That game would have lot of storylines with the biggest being old school vs new school.

The A&M game is a dangerous one but it's in Tuscaloosa.

I think the Texas AM game is going to be rough next week.

The A&M game shouldn't be too close, IMO. Bama should come out very sharp and focused after that LSU scare. Mettenberger played very well, he reminded me of Stephen Garcia's game against Alabama in 2010.

IMO, Alabama blitzed too much on defense. They should've dropped 7 or 8 into coverage once LSU started keeping 7+ guys into block on pass plays.

The defense would've been stronger if they weren't on the field all game. The offense has to play better than that if Bama is going to go undefeated. Should've ran the ball more IMO.

There is no chance whatsoever.

Gogue is pretty much telling people, "The process is underway and some important decisions have already been made. We're handling it, I'm the man not some mythical, shadow group. This will be over very soon. Now get out of my business."

For real? Louisville's offensive success has more to do with a terrific QB than the coordinator. Watson has done a great job bringing Bridgewater along but the pro style system he runs is hardly innovative.

More and more it's looking like running Malzahn and his O scheme out of town will be the ultimate downfall for Chizik.

The Proset seems to be buried under a tsunami.

Alabama is three possessions down from one of the most prolific offenses in the country. It'll be an uphill climb to pull off a come back.

Re: SEC Football Discussion Thread

Wow A&M goes to Tuscaloosa and takes em down. That's impressive.

Also, Manziel doesn't seem to be struggling with those SEC defenses.

Bama needs some teams to lose.

Re: SEC Football Discussion Thread

Lee Corso looks like a genius for picking A & M to win this game.

Re: SEC Football Discussion Thread

I think eventually Saban will recruit smaller DE's that are a little faster to keep these dual threat qbs contained. DE's basically did nothing tonight. Welcome to the new SEC.

Dual threat Qb's that have beaten Saban coach Alabama teams: Tebow,Newton,Garcia,and the Utah kid. What all did they have in common: Making Saban account for them on the field.

Yep. I was a little short-sighted in my prediction.

I'll take it though.
