West vs East...Tide vs Dawgs

cloverleaf · Sep 28, 2015

Alabama travels to Georgia as a dog for the first time in 72 games. During that span, Bama's been a double-digit favorite in all but 17 of those 72 games. Not only is this a big game for each team, its also big for each conference. Even though it has been awhile since the Tide was an underdog...they are 6-0 ATS in this situation versus an undefeated team. Interesting stat on Georgia: the Dogs are 0-6-1 in a third straight home game. (South Carolina, Southern, now Bama).

I like UGA to win a close one, but will be very tempted to tease Bama to over a touchdown dog.

Good luck Harry....but beware of Alabama's defense against a pocket passer.

Georgia's QB is NO threat running....perfect for Saban!

Perfect weather forecast for the game tomorrow afternoon if you like smash mouth football. Cool and rainy.

High level RB's and physical OLs provide matchups of strength vs. strength....

....none of this sissy backyard pitch and catch stuff.

I'm betting on Turnovers, GA Turnovers, may be weather related GA Turnovers...I did all I could to stay out of this one but in the end I lacked the Discipline to avoid joining the what I expect to be Large Crowd on 'Bama here. Complete Betrayal of Strategy, this has got to work or its Disaster.

I'm not the biggest CFB follower but I like Bama.

Think their D comes to play vs Chubb and they make Lambert beat them.

Yeah I am the furthest thing ever from a Alabama fan but I teased them to +8.5 in this here game. Just hope it's a barnburner.

Chubb has 12 straight 100-yard rushing games, one shy of Herschel Walker's school record.

Since Saban arrived at Alabama in 2007 only 10 players have rushed for 100 yards or more on The Crimson Tide.

Storyline: No, really: it still won't be time to bury the Alabama "dynasty" Saturday, even with a loss......
