I think Ole Miss is a legit top 25, ditto Arkie and UT, but the top 25 doesn't really matter.

Ole Miss' losses are to Florida State, Alabama and Arkansas. Two of those on the road. Ole Miss has A&M, LSU, Auburn left. They'll probably go 7-5 but could've went 10-2 in the ACC, B1G West, Pac 12, Big XII.Comment

Yeah, exactly. We beat them by 5, they lost a big lead against FSU, and there isn't a dime's worth of difference between Ole Miss and Arkie. In fact, I think Ole Miss wins that game at home.
Similarly, I have no problem with Wisconsin being top 10 even with 2 losses."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

The East isn't great. Despite getting blown out, the Vols aren't horrible and Florida is okay. The rest are hot garbage.Originally posted by WM Wolverine View Post"The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

Alabama opens as a 16.5 fav against TAMU."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

...... and I suppose you are taking TAMU and the points and even if that spread were somehow reduced by 16.5 points to make it a pick-em, you'd still take TAMU. Do I have that right?Originally posted by AlabamAlum View Post
Let's just add this to the large number of ridiculous predictions regarding Alabama's 2016 football season you've made so far.

Jeff,
USC, I lost.
Western Kentucky, I won.
Ole Miss, I won.
Kent State, no wager. Guessed 40-0. It was 48-0.
Kentucky, I won.
Arkie, I lost.
Tenn, I lost.
So, 3-3. Arkie was closer than the score. But a loss is a loss. No crying in betting.
I think we should beat TAMU. But, no, I do not think we will cover at -16.5.
Tell you what. I will take TAMU and the points. You take Bama -16.5. User pics for a month."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

-7.5?
lol, that is NOT the line.
So, like me, you don't think Bama will cover?"The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

And, no, I will not shave NINE points off the line- that would be foolish. Heh. Nice try, though."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

No, I think Alabama will beat TAMU.
In my post I was taking you to task for predicting Alabama was not going to beat TAMU, very much like you ridiculously said that Bama would lose to USC, ARKI and Tennessee .
You've consistently underestimated Alabama's defense and team efficiency against supposedly tough opponents. It's your team, man..... and bragging about being correct on Kentucky and Kent State, lol.
At least talent makes some sense even thou it is only a little.Last edited by Jeff Buchanan; October 17, 2016, 07:29 AM.Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished.

You are incorrect. I have predicted that Bama should win against TAMU. And, no, I did NOT say Bama would lose to Arkie and Tennessee - just that they wouldn't cover. Honestly, I thought USC would be much tougher (so did many others). And, anyone who watched the Arkansas game knows that the cover was because of D/ST scores. While a part of the game, it certainly isn't something that one can bank on.Originally posted by Jeff Buchanan View Post
Anyway, I think Bama should win. I think the -16.5 line is too high. But what do I know? I'm only 3-3 on my Bama bets this year. I was 7-2 last year, so I have certainly dropped in my betting accuracy.Last edited by AlabamAlum; October 17, 2016, 12:08 PM."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment

Jeff,
Are we on at -16.5?
My book has the line at -17 now, but I will honor my -16.5. Heck, I will sweeten it and give you the bet at a flat -16."The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is sometimes hard to verify their authenticity." -Abraham LincolnComment
