Serious Question for the student of college football...

So I was looking at the schedule for Alabama and the next three games will be a serious test for them. They have Arkansas, Tennessee, and Texas A&M in a row, no off week. All three teams are ranked in the top 25. What's the chance that Alabama comes out of the next three weeks undefeated? I say that they will most likely lose one of those games but not all three. I don't think Arkansas has the horses to get it done but will play them close. I think Tennessee will let Alabama get by them late in the 4th quarter but after taking a pounding two weeks in a row I think Alabama has a good shot at getting upset at home by A&M. What say you?

Bama finally has a QB with a pulse. They win all 3.***

I agree, or at least A&M will be the only serious test. Hogs

It will be pretty good being that the 3 teams Bama will play are all over ranked!!! That is how they keep Bama at #1 year in and year out!!!

That may be true for UT and ARK but I think A&M is about where they should be.

I'm not a student, more of a 'fan' of college football BUT I am of the opinion that while (imho)Bama is not as good as they were last year, they are still better than those three, and I think they will win all three.
I'm thinking this may be the year that LSU plays the spoiler and beats Bama on 5 November!
At least that is what I'm HOPING happens, because (yeah, yeah, the team can't look ahead or presume, but I can!) WHEN we make the CFP, there is a VERY GOOD chance I can go to a game in Atlanta. If it's the game in Phoenix, then there's a VERY GOOD chance I can not go. And if Alabama is No 1, I don't see us getting the game in Atlanta.
GO TIGERS!!!!!!

Prediction: They glide through the next two weeks. Arkansas might hang tough for a few quarters but it'll get away from them late.
Tennessee will get worked. They're just not very good and I think they'll be coming off of a loss this weekend.
A&M: No idea. It could be a good game but I haven't watched them play much this year. Maybe they pull it out but I don't think it will be because of the previous two weeks taking their toll on Bama.

Out of those three the only team with the talent to beat them is A&M. Bama also tends to have a let down game at home each season. If I was putting money on it I would say they win all three but A&M is the game where I expect it to be close. If history tells us anything A&M will lose to Tenn this week, then beat Bama and drop a second game to Ole Miss to make sure Bama is still in the championship.
