but I just can't make myself. A&M looked better than Clemson, but Clemson is very beatable. We're making progress, but we're just not nearly good enough to beat what looks to be the best Alabama team in a long time.

I hope that after the game I feel shame for failing to have confidence in my Ags, but I think we're going to be soundly beaten. We won't be run out of the stadium in the first half the way that Ole Miss was, but we'll be soundly beaten nonetheless.

Offense just needs to block, execute, take care of the basics, don't kill yourself with penalties. Don't kill yourself with turnovers.

Defense needs to get off blocks, play disciplined, and most of all play physical with no fear.

Don't give up big plays on special teams.

You have the talent to make a game of it.

Does Jimbo have the culture turned around yet? It would be a miracle if he did. That usually takes a year.

But this should be a good game for AnM. This could be the game AnM needs, especially in a loss.

Just have to enjoy the intangibles this weekend.

As Coach Fisher said in today’s presser, “We are just trying to get better today. It doesn't matter who you play and not how you play. It's about us and taking care of ourselves. We want to take the stand and meet our own expectations.”

Can’t expect the guy to come in and overhaul the entire program in a few months.

I think we’ll give ‘em more of a game than folks are predicting, but we’ll have our hands full.

Maybe. But what if we're not?

Will you hide your fear by saying, "OMG aggy is celebrating that they gave Alabama a good game even though they lost what losers lol"

Just remember (and I hope Jimbo knows this) - Saban will find your team's weakness and exploit the hell out of it.

Weak - We've been hearing how Jimbo is the savior all off-season. Then we had to hear about how you should have beaten Clemson. Time to put your money where you mouth is.

Thats like betting your bros you can smash the finest girl in the bar, but saying its okay if you end up just yankin your chain by yourself at the end of the night.

Have some fricking pride and go lay it all on the line.

Just remember that Ole Miss was mauling teams 77-0 the first two or three weeks of the season in 2016 (iirc).

Bama has looked unbeatable, but so do a lot of teams against much weaker competition.

Everyone has days when they just don't play their best.

Not saying anyone will beat Bama, but stranger things have happened in football.

Serious question... Why do people feel the need to start threads saying that they don't think they are going to win?

Just have blind optimism. What do you have to lose?




You sound like this bitch
schwartzy thinks Auburn wins big (20+ points)
