We all know beating Alabama will be tough, but it certainly isn't impossible. Alabama is a top 10 team no doubt, probably have more talent than just about anyone and a great coach. But. It isn't 2009-2012 anymore. Alabama is beatable. If we just play our game without thinking "omg we are playing Alabama" like Texas A&M did, we will be able to win. We are a 5-1 or 6-0 football team, but the coaches and players simply had to learn how to win the close games. They finally did that. Don't play scared. And imo it'll be down to the last drive of the game.

The key to victory is to have more points than the opponent at the end of the game.

Just kidding.... we can win no doubt. This would turn our season around big time. GBO!!!!!!

If we are at least plus 3 in turnovers (no drops by our db's for a change) and are efficient in the red zone then we can keep it close. Dobbs will need to play the game of his life and we must have a consistent pass rush and tackle well. For the first time this season, I'm not even nervous about tomorrow. If we win, it's our biggest victory since 2001. If we lose, it was fully expected and we still have a good shot at 8-4. No worries.

I agree with most of what you said. It is true. We should be at least 5-1 and should have been ranked close to the top 10 right now. The only thing that worries me is all of the injuries. Hopefully we can still win. It will def be more of a challenge now though. You are right...as long as they don't play scared, they have a chance.

The key to victory tomorrow is:

1. Turn the input at 3:30 tomorrow to Xbox or PS4.
2. Play the game
3. Beat Bama 71-3
4. Turn off tv and don't check the score.

I've found that the key to a victory is to score 1 more point than the other team at the minimum

Our passing game and our pass defense are the two key units that need to be on their A-game for us to win. Henry will get his yards and more than likely Bama will stop the run. They'll also probably spy Dobbs a bunch or try to contain him which should opportunities to torch them. Hopefully Dobbs's accuracy is spot on.

We will need some trick plays to open up the run game. Maybe pass by Hurd to Hobbs.

They will be coming after our punter to reduce his awesomeness, maybe that could be countered with some deception.

Need to gamble on defense and send some corners.

Play them straight up and get curb stomped.
