🏈 How many games does Bama win in September?

[Bryant Disciple]

Bama plays 5 games in September.

Since 1996, we've run the table in September only twice (1996 and 2005).

What's our record look like on October 1?

Sorry to state the obvious, but since 1996 we have had some of our worst years in UA football history and I for one have had some of the worst memories ingrained in my pea brain that anyone in any sport should have to stand. :lol: Not a lot of great memories on or off the field during that time.
The only game I am dreading in our foreseable future is Florida.

I see us winning 4 almost surely. I know we can beat Arkansas now. We have the talent to really put the hurt on them...doing that is another question.

I don't see us beating Florida...alot of tangibles against us. However I could be really wrong..which I really hope I am.

 

[Rams and Jams]

Okay who the heck voted one game? You seriously think we lose to La-Monroe?

 

[dabaxter]

I voted 4. The Florida game is still in doubt for me.

Next week is the only one I'm worried about for now. I told you I'm old-school. The next game is always the biggest.

 

[billygoatyj]

We'll be 5-0. You can't go into any game thinking you'll lose or you will. But I also agree with BamaDelta, the next game is always the biggetst game of the year.

While I understand the old school approach, it's hard to resist peering in the crystal ball.

I don't foresee losses to Vandy or LA Monroe unless Mike DuBose is put back in charge.

I'm feeling better about Arkansas now. Houston Nutt is sleeping with one eye open. Plus, he's switched to an offensive scheme that our D should match up well against. The piggies are a very winnable game.

The trip to Gainesville looms large. We'll almost certainly be underdogs. If beating the Gators in T-town was Coach Shula's "signature win," beating them in the Swamp would eclipse that achievement!

If Bama is as fired up as last year against Fl we win. If not bama can forget it.

Mike Dubose's playcalling may be better.....

Ummmmm, NO!

Two words: Ed Scissum. :wink:

 

[Condor 63]

4 is the smart pick so I went with it, but 5 is definitely not out of the question.

The FL VS TN game will give us a good preview. If Tennessee can cram that spread we can too. I'm looking forward to watching them on the 16th.

Actually I've always had a big soft spot for Ed in my heart. If you ever watched him after that play you'd agree. While I get what you're talking about the true two words are Bruce Arians. :x

I know you didn't mean it like that anyway BD.

 

[Bryant Disciple]

Yeah, I felt so bad for Ed after that play. He fought with all his heart that day.

Arians made the call; DuBose later admitted he had no idea WHAT play was called.

Those memories do put our present situation in perspective. It feels good to be complaining about "ugly wins" again. I'll take a couple of ugly wins over Arkansas and Florida...
