🏈 🔎 Lookin ahead to Indiana

[alabama mike]

Am I correct that IU lost their best DL in their last game???

Yes

Facts: Bama is 5-0 in road games this season....against the SEC. I've been saying, rest.

Two major areas of improvment in year 2 under CKD is penalties and road performance....

Love this…

The legacy of Bama football greatness that we all enjoy began in that game!!!!

Just comparing schedule for schedule - quality of teams played and quality of wins.

They have some pretty solid W’s - @ Oregon and in the Conference Championship against Ohio State. Outside of those two games, their best wins would either be Illinois 63-10, @ Iowa 20-15 or @ Penn State 27-24.

Probably Illinois is their third best win.

I haven’t watched a whole lot of them this season, but they’re a team that has proven they can play with the big boys. BUT, they don’t seem like they’re a very battle tested bunch when it comes to their conference schedule….lots of blowouts.

I think having a first round BYE can be a disadvantage. We seem like we were able to avoid any major injuries and got a good tune up before playing we play Indiana.

Will need a complete team effort in this one.

Be careful and don’t lull yourself to sleep on these guys. They haven’t played the schedule we have, so they are well rested and motivated. Beware!!

Definitely not sleeping on the Hoosiers. They’re well coached, and beat what most people would view as the most talented team in the country in Ohio State.

@Oregon is a quality win as well. Probably not as quality of a win as @UGA, but not far behind.

Their kicker is almost automatic. Just seems like a team that isn’t going to beat themselves.

Heard this before

 

[bamatommy]

Or AUs.

They had chances. Like us in regular season

Amazing how games mirrored each other. Exact opposite

Good point. Auburn had a good defense this year.

 

[footballer]

I'm not sure what to expect, probably a dog fight though. I just hope we spend a good amount of time between now and game day practicing
fundamentals, such as blocking, tackling and pass catching.

 

[BamaFan334]

This is going to be a tougher game than most want to admit. This ain't the Indiana we grew up watching. They bullied Oregon at their place. They beat an Ohio State team that dominated everyone this year. I agree their schedule doesn't touch Alabama's, but they smacked everyone on their schedule and did what they had to do, minus Penn State where they got lucky which you gotta do to win it all at some point. They got an offense thay can go and my concern is their receivers not dropping the ball and eating us alive. As long as the offense can help our defense get a breather, we have a good chance.

 

[bamaledge]

First!!! I never thought I would see a day where Indiana was number 1, or that we were the underdog to them!

Second, there is only one game in common and that is Wisconsin and it is pretty much a wash.
SO,
How do we match up with (ahem) Indiana?

We’ve had the much tougher schedule but they’ve had some good wins against a couple of the better teams.

I believe we can beat them and I also believe we can beat them soundly.

What say you?

 

[TerryP]

If Bama runs through IU...we will be laughing at this game.

@TerryP , I, purposely, waited 24 hours to post this! But it was so hard! You know I wanted to right after we beat Oklahoma.

We don’t need direct quote, generally speaking will do. Enlighten the masses sir

Hope we do not let the name Indiana cause us to think of them in terms of their history... It will be hard to. That is how I think of Vandy which is not fair these days. With tha said it is a bizarre world that has Indiana #1 and a 6-7 point favorite over Bama. I hope the stage is to big for Indiana as that has not been in their DNA in football.

Right. Saw that end of penn state. The receivers made some unbelievable catches.
QB had heisman moment ..

Drops will be our downfall...if it continues...eventually.
#2 isnt reliable. .... #5 is but still had a very big one...its like the flu....just very contagious

Unbelievable catches? Ok, but can they do it again and again?
