Is the SEC this bad or is Bama this good?

Bama looks untouchable. I hope they get brought back down to earth in the CFP.

Very doubtful. They have their "usual" act together now.

Bama has played 1 team with a winning record in last 6 games

That was vs a 5-4 Auburn team that lost to the chickens.
Same media narrative as 2018 when they had best team of all-time.

I’m afraid this Bama team might be for real.

He’ll get yards on anyone.
I think the key to beating them is getting pressure on Jones.

Bama’s opponents’ record this season is 41-43. The SEC is nothing special this year, it just seems more.

The SEC, as a conference, will be .500 this year so Bama's competition is pretty much right in line with what would be expected.

My argument may not have been completely sound, but my point is that the SEC is not as special as ESPN wants us to believe. You’re an SEC fan, so maybe you can’t see it. ACC is a good conference, 2nd to SEC at worst this year, but the gap is not big.
We’ll see in the playoffs, and not denying Bama is good.

They’re one of the 4 best teams in the country. I researched it.

And the best DL in CFB. And a much better OL

Not many areas this team is as good as the 2018 team. Trevor and Travis are better with two more years under their belts, but that's about it.
DL - 2018 by a mile LBs - 2018. Too many injuries for 2020 team plus 2018 had Simmons Safeties - 2018 CBs - probably close but I'll take 2018
OL - 2018 by a mile again QB - 2020 but only bc of more experience RB - same as above WR - 2018 by a mile TE - 2020

Think about it. This is the 3rd year in a row the SEC has given the world the best football team in the history of the game.
I'm hoping those 3 great teams go 1-2 when it really counts.

They may or may not be that good. What I am about to say is simply historical data one can go back and verify!
But, "We Have Seen This Before In Ye Ole Mighty SEC Where Alabama Blows Out Everybody"! In 2018 they won by an average of 31 ppg and were called the best offense of All Time!
That team got beaten by 4 TDs and if not for Mercy being shown it would have been 5 to a team from another conference! In short, it's hard to say. But, history points me in the direction of perhaps there being some SEC teams that are "as usual" overrated that Bama is beating up on!
They still might actually be that good though! Can't rule that out.

This Bama team is great no doubt about it! We have Trevor and if the online can give him time I think we can score 40+ and that may be just enough!
And we have Venables!
