How bad would Bama beat UW
I had this discussion with a A&M fan right after they lost @ Bama...
How bad would Bama beat UW in a playoff/Bowl game that took place in January?
If UW stayed undefeated I would guess Vegas would start the line and have Bama at about -8. Let the money roll and maybe the spread would get to -10 with the east coast money.
How do all of us doog fans see it? Are we okay hanging with Bama for a half then getting plungered second half for a final score 34-17?
Just wanted some discussion because the Pac12 is a fucking dumpster fire.... UW could go undefeated and the only test they had was a OT Win @ Zona....

Bama does pass the eye test (although I think Michigan is the best team in the country).
That said we match up well with Bama. I don't think their QB can beat us with his arm. Play the run and stack the box. Their coordinator is Kiffen who loves to get creative with his play calling and out-smart himself (as does Sark). Luckily for them Saban loves to run the ball.
That said put eight in the box and I have confidence in our corners playing good coverage on the outside.
I am pretty confident our defense can keep it a low scoring game (I don't think we will move the ball well on offense though) and I think we ultimately lose by around 10.
24-10 or something
It would be a plunger whether the score reflected it or not.
Bama's defense is the best in college football. They have the only defense worthy of the "elite" label that is so casually thrown around, and their special teams unit is outstanding, maybe even elite. Their offense is overshadowed by their defense and special teams, but it's much better than simply serviceable and they have a "slam dunk first ballot" college hall of fame head coach. Any team can lose a game, but these guys are the least likely to do so regardless of who they play.
UW has a very good football team, but is not elite in any phase. Bama beat aTm 33 - 14, I could see them containing the Huskies offense and scoring enough to win rather easily, say 34 -17.

Alabama would have 3 losses in the pac, and likely 2-3 in an average big12. Pull your pussylips out your eyeballs and watch a few football games. Your wasting away on the "friends" reruns
The bullshit above is the lines with michigan or ohio state. Talk about two teams which are fucking overrated or just as untested as UW. Neither of those teams scare me in the least. Teh ville' or clemson are much more of an issue than either of those stupid teams. Christ, ohio state lost to penn state and has a QB who can't throw the ball anymore.
Then Browning shows up and Brownsocks is benched and the Huskies outscore Bama 21-0 in the 4th quarter to shock the world and bring home our 4th National Championship
