Collecting all of his pawns and keeping them with him sounds like the perfect present for a guy like Saban.

Chris Peterson must be ecstatic. Meanwhile Saban is likely close to having someone whacked.

I REAAAAALLLYYYY want to believe but...nah man. Nah. Huskies might catch Bammer off guard here or there but I've seen this movie too many times.

It's a win-win. Blast an overrated huskie team that the committee never really liked (and enter the NC overconfident) or get caught napping against a hungry and motivated bunch.
Obviously it would be better if they could face a quality squad like OSU 2014 or a slightly better version of UM 2016, but that's not going to happen.

If Washington can dink and dunk over the middle and get the ball to the outside quickly it will be a game. It needs to be one decision and the ball is out. If they try to hang in the pocket and go through progressions it will be sack after sack. They need to know that every time they try to run into the teeth of the Bama defense it is a wasted down. I think the Washington coaches know this and it will end up as a fun high scoring game.
Bama still either way, just whether it's a game or not.

I don't know that I am sold on this "best defense ever" narrative about Bama. They are obviously very good and have scored an unbelievable amount of defensive TD's but they also haven't played any real good offensive teams.
Ole Miss and Arkansas both racked up big yardage and 30+ points on them. That isn't predictive but you can't ignore that it has been done twice now. Once could just be a weird/fluke game, twice means there is something there if you can execute on it.
Washington is far and away the best P5 offense they will have faced so it could be interesting. OTOH it could get uninteresting quick if UW can't handle the physical battles along both lines and/or the defensive and special team scoring parade starts.

Bama beat a bunch of mediocre SEC teams and a USC team that wasn't very good at the start of the season.
Mississippi State needed a blocked field goal to beat a mediocre MAC team.
Vanderbilt lost badly.
A&M lost . And A& M was one of the "better" SEC teams.
Washington will give them fits.

I've wondered if all the Bama hype this year is because maybe the rest of the SEC is really shitty. Then again, it's Alabama and they've proven it on the field over the years many times.

I'm with you man... then a 6-6 Indiana team took #16 Utah down the wire. Without a doubt I believe Washington will show out.
I don't think they win outright but I believe they will have every opportunity to in the 4th quarter. AGAIN I am not saying bama will win but I too think Washington will keep it close.
