on the Bama boards, and almost zero concern. Contrast that with post after post on here from sissy fans that have been fooled by a bad game against Kentucky, and listen to too many podcasts from guys that have been fooled as well.

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but these Dawgs are hell. WE are the best program in the nation. WE are the ones with back-to-back natties and 1 single loss since then.

Do we have a Bama problem? Or do we have a Nick Saban problem? I think that’s looking for an excuse. We have no problem other than playing a great team that has been at the top of college football, until now, for over a decade. Have a loss to Bama? Yeah, get in line. So does the rest of the country. But, let’s not perpetuate the chasing of ghosts and keep building Bama up to be this unbeatable behemoth. It’s just simply not true.

They are nothing more to us, this week, than the next team on the schedule. I’m not ignoring their dominance over us (and the rest of CFB) through the years. They’ve absolutely owned us and you can’t deny that. But just because something has been, doesn’t mean it will always be.

The chipping away of the Alabama dynasty continues this weekend. Beating them once won’t convince us, nor anyone else that the witch is dead, so stop acting like our rivalry rides on this game. But we can make a big statement this weekend and I expect that’s how it’ll unfold.

All the pieces come together this weekend. Not in perfection (there will be some ugly), but in a complimentary way and we put the world on notice that we are coming for that title.

Dawgs get a defensive/special teams score
ETN scores two (with 107yds)
Carson throws 1 (24/30 for 210)
Woodring knocks 2 through (41yds and 23yds)
I think we land 5 sacks
Dawgs 34 -27
