No Bryce, no win against Tennessee

I think he will be better than 80%………. Bet we haven’t heard the whole story about what he’s done in practice and he will probably get the pain shots as well

I think so too. If there's no structural damage as Coach Saban says, with current medical know-how, he should be fine to play a game, take a week off and go beat LSU too.

If we get by Tennessee we still have Miss.St. before the bye week, so we may need Bryce for that one also since Miss. St. is scoring a lot of points as well. If we beat UT then Miss. St. becomes a potential "trap" game.

Typical

Tennessee still plays thug ball. I'm not surprised.

They some snitches.

Yep. And considering that it was during the Dubose years, so did Louisiana Tech twice in a row.

Two of those wins were against Stallings teams.(95,96)

Okay. I see what you mean. Either way, the Vols' 7-year streak against us came at a very weak time for our team.

I am pulling for MSU today for this reason. Alabama's players will take them seriously as a one loss team.

Key to the game IMO is if Bama can play like they’ve practiced. I just like the matchups - Bama has the 3rd ranked rushing OFFENSE in the country; somebody please tell me the last time the running game was that strong. And against two stout rushing defenses, they had two of their best games.
Tennessee has a “bend don’t break” scoring defense against teams with, at best, mediocre offenses. Their pass defense is at the bottom in the country. You can’t make up for that lack of productivity (likely from talent and ability levels) with emotion for 60 minutes - you just can’t.

Yup, and dicipline. Stop all the stupid mistakes and penalties. Our turnover margin is horrible this year.
