What shocked me was the Alabama defense in that second half. Supposed to be loaded with first round picks, but they could not get any pressure and Florida was just gashing there D with guys running free. Imagine if Florida had a good passing game. Ole Miss is loaded on offense and it could get ugly on the defensive side. Ole Miss D a little better so that will be interesting. Set the U/O at 80

...to be the Terminator cyborg they have been in the past.
Let's all remember after the 3rd game last year people were saying similar things after Ole Miss had 2 RB's go for over 100 yards each and put up a bunch of points on Bama.
Of course we can't remember what people said last month much less last year.

Nobody playing QB at Bama will ever
Duplicate Macs numbers. Same with Burrows at LSU. It is what it is. Can't stay on top forever.

What exactly has Clemson done this year to make everyone think they are any better than Florida?

Most teams that win the natty have 5 losses the following season, right?

Don't fall for it. Bama always has a tighter than expected contest early on. This is the reason for the Ole Miss wins a few years back. Unfortunately for Ole Miss, I think Bama got it out of their system already.
I expect the machine to be running optimally against Ole Miss next week.

Mediocre skill players eh?

They're not as strong offensively as they have been recently. Their QB and overall running game are pretty far behind last year's squad.

Sounds like no one thinks bama will improve, just their opponents….After re-watching the game, I’m not worried. We gave up tons to ole miss last year and improved.
That game (UF), should not have been close, If Young had just run it in instead of throwing to Latu where he stepped on the line was 7 points , then all he did was hit Bolden in the damn hands in the end zone that he dropped. I don’t get the “ the offense isn’t what it was last year” comments.. holy shite, it’s the 3rd game on the road. Offense is fine…

You are 100% correct in your observations; despite the downvotes.
If you've ever been unfortunate enough for these people to be your charge, you know the consequences of having one at your back. A guaranteed sack.

This! They’re young and it shows. May not be a NC year. I think most rational Bammers have been saying that. But the next two years should be crazy good when these young players grow up.

Dude in 2014 we lost to Ole Miss then went to Arkansas and squeaked out a 14-13 win then lost to Ohio State in the playoffs.
In 2015 we lost to Ole Miss again at home, barely beat Tennessee 19-14, needing a strip sack as UT was driving to win, then went to the wire vs Clemson 45-40 in the NC game.
Not to mention the Rocky Block game vs Tenn in 2009 before Saban’s first NC at Bama.
Goal line stand vs Penn State in 1979….
I could go on. This idea that Bama has always steamrolled to natties is bullshite. We’ve had many gut check games on the way to national championships.

No you don’t, Aggies are the greatest #ss kisser to Bama on this board.

They have one game per year like this where they give everyone hope then rip our hearts out. Don’t get your hopes up pal. The tide is going to win every game from here out.

Not a chance in the hell with that sorry defense. To give Bama credit, they did lose a lot of talent and experience last year.

They’re gonna beat LSU by 40. Ole Miss by 10+ again. Arkansas & A&M by 10 and Auburn might keep it within 10 points but still lose. Saban is the goat he ain’t losing.

Nick has said that this version of Bama is a work in progress and it sure appears his take isn't BS.
We're not who they say we are at this point.
