We just beat the team everyone says that had the best shot at beating us. I still think the next two game will be almost as tough. Gimpy Dareus too is trouble enough. So who think we'll be undefeated once again in the SEC?
Who thinks we'll be undefeated now in the SEC?

I think you will find that there will be a lot of banged up players. Its gonna be a brutal run... 
I figured before the season everyone in the SEC would have a loss this yr. Hope I'm wrong with Bama, but I'm still sticking to that predictions.
Was proud of this Bama team today, and I think the defense grew-up some in that 2nd half. Offense had a bad 1st half, but they have to carry this team better than they did that 1st half, to have any chance of winning them all.
Off to the next tough SEC game.......
:BigA: ROLL TIDE :BigA:

Schedule is too tough to go undefeated. Just hope the lose(s) come from eastern division opponents so we can still make a run at the SEC Championship and hopefully make it back to the BCS game.
This game humbled me. I was not worried going in but now I see what others were saying about our youth on defense. They really grew up this game I think. It's not going to be easy these next two games.
I love my Tide, but I don't think they will be able to run the table again....just too many good teams left that will be just as jacked as Arky was today to play us.
Agree...its possible of course, but its going to be a treacherous climb in the next few weeks for this team to go undefeated.
Guys, I think we might just pull it off. That D has just grew up before our eyes. Will they still make mistakes? Yes, but they've found a way to weather the storm. They stepped up. I think they are about to get better. We played the worst game I think we've played since the Utah game. Uncharacteristic turnovers, blown coverages and we still win? I think they (the D) are going to be a strength now.
I have said (along with others) that only two teams have the talent to beat us. LSU and Florida. I still think that. Win both those and we are 12-0 on the way to 14-0. That was the problem Arky had, not enough talent across the board.
PS. I think we do win both of those.

Watch what happens now. Despite the fact that everyone of the experts predicted a 4-7 point win. We'll now get criticized for not being as good as we should be. Even though we beat the #10 team in their place with bad officiating.
We played a horrible first half, and still won the game.
On a side note........their generous 1st Qtr spot gave them 3 pts. our HORRIBLE 1st Qtr spot, cost us 3 or 7

I think Bama goes undefeated. Nobody can make a secondary look silly like Arkansas can. This game is exactly what Bama needed. They won a hard fought game on the road. They didn't seem focused or intense in the 1st half. They have a lot of film for the secondary to study and learn from.
What I learned today, the Bama coaches were trying to force the ball down the field too much. No defense in the country can line up toe to toe and stop their rushing attack. Hand it to running backs and let them break tackles and move the pile. Throw those short passes to thebacks. Play good D
USC east will implode before the year is over, thay have balance but can't match Bama.
Florida - not impressed
LSU - who knows with that clown
Auburn - never mind

I wouldn't worry about that. All the recaps I've seen on ESPN make it look like soundly thumped us, and you did in the 2nd half when it mattered. I expect Arkansas to drop from the polls and we can go back to hearing about how great Boise is.

After watching us take over this game the way we did in the 2nd half I feel better about our chances of winning them all. They grew up a lot tonight. And CNS and staff will use this one as a coaching clinic for our young defense.
Let's just say I feel a lot better about our chances of going undefeated in the SEC now than I did at halftime.

I do not believe we will go undefeated in the SEC. I just hope the loss isn't to Auburn at the end of the season when we're banged up, exhausted and perhaps looking past them to the SECCG.
I say we'll drop one to either UF, USC or LSU. Not that any of them are more talented or better-coached than Bama; it's just for the same reasons we got schooled in the first half today. Young defense, apt to make mental errors and get out of position and give up the big play.
Still, I think we make it to the SECCG.

I doubt that. Regardless of how it happened, the Hogs stood toe-to-toe with the #1 team and fought hard. No shame in losing by 4 to #1. Depending on what happens above and right below them, I don't see them dropping much, if at all, this week.
IMO No way you guys drop very much after this game. You took #1 to the limit. The pollsters will show you some respect this week.
