Pick the score: Alabama vs Tennessee

[spidermayin]

Well, I think this is going to be high scoring and we'll make a few more explosive plays. Milroe has more experience, so I am giving Bama the slight edge.

Neither team is playing great right now. But I think both teams will have a few explosive plays. The key will be which team can consistently get pressure on the QB and force him to rush his reads. I favor UT in that regard, but I can't pick against the Tide.

37-34, Bama

Roll Tide!

Don’t know the score, but it will be another nail-biter.

 

[BamaMoon]

I'm thinking a lower scoring game. Probably high 20's to low 30's.

I don't think either offense is as good as both fan bases previously thought.

It is hard to pick a score but I think Bama wins by 3pts. I wish it would not be so close though. I'm ready for a stress break. lol.

If we continue to make bad decisions on offense and turn the ball over a couple times.....we lose, possibly by more than 1 score.

If we can't stop Sampson with any sort of consistency and he gets over 150 yards....we lose.

We don't appear to have the mental fortitude to go into an absolute hostile environment and take it to the other team, take the crowd out of it. How do we handle the environment?

Gonna be a fight, hope we get tough.

Biggest concern for me.....they have a good D and we don't run the ball well.

27-24

I like this! I think we need an emotional and physical toughness to reappear in the game. If not, I'm concerned too!

Me seeing folks picking the Vols…

 

[Bruce014]

I am encouraged by Tennessee's anemic showing against Florida.
And while this Alabama team has a lot to prove, both in playmaking and discipline, I think Jalen can make enough big throws to eke out the win:

Game will be played with local high school officiating crew, quite an upgrade from two years ago.
