Title: Re: What will be the line on the Bama vs Vols game Post by: Coach Hank Crisp on October 16, 2011, 06:21:21 PM Alabama line is high but can you blame the books?
Bama's closet game was week 2 at Penn State and still won by 16. Title: Re: What will be the line on the Bama vs Vols game Post by: Jamos on October 16, 2011, 06:26:29 PM They're high but Bama has been scoring a lot of points with a good D, don't think they will lower it any.
Title: Re: What will be the line on the Bama vs Vols game Post by: BAMAWV on October 16, 2011, 06:36:57 PM Interesting. They couldn't quite see giving UTk 4 TDs. If everyone starts loading Bama that'll be the sweetener to balance it back. Move it to 28 or 28.5.

Averaging 39 PPG. Only allowing 7 PPG. Title: Re: What will be the line on the Bama vs Vols game Post by: Chechem on October 16, 2011, 06:42:10 PM I'm surprised it's not 35. We'd better be happy if we win; something like 12-10 (memories of 2009), but most everyone expects something more like 41-6.

Averaging 39 PPG. Only allowing 7 PPG. You're right, it's always been in the past that when you put the reserves in late in the game they are to run the ball and run out the clock. With Bama's running attack being as good as it is, I think the opposing team may want Bama's reserves to throw the ball to keep from running up the score. Title: Re: What will be the line on the Bama vs Vols game Post by: ricky023 on October 16, 2011, 08:45:24 PM I expect a 31.5 spread, but we win by 14 points or so. Why? Because we play the second and third team a lot. I don't expect CNS to run the score up on Coach Dooley because he is a protege'. JMHO. RTR!

I agree with what you say about putting in the reserves but the reserves have been putting up some points as well. There's not as big of a drop off of talent between the starters and reserves as there used to be. Good recruiting!!

There's not as big of a drop off of talent between the starters and reserves as there used to be. Good recruiting!! As you bring this point up your right. Most of our guys that leave could start somewhere else. Our third team defense is going to be reckoned with in a couple of years and I don't worry now about what we will have then. RTR! Title: Re: What will be the line on the Bama vs Vols game Post by: 2Stater on October 16, 2011, 09:09:21 PM Just look at last night against Ole Miss, the reserves came in and played about as well as the starters. Bama is deep. It will be hard to keep the score down on anyone. Bray is out for UT and after a possible 14-0 halftime score, Bama will wear them down in the 2nd half. It will be big again. I'm guessing about 45-7.
