Think I saw betting lines showing Alabama would be favored by two scores over every single team in the country. Ohio State was the only one that kept it out of double digits at 9.5, so yay?

Edit: here it was

I hope it never happens again, that was pretty much bullshit. Even though Alabama plays only 8 game schedules, 50% of the SEC had their bye games the week before we played them. And that was not counting FCS teams.

Duke this year and such wouldn't make much difference. It would look better on the resume, but outside a few teams - they aren't winning.

I was thinking more competitive, it may have actually been close in the 2nd quarter... and a final score of 38-14 instead of 69-7

Justin Fields comes out to start the second half of the SECCG and leads a comeback win for Georgia.

But if Auburn beats Georgia, I can guarantee you they beat Bama too. Since Saban got to Bama, Auburn has never beaten UGA without beating Bama in the same year.

It's not a coincidence that it usually happens when they get us both at The Barn where they obviously cheat like crazy.

Bama won't be spotting y'all a half by starting a RB at QB this time.

First two times it happened, they played for a natty. Third time was last year and would have made the playoffs had UGA not spanked that ass in the rematch.

"Tennessee" would have been a reasonable substitute for "Potato Salad" in this poll.

But seriously, odds are high that Bama does drop a game this season. Only undefeated season they've had with Saban was 09. The undefeated regular seasons other than 09 haven't ended well for them.

08, 16.

And we haven't had an undefeated national champion since 2013 when FSU did it.

Yeah it's college football so shit can and will happen.

Got close in 2016, but lost to Clemson in the last game. 1 play away.

Mississippi State. Only team that can score with Bama IMO.

Edit* just saw you has UGA listed. I'm strictly talking regular season.
Bama's added the one thing they haven't really had. And that makes them double tough. Who'd have ever thunk Saban would be willing to get in a shootout? We know he doesn't like 'em.
