Bama People...Honest Question for You:
1. Kickoff coverage blows
2. Consistent passing game
3. Stupid mistakes
4. Red-zone efficiency
5. Lack of depth at QB. If McElroy goes down, we're Mcfricked.

---

I agree with everything on this list except #5. I mean, I agree with the statement however, you could say that about almost any team that has ever won a championship. If they would have lost their starting QB they probably wouldn't have made it either.

My eyes are bleeding... can't... see... to... finish... this... messa...

Not really impressed. They know they are going to win the Sunbelt so they can afford to loose to a BCS team. Its about money. La Tech plays in a harder conference and usually plays 2 BCS opponents a year. They don't do it because they are fearless, they do it cause they need the paychecks.

---

Part of it has to be because they are fearless. I mean why risk injury against far superior teams if your goal is to just win the Sun Belt. I understand they want the paychecks, but please point out another school in the country at Troy's level playing this type of schedule. I can't think of one. There may be but not coming to mind. I am just saying they deserve props for playing this schedule.

Just curious. I couldn't remember. I thought it was not in the NFL but was still in college. Never did like that rule anyways... even though my wife graduated from Troy.

Seriously, though. Has anyone noticed that Troy is not afraid to play anyone? Gotta say I am impressed with their schedule.

Ben thinks he's better than Ingram and this is a problem for you people?I like the confidence

Confidence is one thing(and I do like confidence.) However, you DO NOT call out the best running back you will face all year and dare him to prove he is better. I would definitely not be happy about this if I were AU's Def. Coord. You don't think that Bama's D is gonna use this for bulletin board fodder also, then you are just crazy. I would be surprised if Tate breaks 50 yds against Bama now.

How exactly is he overrated? He's one of the most productive players at his position in the country.

---

Amen. That's exactly why I put him on the list. I mean, the best defensive conference in the country and he is the leader in INT's and in top 5 in passes defended. However, those 2 plays by Johnson yesterday that saved touchdowns were amazing. And Barron saved one right after those.

I haven't logged on here since last week and can't believe you guys are still talking about this. Few stats for ya...
