Alabama 110th in returning production?! I know they recruit and are deep as ****, but ****... we get them game 1 on a neutral? Aside from an injured King, you couldn’t ask for it to set up any better.
A lot of new coaches too. If there’s ever a time to beat Saban and Bama it’d be now, but I’m not holding my breath.Alabama 110th in returning production?!

We are 17 point dogs. That works out to Bama having a ~90% chance of winning.Saban has never lost a week 1 neutral site game and wins by an average of 21 in those contests. He’s like 10-0. Idc what they lost, they will be well prepared and will have more talent than us at pretty much every position, experienced or not.
Also, not for nothing, but Atlanta is “neutral” for them in name only. It’s like that year we played Notre Dame on a “neutral field” in Chicago.10-1
This. Living in Atlanta for the past 7 yrs. I can say with certainty that Bama fans are well represented and outnumbered only by UGA fans.Also, not for nothing, but Atlanta is “neutral” for them in name only. It’s like that year we played Notre Dame on a “neutral field” in Chicago.
See, if someone said that same thing about Miami, we'd be certain it was jinxed and we're destined to lose.Saban has never lost a week 1 neutral site game and wins by an average of 21 in those contests.

Powers is a tout, but he knows CFB as well as anyone out there. Does it 365 days a year.
Notable:

-double digit favorites in every other game except 1 (-6 @ Pitt)
