Summary:
Alabama is back to steamrolling teams after a scare against their nemesis Ole Miss. The Crimson Tide are one of the few teams in college football that are a top 15 offensive and defensive team. They are nearly impossible to run against but Ole Miss may have exposed a flaw in their pass defense. Alabama is clearly the better team in this one it only becomes a matter of how big they win in this one.
