That was NOT what I expected. Their solid receivers vs our inexperienced secondary. And after the first throw, I felt I was in for a long night.

And then.....the next 59 minutes of football happened.
I was right there with you. I picked us to win 55-27, which means that I expected us to pull away and win easily, but I didn't think we would win that easily, especially after their first play.

Ditto. I wasn’t expecting this especially after the initial TD

I did get the margin of victory correct with my usual, in memoriam pick of 55-0. :biggrin2:

It is gonna take a defense with NFL talent across the board to make Tua earn it. If you're deficient anywhere in the secondary, he's gonna find ya. Elite pressure and/or elite coverage is your only hope.

I may be a delusional biased fan but I'm pretty sure we would beat any team in the country by 20+ if we were to play them today.

We looked very good tonight. Offense, defense, and mostly even special teams.

This is such a great time to be a Bama fan!!!!

I saw some folks wondering why Harris wasn't getting more carries. I would assume it is because of this tidbit:

[FONT=&quot]That was par for the night: Alabama’s first 7 TD drives took, in order: 1 minute and 10 seconds; 1:09; 0:59; 2:26; 0:50; 1:44; and 0:54.[/FONT]

Hard to build up carries when we're 4 deep at tailback and the game is in garbage time by halftime.

I think Auburn’s Steele curtain defense will be the only challenge that Tua will get during the regular season. Outside of that matchup, i think we will pretty much be able to name the score in every game.

LSU's defense in Baton Rouge likely at night will be a test

If LSU can move the ball against them, we should move the ball better

Lets worry about A&M's defense first, aight!!!! LSU looked better then I thought they would. Burrow is in for a long night if he stays in the pocket like he did today.

128-10 combined score in last 2 meetings. WOW! Really impressed with the defense tonight. Our 4 man pass rush able to pressure the QB and stop the run. Can't beat us when that happens.
