Alabama needs a prayer
Tide can make the CFP but needs help
Alabama has now lost two games this season, marking the first time it has had a pair of losses before November since 2007. The Crimson Tide suffered a 24-17 defeat at Tennessee this past weekend, which saw UA commit 15 penalties, go 3-of-14 on third down and turn the ball over twice in its second loss in its last three outings, this season and with the Vols.
The Tide will look to bounce back this weekend when it plays host to a Missouri team that eked out a win over Auburn the last time out. BamaOnLine staff members Charlie Potter, Blake Byler and Jimmy Stein discuss this weekend’s football game and talk a little UA hoops.
The Alabama-related topics discussed by the guys include:
– Final thoughts on the Crimson Tide’s loss at Tennessee.
– Jalen Milroe’s struggles in Knoxville; what needs to change?
– Missouri’s passing attack, led by quarterback Brady Cook.
– The Tigers defense and how it compares to past opponents.
– What do they need to see from Alabama this week?
– Tide Hoops’ first exhibition was a success; what’s on deck?
