Ty Simpson is really poised from what I’ve seen.

The Florida state game, he was absolutely SHOOK. He was missing wide open throws. Considering they're 89th in the country in sacks allowed, and we're #1 in the country in team sacks, I like our chances to disrupt his rhythm

I hate to be negative but I don’t have any good feelings about this game. Despite a few stats our defense is horrible where it matters. Simpson will pick us apart in our zone. Our secondary play outside Hood has been pretty bad. My gut tells me Bama covers.

Be sure to give Tennessee credit if we do win!

I don’t get the Jam Miller love? I checked their stats and he only has a couple hundred yards rushing and 1 TD on the season. Bishop has double the yards and 5 TDs. I went back to last season and he had just over 600 yards and 7 TDs on the year. Decent year I guess but hardly elite. Compare that to Sampson’s beast mode year. To me their QB is the one to be concerned about but I get that our rush defense is not good also.

Miller was injured before the season and didn't play until the Georgia game.

I absolutely will and they will have proved me wrong. I obviously don’t want what I predicted to happen but I try to be a realist.

This coaching staff has proven our fans wrong dozens of times over the years. Have a little faith man. Enjoy football for what it is. We're in a rebuilding season and we still look good!

We have studs across the field on both sides that match up well but if the D line can’t get sacks or pressure in one on one scenarios then we get gashed bad by a run or a throw right at the sticks. Secondary needs to play way less off the ball and we need to stop allowing so many yards on the ground.

Get pressure on Simpson and he gets inaccurate. Mizzo showed that. They abused Bama's freshman RT. Mizzo was in the game all the way to the end and they have absolutely zero down field passing. UT should be able to move the ball offensively on Bama.

The guy was 74% (23/31) with 200 yards and 3 TDs. I'd take that type of "inaccuracy" all day long.

This game will be absolutely won in the trenches. The keys will be 3rd downs for both teams and who makes the best in game adjustments as a coaching staff. Banks made some good halftime adjustments last week, but this week we will need to be evolving during the game. Can't wait until halftime.
I can't help but wonder if Heupel has been saving something for this week. Banks needs to just throw the kitchen sink at Simpson because their run game is not all that great. Worse than Arkansas, uga, and MSU for sure. Simpson may be their leading rusher on Saturday.

He was like 53% against FSU (no jam miller). If Miller is out and our sack attack is on (#1 - nation), I like our odds.
I think our pass rush is better than FSU.

We've won 2 out of the last three against Bamma, see no reason to not go down there and ring their bell and take a W.

Things are never as bad or as good as they seem.

After the FSU loss Bammer was 5 and 5 out of their last 10 games. Let that sink in. 5 losses out of their last 10 games. They
go on to win a couple, get Miller back and win three closer type games that they could have lost anyone of with a bad turnover.
Now they're suppose to be this big Juggernaut I'm told.. ya okay.

Saturday night a W or a L will register for us.
It's Beat Bammer week! Expect to Win guys. I'm not gonna lose midweek.

GO BIG ORANGE!!!
