I just hope we keep it close.
I will be exponentially more nervous about that game if Lawson still hasn't suited up by then. Sims is a great QB and right now we just down have the four-man pass rush to disrupt him, and the last thing I want to see is Johnson having to blitz a backer or DB anytime he wants to get pressure; y'all are too talented on offense for that.

This reeks of insecurity. Ya'd think that 3 titles in 4 years would put you above seeking tSECrant's approval


Look at the bright side....we went 4 whole days without having one bama blow me thread. Vegas had the O/U at 3 1/2 days.

I'm pretty sure a dynasty needs more than 2 sec titles in 15 years.

Yet they are only 4-3 in their last 7 games and have lost 3 straight games against ranked opponents

I got my bet in when it was still at 4.5.

Well, seeing as how the parameters used were the last 60 games - I don't think that's super relevant.

Yeah. Its relevant. Youre not a dynasty if youve only won your conf twice since sophomores in highschool were born.

Neat.

You should write an angry e-mail to ESPN and those big dumb executive directors of the Vegas sports books and make sure they know this important information that they surely missed.

What do you call it when a team has lost 15 games in the last 3 years and thinks its a dynasty?

Actually 16.

Multiple dynasties across human history were deposed at one point or another, only to regain power

Athenian tyrants did it all the time, too

I never claimed Auburn was a dynasty. However, Auburn has only lost 16 games since 2010. If you went back to that point, the only reason Alabama would have a better record is because of Chizik's last year in 2012

Was Bama really favored in the 2010 Iron Bowl? I know they were at home, but they were 9-2 and Auburn was 11-0 with Cam Newton on fire.

Bama opened a 3.5 favorite and the lined moved all the way up to 5 on some books.
