Bama is somewhere between 2 and 3, IMO.


While I don't think we're a Juggernaut, I definitely don't think there is a team that is clearly better than us, much less two teams...

I think Bama could definitely finish unbeaten. Auburn and Bama seem like the most likely upsets, and I'm pretty confident you beat both of them.

Bama is good, but I'd take last years team.

There's a difference in being negative and having a realistic opinion on our football team.

And for that matter, I believe we are in trouble this weekend and honestly don't think USCe is that good.


It's realistic to believe that the #1 team in the country, that has beaten the #7, #10, and whatever rank PSU was, is gonna lose to a team you think is "not good"?

I didn't say it well. Wasn't saying there are 2 better teams. I was saying I think Bama is somewhere between 2 and 3 on the continuum I posted. That is, between very good and great. I'm not sold on the kicking game 100% and will judge the secondary next week.

no. if u don't think Bama is one, as long as you don't think there is currently a "juggernaut" roaming the gridiron then i'm ok with it!

Auburn's good but I'm not sure I see all the cause for concern over them. I just don't see us losing to them at home. The worst matchup for us style wise has already come and gone and we escaped with the win.

Its definitely possible that we slip up somewhere along the line but we'll be clear favorites in every game and with good reason.

I disagree. Auburn and that style of motion and misdirection offense is our worst match up.

Me either. You shut down Newton and they got nothing.

I'll agree that we aren't as good as we are being pumped up to be; however, I see improvements being made with a quickness. If our guys can maintain focus and intensity in preparation each week...we are gonna be tough to bring down. (stole these pics...but) Check out these pictures:

Alabama O vs. Florida D at the 1/2 yard line



Florida O vs. Alabama D at the 1/2 yard line


I'm a major fan of the toughness we show there. I just hope we can keep it up.

Yeah it's pretty damn realistic. It happens all the time.

Ask any LSU fan on here about "pigs flying" in Tuscaloosa the last time Alabama was on a run such as the one they are on now.

You know we honestly got lucky last year against UT and they were nowhere near in our league.

So yeah it's pretty realistic.

Bama is the best team in the country and will be as long as Saban is there. If they lose another game in 5 years you should all be ashamed. They are the greatest team in the history of man. He is the greatest coach. Alabama is the greatest place to live in the entire universe. They have the prettiest girls. Their weather is perfect. God is from Alabama. I know because their fans keep telling me.
