🏈 🔎 Looking ahead to this weekend:Vanderbilt -- How does Alabama match up with the Commodores?

[UAgrad93]

Just a bitch ass cop out in my opinion! Hell! They could’ve or should’ve gotten someone off of McFarland BLVD with more connection to the HOME TEAM! Maybe ask the custodian at McClure Library if they had 10-15 minutes to spare!

I’m pretty confident Bama will handle business. But there are a couple of benchmarks I’d like to see them meet before I start to toss out some previous results (data). This month of games will answer those questions.

I'm with you. I think between you and @TerryP It confirms my feelings toward the game. At the end of the day, I think we all are saying, Just take care of business tomorrow and we should be okay. If there's one thing that's an advantage for Alabama out of all this, it's the people doubting Alabama... and Vandy's cockiness.

As matter of fact, let me place wager on the game.

I'm thinking we know what we've been dealt as fans this season. Well, let me change that a bit. We know our current hand. Seen the flop. This is the turn.

I amuse myself when that widow, she's white, visits.

Brandon is the ying to my yank.

Sooner or later, Bama's run game is going to really break though... maybe tomorrow, maybe down the road. But IMO, it's a ticking time bomb. And much like week 1, when some fans were down on Simpson for his play against FSU... I pushed back on that. Last week, Bama's run game against UGA garnered some internet groans. After going back and watching it again, I saw some promising stuff. I know Grubb wants to run it and he seems pretty dedicated to it thus far. I hope it stays that way. And I can absolutely see a scenario where the identity of this offense is fully formed and revealed tomorrow in Bryant-Denny.

We need a parlay for bama breaking out a long run tomorrow.

This is why I mentioned Riley earlier. Thanks for bringing that back up.

Vandy's second level is pretty damn good...

Vandy talking smack- 100

Bama - zero



I like that. Vandy has been running that mouth all week.

 

[bamanc50]

I think we know the Vandy QB is very good however, IMO if our defensive guys will play with a mad on and light him up a couple times he will get gun shy. Does anyone remember Mark Barron light up another Vandy QB? Jordan Rodgers !!!!

If the opportunity is there, I hope Alabama runs the score up to send a message.

I was up all night watching film(and a little sopranos). Before I knew it, it was morning. Time to pull a fucking all dayer baby! Coffee, monster energy drinks, meth.... let's do this shit.

Finger up your arse again?

What I don't understand is why some of the fans acting like this for no reason. If Alabama beats Vandy tomorrow, then we're going to have same fans saying same thing about SC. It's trauma speaking.

I am consistent win or lose. I evaluate performance based on what I see on the field and yes stats matter. I see a very good offense post FSU game. I see a medicore run defense. Not sure why saying that seems to be a problem for certain people on this board. When the efficiency #'s started getting posted I just shake my head. Been on this board enough to know certain folks are going to consistently go there as if they are trying to say do not trust what you are seeing on the field.

It appears that it's going to be a repeat of the hyperbole of the last two seasons as well. More of "defense sucks" when the focus is singular.

My focus was LOS on both sides until the UGA game. Still needs some improvement on offense for the run game but I did see improvement in that area against UGA even though it was 117 yards. It was enough to be effective. Of course would be great to get more push and that is an area I do think will continue to improve. Will stop beating the dead horse with regards to the LOS for the D. I hope we simply start by having the D players on the same page so we do not see three defensive players in the same gap.

Want to score 1 more point than them. Have no expectations for the college game now. NIL payment could have been late, maybe some don’t want to play….
