Would love to win, but realistically I'd like to see continued improvement in our team and have them play hard; hopefully no more injuries. Miracles can happen. I did buy some lottery tickets tonight. Lol.Progress, steady progress. Player development. In game adjustments. THIS is what this team needed in the worst way and we are seeing it right before our eyes.
Here’s what I hate. Every year we talk about being competitive vs Bama and get blown the f*** out and people flip out and want to burn the university to the ground.

Not just lately. Herbie seems to have a soft spot for us. I remember him picking us to win the division in '06 despite the disaster the previous season. Off the top of my head, I know that he also picked us in '15 and '16 as well. I think it's safe to say that any criticism from him is, like many members of this site, due to his high expectations.
Herbstreit is feelin TN lately. I think it will be closer than most think.
If they can avoid turnovers and get at least average play from the O-line, they can keep it under the spread, maybe as little as 17 to 21 point loss. If not, it will be a very long day.
I’ll be shocked if we are within 2 TD by the 4th quarter. No one knows how this game plays out. Might be a defensive struggle for both teams then again Bama might light it up. If JG has a decent day and we keep it close anything can happen. I still don’t think we get destroyed by 40+ this year. I’m predicting it stays within 3 TD....I’d bd shocked if by the 3rd quarter we’re not down by at least 40 points.
and sadly, a 3 TD win over us would be the "toughest test yet" for bama, that's how good they've been this yearI’ll be shocked if we are within 2 TD by the 4th quarter.

Herbstreit with the jinx...but hopefully we can prove him right on Saturday.
