CFN: Alabama vs Miami Prediction, Game Preview

[crimsonaudio]

Miami might be the second-best team in the ACC by the time the season is done – or at least in the top four – but even this rebuilt Alabama team is at a whole other level.

The Tide offense will be terrific, but it’ll be the defense that steals the show in Atlanta.

I'll take it!

 

[Evil Crimson Dragon]

I’ll take that as well....... I’d love a beat down of Miami

 

[BamaDMD]

It's kind of hard to believe that it has been 30 years since we last met. I'm getting old....

FWIW — the betting line is creeping up. Started at 17.5. Consensus is now 18.5, with one of the houses at 19.5.

The current Over / Under is 62, which is interestingly down from an open of 62.5. In combination with the 18.5 consensus line, that’s saying two things:
1. Consensus prediction of score is now roughly 41-21.
2. Opening consensus prediction was roughly 39 - 23

Which is saying the betting public thinks both our offense and defense will be better vs. the U than they initially thought.

As long as we win by more than 18 I'll be good.........

 

[CrimSonami]

I'll take it as well but I think we'll need a ST or a defensive score to make the O/U spread. I don't expect Miami to contribute much to that because CNS has just had too much time to prepare for this game.

Love this stat about season openers:

Nick Saban’s teams have faced Michigan, Virginia Tech, West Virginia, Wisconsin, USC, Florida State, Louisville, Duke, and Missouri.

9-0, all wins by double-digits, and the combined score of those nine victories … 351-113, or an average of 39-12.5.

As long as we win by more than 18 I'll be good.........

 

[Windsortide]

Love to see that final score. I want to see pressure coming in waves with great DLine depth all night!

 

[BamaInCummingGA]

TE, I got a bet going on with a UGA fan on the score. So I hope we beat them so bad they want to shut the program down.......lol

 

[GrayTide]

Sounds about right, thanks Brad.

I'll take it!

Now it is officially (kinda sorta) football season.

I predict that we will see #31 make at least one ridiculous play, like tackling both QB and RB simultaneously at the read mesh point.

 

[BamaMoon]

I'd take 34-13, just for old times sake.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

I'd take 34-13, just for old times sake.

I would rather have 341-3.

 

[BamaMoon]

I would rather have 341-3.

Let's just go for 223-0. Georgia Tech doesn't deserve the distinction for greatest beatdown!

I was just trying to keep the same numbers for the OCD people.

 

[JayBama_in_PCOLA]

Well, here we go!

I’ll take that too. BAMA will be on a mission once again. Lots of star power for BAMA too. Plus, I would love to mess with one of my best friends about this one. BAMA big!

I was in the Navy, on a Boomer, out at sea. Got the game score via a message blast. When I got home a few months later, watched it on a VHS tape. Teague, made some great plays...

I still have that tape!!!!
