Alabama vs. USC Discussion
- Thread starter NationalTitles18
- Start date
Our questions about Bama are these:
- Will the new QB (Bateman?) be ready to go against a pretty fast defense?
Yes - but you will most likely see two QBs
- Scarborough is a beast but is he Derek Henry?
No - he is certainly not Henry but I would be more worried about Damien Harris and a True Frosh running through a dominant O-Line
- Pruitt is a good DC but he's replacing a legend - how will that affect Bama's D?
We will be affected but nothing you will be able to detect
- Will Kiffin try to get too cute with the offense? He's obviously looking forward to crushing USC.
You will see a conservative offense for most of the game until we smell blood
If I were a betting man I would give up the 10 points and go with the favorite in this one. Good luck to you guys and look forward to the game.

Southern Cal scares me; their skills guys are sick fast, and I think their D is going to be much improved. I think Bama is definitely better but the matchup is scary for the first game. Key is if Bama can run it. Usually is though.
The scheme is exactly what Alabama does well. They have talented skill guys, but I'm not overly worried about it.

They're mostly pro-style in nature. They need Max Browne to be a hot quarterback in his first start if our defense is anything like it has been over the past 8 seasons. Not very many pro-style passers have won against us over that time period and when they did that quarterback played his best game. I think we'll see their backup who narrowly lost out on the competition apparently. He has a bit more of a dual-threat profile and they may try to change things up on us to steal points if it is a close affair.
Hi Folks, Trojan fan here...I have to be honest, as a fan of football, this is the single most intriguing match up I can recall in recent years. MH is arguably the best DB in the country, and through my cardinal colored glasses, I believe JuJU is the best WR in the country this year - this is going to be a fantastic battle to watch.
Really looking forward to this game, praying for no injuries to either team.
By the way, I've really enjoyed reading the posts here while waiting to get approved - great conversations. Is it Sept 3 yet???
tj3333, these are money games for players like Hump and JuJu. The NFL scouts are going to watch each of them closely since it is likely Hump may cover no one better than JuJu and vice versa.
Honest question: when was the last pro-style offense to do well against our defense?

I was reading that Max Browne has basically no mobility. He's like a statue in the pocket. I don't see how their offense can have much success other than just chucking up some deep passes and hope something good happens..

From what we've been told, he can move around in the pocket pretty well. However, he's not going to beat anyone with his feet. He reminds me a little bit of Leinart with his size and delivery. The trick here is developing quick-hitting plays. If he sits back there for too long he's going to get killed. Here are some very limited highlights against dog-meat competition and the spring game. Hard to take away too much from this.

What's everyone going to be doing with parking at AT&T Stadium? The Rangers will be playing an afternoon game that same day as the kickoff and the baseball stadium is pretty close to the football stadium.

Unless this game goes into 5 overtimes, there is NO WAY USC scores 38 on this defense. Are they out of their minds?
