A month to prepare, and plenty of speed on Bama’s D.
Did I mention a Month to prepare? Washington’s RB put up almost 170 yards rushing on Oregon...Bama has 3-4 Rbs that good...and a better Oline..and a better QB...and better WRS...and a better D that is improving every weeks since playing Johnny Football.
You will win on paper every time. We are just a little program in a small state that shouldn’t even be able to compete, but we will. Speed Kills.
Oh yeah, he had 49 yds at the half and we messed up on a 4th and 1 for 75 yd TD. We know a 20 pt loss would be a moral victory for us Pac 12 guys.
DUUUUCKS!
Washington’s Bishop Sanky is the nations leading rusher. Aside from one long run, Oregon kept him under control.
Alabama only has two running backs with more than 40 carries. The next most has just 18.
Marita has a better QB rating than McCarron.
Oregon has 3-5 players faster than Alabama player.
Since playing Johnny Football, Bama has played Colorado State, Ole Miss, Georgia State, and Kentucky. There is no way you can honestly say that schedule is an accurate gauge for an improved defense.
Also keep in mind that Mariota was Oregon’s first choice over Johnny Football. Mariota is bigger and faster than Johnny, and faster than anyone on Alabama’s team.
