Alabama - 28 BIG
Saban angry with his defense after allowing 31 to Arky... sloppy last week, this week the kids on D will be riled up. Some will be fighting to keep their starting positions with hungry talented 2nd stringers (4*'s) getting into the game. Waves of talent attacking Missouri offense. Ouch.
Bama has Tennessee next so they will not be looking ahead.
MU has future NFL draftee (1st round?) QB Lock but he's been a tad off, and Bama will figure a way to focus on him.
Missouri has mediocre D, could not deal with mediocre So Carolina offense with backup QB, this is the best Alabama offense, maybe ever.
To boot, Missouri also a bit banged up.
Not being snarky — can you even make the team at Alabama as a 4* recruit?[
Most of the team are 4*'s, maybe 50? And a dozen-fifteen 5*'s. Depends on the rating entity you use Scouts, ESPN, etc.
I was pointing out that the defense has 4* athletes galore coming in on the bench poised to prove themselves now that Saban has called the defense out.
Last week they coasted, on the road, knew they would win.
Know they will win this week, but are under the gun fighting for starting jobs, are at home, will put on a show, take no prisoners.
Missouri has no 5*s, a few 4*s, and mostly 3*'s .
South Carolina put up 37 against Missouri last week...
