FWIW, I wasn't being facetious. The only way Bama loses to those teams is if Bama fricks up.

State would have maybe a 1 in a billion chance to pull the upset. Aggie, no chance at all.

The Tide starters should be well rested after blowing out the tigahs the week before aTm comes to town so aggie will face a full strength Bama.

JFF will never be the same.

Our defense is far superior to yours.


Mettenberger had you beat deep literally all game. Not our fault he consistently overthrew those guys, but we won't.

Your defense is nowhere close to SEC ready. Sorry, it just isn't. The one legitimate pass threat that you saw put up 57 points and 450 yards through the air on you.

Your offense actually would scare me, if we didn't have 3 different ready-made blueprints on how to stop it...

The question isn't who WILL beat Bama this year ... it is who is more likely.

The answer can't be "neither" because the question is comparative between the two choices.

If State .00000003% likelihood of beating Bama, yes I am over stating ... I rounded cause I got tired of typing zeros ...

And Texas A&M is .001% likelihood of beating Bama then the answer is Texas A&M.



The answer most certainly can be neither, because your asking for opinions from random people. If someone believes that both teams have a zero percent chance to beat Alabama then their answer is neither. Also if you throw in the "any given Saturday" theory then both teams have a fifty percent chance to win (two teams, one winner), so their answer would be that neither team is more likely to win.

The A&M v. Bama game fascinates me. Manziel is quick on his feet for sure. He gave our guys a run for his money for a while. I'm curious to see how the bama defense runs after him. I don't think A&M will prevail, but it should be a fun game to watch.

Aggies more likely.

Bama plays the two most physical teams on their schedule the prior two weeks. Will be physically and mentally(from lsu game) tired heading into the Aggie game. If Bama can get past this game, smooth sailing.

If Bama loses to LSU, may God have mercy on Mr.Football

Raw statistics? Yes it is. There are two possible outcomes for the this game. Win or lose. Each team has a fifty percent chance to win this game at this time. If they played this same game (same conditions, same roster, etc.) ten times and Alabama won the previous nine times, A&M/MSU still has a fifty percent chance to win the tenth. Predictions about the outcome may bend the odds in one teams favor to probably win the game, but not definitely. The only definite is that one wins and one loses.

But he was asking for opinion on the outcome. If someone thinks that neither A&M nor State have any chance to probably win the game then their answer is neither.

These A&M fans really suck. The threads are horrible. They have brought nothing . . . nothing to the Rant. Jeez, to the SEC for that matter. Can we drop them and get . . . I dunno, Baylor or Texas Tech?

That is sad. I'd rather go to the desert of Lubbock and watch a game than to A&M.

No. If State has a ten percent chance to win the game, and they lose 9 in a row, they still have a ten percent chance to win the tenth game. You're a moron.
