I just disagree. Without the 4 turnovers, Bama would have beaten Florida 60-0. They never even slowed Bama down and never came close to scoring without the turnovers. Saban will have that cleaned up. This game will be like State vs USM. The bears will be fired up but will lay down once they get smacked a little.

Hope you're right. Would enjoy seeing that.

I suspect the current line takes into account that Sims is dinged up.

Scheduling Boise when they are still somewhat a popular name, but no where near what they were. Couple of good breaks there.

You seem to have forgotten that OM was supposed to play Boose 2 years ago, when Boise was much stronger OM knew that was a loss so they pushed the game back and schedule the school for the blind instead. Which translated into barely making a bowl at 6-6, subsequently fueling 2 recruiting classes, and the unwarranted hype they have now. If they play Boise when they were originally scheduled to, OM would still be squandering in irrelevancy. But they'll be headed back that direction around 6 PM Saturday evening.

If our back-up QB can beat them, I'm sure Bama's can too.

So, by halftime, more people in VHS or the grove?

I heard they had Simms going oppo to practice for the 3rd quarter. Saban the Merciful

Henry may have over 300 yards against the Rebs.

Easy question. The grove.
