What Are the Keys to the Game for an Alabama Win?

[Saban4Ever]

Keys:
1. Don't turn the ball over
2. Get at least one turnover on defense
3. OLine has to protect Ty and give him time to throw
4. Run the ball decently and stop their run game to a certain extent so they can't win the time of possession by a large margin
5. We need good field position and for the punter and kicker to do their jobs well
6. Don't have many penalties and certainly not at critical times

Here is a question. Why is the team ranked #17 in the AP poll only 2.5 point underdogs to the #5 team on their home field. Either Vegas has a problem or there is a problem with the polls.

Cause, while UGA is 3-0 they have looked beatable and while Alabama lost to FSU and got punished by the pollsters, FSU loss now doesn't look as bad on paper and Bama has the talent to do what UT did to UGA. JMO.

Good point on #6

This game would be a good time to break that streak of games having more penalties than the opponent.

So the polls are flawed

So the polls are flawed

And there are stories about rogue posters doing stupid stuff too in their rankings!

So the polls are flawed

And this early. YES!

There has to be some semblance of a running attack or we Lose. Simple as that.

Something we have not done all year and minus Milroe it's been 3 years.

Probably have to keep this from changing

Be able to run the ball and be able to stop them from running the ball.

Alabama needs to protect Ty and pressure Stockton.
