I saw a Cole Cubelic YT about Bama's running "struggles" .

He made an interesting point... Only GT in the top 20 are a dominant run team but they are a true RUN team...

There are only 6 SEC backs in the top 50

None of the SEC schools are what we could call dominant on the ground... maybe Mizzou but Bama held that RB to 50 yrds.. and he's #3 in the nation.

I don't see any team outside of maybe ND that really leans on their running game..

Yes, this is about Alabama not having a running game... and I'm saying it's clear that THIS Bama team doesn't have to have a strong running game.. and based on our 8 straight wins it's apparent we don't need to... we've been able to run when it was necessary I don't see it being a problem.

We've already faced the nations toughest schedule... when is this supposed to bite us in the arse...?

It won't.

1. Bama over #5 UGA on the road 33 game win streak.
2. FSU over Bama after 2-10 season but at home
3. OSU over Tex.. name only
4. UVA over FSU

Probably better to get us now than later in the season. that said we win on Saturday it’s gonna be very tough sledding for Bama for the rest of the year.

Not really, that would only be 1 SEC loss and on the Road.. an SECC game appearance would not be off the table with a loss. AND this is supposedly our toughest game of the year.

Watching the puppies play this year I just gotta say. I haven't seen the dominance there... Austin Peay and Marshall weren't anywhere near the type of performances you'd expect from earlier teams... run game was about avg and a major reliance on the lateral passing game... I'm sure you could say they were limiting their offense for the matchup with uT but 4 TDs vs Austin Peay and nothing very impressive about the Marshall game... the dawgs were actually slipping in the polls as the voters weren't impressed either.

Then the uT game where their D gave up huge plays and couldn't slow them down at all. Definitely, a game they should have lost but.. relying on a kicker can do that. But uga was definitely out played to some extent. So still no domination has been seen from this version of the dawgs.

I know Bama hasn't won a challenging game to this point but they definitely dominated their 2 lesser opponents in traditional TIDE fashion. Obviously, I think Bama can go into GA and beat the dawgs We seem to have a really explosive offense and a tough QB who has the wheels to get out of trouble... Our D gets back it's leader and and center piece of the D line so we definitely have the Team that will go into Sanford with a good chance at victory.

*I can't stand the fact that uga gets BAMA type status without actually beating Bama to any torch passing degree. I mean how does losing 90% of the time to the Most dominant team in FB give you the mantle? we're not even gonna talk about the ridiculously easy route to a dynasty outside of the FSU Acc reign.

Anyway, looking forward to a great game with the Tide Rolling Again!!! Bama 40 Uga 24.

He is top 5 in completion percentage this year. And he doesn't throw too many short passes.

Don't let facts get in the way of these BAMA Bama haters opinions. They still want Ty in there so bad they can't see straight.

Started bringing in the "one and dones" for them to drool over... UK was back to putting kids in the NBA.. that was somehow a big time thing.. players lined up to use UK as a pit stop...

That worked ok at 1st but didn't last long as the veterans started filtering out and whole teams of newbies took over.

UK is about to enter the world of NIL and transfer portal madness while in turmoil... They haven't done enough recently to be that big of a deal to kids who can play anywhere for a year and move around at their leisure.

Going to be very interesting to see the true decline of a once proud Blueblood.

Bama is the new big dog on the block by the way and we're just getting started!!!

Bump this... Bad MFer Roll Tide!!

We're in LA now and I bet it will be a partisan Bama crowd.. I'm sure they don't like that shade of blue In that area.

Bama's depth and shooting will be big.. look for big games from Griffin and Grant.. Pringle is gonna give Bacot problems.. long rebounds from Bama and nobody can stay in front of Sears.

Upset special Bama by 10+

As Bama is the 2nd winningest SEC school.. we haven't had any horrible coaches.. just some underperformers.. Hobbs and Grant could've been better. Gottfried is a program fixer not a sustainer. Avery could have done some good things but I don't think he particularly liked being here after a few years.
Newton, Wimp and Oats are legendary now Gottfried too.. he just fell off.

Arkansas has a terribly inflated opinion of itself...
