I thought it would be fun to trace Bama's rise in the "bowl projections" on ESPN (Mark Schlabach)...It has been a magical ride :-)

Rutgers vs. Alabama = PapaJohns.com >>> PRE-SEASON
Wisconsin vs. Alabama = Outback >>> WEEK 1
Illinois vs. Alabama = Outback >>> WEEK 2
Wisconsin vs. Alabama = Outback >>> WEEK 3
Texas vs. Alabama = Cotton >>> WEEK 4
Oklahoma vs. Alabama = BCS National Championship Game >>> WEEK 5
Alabama vs. Brigham Young = Allstate Sugar >>> WEEK 6
Texas vs. Alabama = BCS National Championship Game >>> WEEK 7
Alabama vs. Utah = Allstate Sugar >>> WEEK 8
Alabama vs. Utah = Allstate Sugar >>> WEEK 9
Alabama vs. Texas = Allstate Sugar >>> WEEK 10

...
Don't have the week 11 up yet...But, if I was a betting man...I would bet Mark Schlabach will say...Since no one says we will beat Florida...

Alabama vs. Utah (or Big East "chump") = Allstate Sugar >>> WEEK 11

But, nobody gave us a shot against Miami in 92' :-) RTR!!!

And that's why you play the game...

That's interesting to look at. You can see how we "jumped" after big wins - and when the idea that Florida was a threat to us - kicked in.
