🏈 It may be one of those years..

where our greatest moment is ruining some other team's chance at Atlanta or the playoffs.

As much as it pains me to consider, the number of int's alone that we are likely to see from this team will result in another couple of losses. But I also think this team has the capacity to beat anyone if they have a good game.

Different kind of year... it may help our sanity to have different expectations.

For sure.

If every game is played like the Ole Miss game, maybe. I expect some changes in the quality of play moving forward. I still expect to compete for the SEC West.

 

[We All Bleed Crimson]

I'm not ready to call it one of those seasons yet. I think the Tide wakes up and gets it going with a run for the SEC title and playoff. If we didn't play the worst game (as far as turnovers) in Saban's Bama career, we win the old miss game. It's time to get rolling and move on. ROLL TIDE!!

For any kind of success we have got to get out s@!$ together. But we also will need Ole Miss to lose.... Twice! That's a tall order given that Auburn is so awful this year. I think LSU could beat the , but who else will step up and give us another chance?

 

[jdpas29]

The only way Ole miss loses 2 is if their qb goes down imo

Auburn will have a surprise or two. LSU is probably favored by 14 points already. You can't rule out Miss State in the Egg Bowl. Arkansas may be overlooked. There are plenty of opportunities for OM to lose and the season is early.

They will run out of steam down the stretch and lose 2-3.

I wish I had your optimism rock. I don't see Ole Miss losing much.

I could be wrong and they may run the table but honestly, they gave up 500+ yards to Alabama and came within 3 minutes of still losing after being +4 in the TO margin. It took the final gift for them to put us away. How good is Ole Miss? I think it remains to be seen.

Until our QB situation becomes reasonable, FML.

 

[mrchase]

With all that went wrong last week....we lost by 6 with the ball in our hand at the end. Ole Miss didn't impress me offensively.

As a poster I like you but right here I think you are dead wrong. We gave them the ball 5 times when it wasn't theirs. They had 1 freak luck play and at least 3 plays that Tom "I either had a stroke or am drunk" Ritter's crew shit the bed and they only won by 6. They will get their ass handed to them at least once on account of oline play and will lose at least 1 close one. My money is on the who's and Aggies. Then throw the shit show that is the egg bowl into the mix. They ain't no daisy. Cyrus was right.

The thing that needs to be considered here is if we remove the INT's from the Ole Miss game the Tide still is in a huge struggle due to the fumbles.

I'm still of the same opinion as I had, and shared, after the season opener last year. It's far, far too early for the over-reactions I'm seeing.

 

[im4uainva]

I just want to try and put Ole Miss out of my mind for now. And I hope Bama doesn't. I want to see Bama's attitude is to beat their opponent into the ground on every play. Dominate, overpower, beat into submission everyone that stands in their way of winning every game. In other words, back to the time their standard was "Make their ass quit!" When we see that attitude emerge again, I will feel that things will be alright.

Roll Tide!

 

[Teague]

Ole Miss is a good team, but overrated. They have no running game. They can be run on. Bama made them look better than they are.

It could be that neither team is very good. Time will tell.

Ole Miss has an "identity." They have to be good based on what I've read here ...

 

[alabama mike]

You could be right or wrong about your assessment of the tea this year but right now, I will respectfully disagree that we will play spoiler. The season is a marathon not a sprint.

 

[jdpas29]

Ile miss has a good defense and a good qb. That was enough to beat Alabama on a bad day. I think some other sec teams match up better against them than we do.

Bama matches up better against lsu than Ole miss
