Alabama's first true OOC road game in forever


Sep 9, 2022, 8:31 AM

and they lucked up and got a nooner ...

Actually even better than a nooner ... 11 AM er ...

Surprised the prime time TV selection committee passed on this game.

Bama at night in Austin ?? That would have been gold.

Texas has the same chances of winning as Icelandic banks had of avoiding financial ruin in 2008.

Texas is 1-7 in their OOC openers since 2014 or so. (None counted in 2020)

That include BEATDOWNS by Maryland, BYU, UCLA, Cal, and Arky. Thank goodness for UTEP or they would not have won anything before their conference started.

Only win was against a top 10 (finished 4-8) Notre Dame but then followed it up with a lost to Cal (5-7_

At least Bama has opened with major opponents at neutral sites (mostly Atlanta and Arlington TX) like Clemson, Michigan and Wisconsin most years during the Saban era. Gotta give them credit for that at least.

Florida is the worst when it comes to leaving their state to play an OOC P5 team. Once or twice in the past decade plus. They finally get one next yr at Utah.

Bama is going to beat Texas like they stole something.***
