Is Bama's D that good, or have they not played anyone

with an O, except for UW, who was probably overrated as well?
Either way, I'm optimistic, which scares me haha.

Their defense is scary good, I believe. But, I still think we can move the ball on them. Key is limiting turnovers and negative plays, IMO

Ole Miss (with the best passing comparison to Clemson) scored 43 points in Tuscaloosa. Had around 500 yards of offense.
The rest of their SEC schedule had little to no passing game.

I think their D is plenty good, but the other side of that question is how good have the O's that they've faced been?
Huskies being the most recent example. Who thinks the Huskie's O is as good as the Tiger's O? I don't.
With just over 1 min remaining in the 1st half yesterday the score was 10-7, then Browning threw a pick 6. Entered the 4th qtr with the score 17-7. 0-0 3rd qtr
Anybody think Huskie's D is as good as ours? I don't.
Bama's D-line & LB's look awfully good to me. We'll know one way or the other in a week.
Don't turn the ball over

they would find that Offensive numbers of those teams that played Bama are not all that impressive.
Someone did a really nice analysis of who Ohio St played. The realization was that while Ohio State's Defense statistics looked great, they hadn't played hardly anyone with an offensive pulse.
I'm willing to bet a similar analysis would uncover the same thing with Bama.
Heck, even Ole Miss had them on the ropes again this year.

They haven't played an offense with a pulse all season long. Clemson rolls easily over the tide.
