for Mizzou. Be careful trying for the deep ball to often because the pass rush can be nasty.

Arkansas hung 31 on them, some of it in garbage time I freely admit, and that was with some key turn overs, including one on the goal line. If y'all's offense plays smart I wouldn't bat at an eye at Missouri hanging 35 on Bama.

The problem is they are likely to drop something in the mid 50s on y'all.

You hit it with your last few words. The score probably depends more on what Saban wants the score to be. If he wants to make a statement, we lose by 60. If he is satisfied with just getting a W and getting out of the game healthy, it's probably a 20 or 30 point game.

In a sense, Mizzou is still kinda his old buddy Pinkels school so I don’t think he’ll set out to totally embarrass us. It’s been about 42-10 both games we’ve played against them. I expect slightly better offensive output.

Maybe 50 - 28 if Lock doesn’t play like arse again.
