Good thread, Alex. It underscores the advantage Bama has coming in. It’s almost discouraging to compare the teams position by position. Bama is Bama. They pay to recruit the cream of the crop. They hold a decisive advantage on paper.
Euro makes a good point. With Waddle out, it makes the Bama receiving corps less lethal from a speed standpoint. Regardless, Sarkisian will take what the defense gives, and our defense gives lots of choices. I worry more about stopping the Bama run. We lack size and physicality, just the kind of opponent Bama, with that huge offensive line, can exploit to no end.
We’ll need turnovers, big plays and a big night from Trask, which won’t happen unless the OL allows him time to get set in the pocket. Pitts will have an extra someone on him because he’s that dangerous. Can Bama shut down all 6-feet-6 of him? It’s why we play the game.
FIFY
