i don't want to hear well 'bama lost to utah cuse they didn't have their left tackle - if the sec and bama are dominant they s/b able to dominate utah and the game shouldn't even be close with or without 1 starting OL out

IF there were a 4 or 8 team playoff, usc would not string together 2-3 blowouts against Good defenses and teams that would punch back.

Bama does not have the depth (right now) of usc, fla and texas. sure Bama can lose tonight. IF Bama plays the the way they played clemson, uga, auburn, it shouldn't be close.... if they play like they did against ole miss. it will be close.

listen - if OSU is not that good then this s/b a big win tonight for 'bama no?

osu lost by 3 at Utah

utah has to come cross country to the sugar bowl - which is almost a home game for any sec team , and they should hammer them - no excuses , we shall see tonight

tide - what do you think was 'bama's best win this season ???

Pitt was awful this year. They couldn't even win a conference that had nobody this year AND lost to bowling green of all people. I tried to watch a game of theirs twice and flipped the channel both times. Plus, they'll always get outcoached as long as Wanny's there.

on my confidence sheets I've got a minimum of 29 on 'bama (2 sheets with 34). Utah's only game against a decent defense was tcu, which they should have lost at home. Bama's defense is better than tcu's and their offense is alot better than tcu.

first off, OSU does not stink. Anyone on here who said that was wrong.

Stop doing this "well this team beat that team who beat that team so they must be better" junk cause its meaningless in college football!!!!!!

not at all. i'm stating a fact. Bama had NO business being 12-0 this year, 8-4 tops. they beat clemson in atlanta, uga in athens, ut in knoxville and lsu in BR. they were 10 underdogs to fla and left the game slip away. they got some Good upper classmen leadership this year and pulled the team together. 9 senoirs but 3 are OL. the defense is mostly fresh. and sophs.
the 2 games they played without AS, they struggled. i'm hoping that, these guys came to far this season to allow it to end with a loss.
