Fans aren't scared of competition. Why would fans be scared? They aren't playing, and nothing in their world changes the next day.
If you don't think or believe the likely outcome of this game is a beat down by Bama, I don't know what to say. They've been doing it to everyone and we get run over by UNC at the tail end of the season. ***** slapped by Clemson whenever we face them. Mediocre teams are a struggle while all Bama bodies teams on the reg.
That's all last year or beyond. It's a new season. We've been talking about next year forever. We're getting better, but talking up a win against the best program in the land for a decade and some change, that's not scared, that's based on odds.
Clemson moment wasn't too big for us. They were just better athletically, more talented, and better coached. We used to be that way and maybe we will be again. Gotta show me though as I don't fall for the preseason hype.
