Will ALABAMA "soften up" Florida for us! This remains to be seen! I don't get to hear the sports talk radio much being overseas ... But on vacation this past August, I listened to Paul Finebaum (Tennessee homer) show for the first time ... I did this because I was in DC/WV area and the Shadys scandal was out there. You really hear how inbred both Auburn & Alabama fan base is when Paul Finebaum gets them in there cutting on each other on live radio ... This Tennessee homer is too damned funny. One observation I made (Finebaum show): All the Bama homers were talking crap about LSU and how Oregon was gonna lay the wood to us ... They had us written off for the season after the Shady's incident and all were calling for Oregon to maul the Tigers, and they were making light of LSU ... typical BAMA preseason BS and Finebaum lets them carry on like BAMA is god's gift to CFB. What I really sensed in their calls was "FEAR OF OUR LSU TIGERS" After the LSU beatdown on Oregon ... You didn't hear a peep from them! Now the shoe is on the other foot ... BAMA has Arkansas and Florida in back to back weeks ... and we get Florida after Bama faces them in the SWAMP Questions you gotta be thinking about: 1. Does Bama beat Arkansas in Tuscaloosa? 2. Does Bama beat Florida in the Swamp? WHAT SAY YOU? I have watched Arkansas, Bama, and Florida now for these past weeks. I think Alabama may win a close game with Arkansas, it will be a toss-up, but I don't think they win in the Swamp against a rested Gator bunch with a serious rushing defense ... held UT to -9 rushing in a 33-23 win and UF doesn't turn the ball over much. In closing, BAMA could lose both games! Predictions: BAMA 14, Arkansas 13 BAMA 17, Florida 24
Ar-kansas struggled against Troy yesterday. If bama lives up to any of the hype, they should have no problem with the pork.
That's what I believe will happen ... Arky loses to Bama in Tuscaloosa ... Bama loses to UF in the SWAMP ... UF loses to LSU Gotta put that BAMA mule to work ... Haw Mule, Haw Saban!
I guess great defenses just get no respect, even from folks with one. So we'll just keep muddling along with our conservative offensive ways and hope for the best.
The game between bama and lsu will be the de facto national championship game. If bama moved to the east then bama and lsu would own Atlanta. We would meet almost every year. Except when au buys itself an offense and defense.
So Ramah G..you don't get a chance to listen to too much SportsTalk...But have watched alot of TV the past two weeks? What say you.
We won't get the respect we deserve until we destroy the gumps in their house this year. That's a fact. Sports reporters spank off to pictures of Nick saban hanging on the wall in their bathroom.
I will be pulling for Bama (except when they play us) but I don't believe they will win in the swamp. I hope I'm wrong.
