This is how I look at it as well. Region 8 teams brought no fans and the home crowd is down as well those games. Going 1a with a speculated 7-8 team region will leave fewer non region games to be scheduled. Even though some will be blowouts I think the regional matchups will bring a few more fans.
I think the sophomore 51 has the ability to step up next season and center the ball well for the Tide. In my opinion he did well this season as a back-up before his injury.
Guards will return.
Now at tackle two seniors will have to be replaced It’ll be a tall task to do. Minis and Hopkins are men on the field. It’ll be fun to see what young guys rise to the occasion.
That’ll definitely be interesting to see. UC will be ready to play, as you know, so I think they play fairly clean. Special teams has the chance to do something big and is always fun.
I think it’s a tough hard fought first half. Possibly within one score going into the half. I think the Tide comes out on top with a fairly close score to yours.
I’m saying
42-14 Tide.
Possibly 21 if a pick six or coverage blowup occurs.
