This is what the score should have been. I made a little wager that this would be the final score. Had it turned out as I predicted, I would have traded my S500 2000 for an S550 2014 model. The only thing Alabama had to do was score another touchdown, which would have been easy because they were in the red zone with less than a minute to play but they took a knee.
Desmond Howard, who is one of the regulars on The Game Day show, predicted that Ole Miss would beat Alabama. He knew that was not realistic; he said that in case a miracle happened then he would have been a hero.
Alabama is better than most people think and they are going to improve every week. They have some powerful freshmen and sophomores that most people have never heard of, but you will hear from on Saturday at Alabama’s Homecoming game.
They have two serious games left to play – LSU and the SEC playoffs – which in all probability, if they get past LSU, they will have to play Georgia or South Carolina. Then for the National Championship, there’s Oklahoma, Ohio State and Oregon. If I were Nick Saban, I’d rather play Ohio State, second choice Oklahoma, but Lord knows I would not like to play Oregon.
For the first time, Auburn has a window of opportunity. If by chance they can beat Ole Miss on Saturday, I do believe they will move up to No. 25 in the national polls. Their chances of going to a bowl game would be excellent. I still believe they will go to a minor bowl game regardless. They are definitely going to win at least six games, and have a chance to win eight.
Alabama beat Ole Miss badly. Old Miss is already playing a lot of freshmen and several of them will not be able to play Saturday. Auburn’s chances of winning this game is greater than 50 percent.
