Crompton is 41-79, 2 TD, 6 INT

Alabama has the No. 1 Defense in the entire country.



I bring this up because I've heard most people questioning McElroy going against Tenn's D.

When facing a quality team Bama cheats 97% of the time.

I bring this up because it is Bama and I hate them.

And before you think that Hardesty is sure to be the answer to any passing struggles. Alabama hasn't let a RB have 100 yd in a game in 26 games.

Stats are from previous games. If they meant much to this game, we would forfeit.

This game can't start soon enough.

I agree, I'm having a hard time not negating a year+ on this board as a some what sensible poster by being trollish in the final 2 hours before kick off.

I'm gonna go do something to burn some time.

So what exactly are you attempting to support with this "evidence"?

Neither QB is that good and this game comes down to the battle of the defenses. Enough said.

I don't think any reasonable UT fan is expecting Crompton to light up Bama like he did UGA. It will be much tougher for our OL to give him enough time to throw, and I also think our WRs will struggle to get open. I'm sure Saban will try to take the rollout away, as Crompton has clearly shown that he is most effective when rolling out of the pocket.

However, I think UT fans have a very good reason to question McElroy's ability to beat us throwing the ball. Fact is, he hasn't looked very sharp lately. UT's D is more than good enough to keep this game interesting if Bama struggles to get Ingram going.

I think Bama's depth will be the difference and will carry them to about a 10-14 point win. I think Bama wins 24-14.

Ok so that means that if Crompton lights you up then it means you got Cromptoned...But if you WIN and keep him under control then thats what everybody expected to happen then huh?...Hmmmm....Sounds to me like all the pressure is on Alabubba :pepper:

Actually Cromp Daddy has started looking better for the last couple of games. Most Vol fans I've talked to agree that the light has finally started coming on for him, today will be the test though.

Doesn't make the statement true.

There are a lot of different kinds of football teams. Two of which are teams that don't want the pressure and teams that don't mind having it. With that being said I'd say your statement is 100% true.

Looks like it. Might as well fire up the bus and head back to Knoxville so we can get ready to play South Carolina on paper.
The "play south carolina on paper" was hilarious, kudos to you GAVol, lol.

The funny thing is if you Bammers win you still don't get any bragging rights. You are suppose to win. But, if we win look out. Because we do get bragging rights. Sucks doesn't it Bammers.
GO VOLS!!
