Alabama Football: A math-based look at Bama vs. NMSU

Well, I would say that my first math-based prediction was a success. Even with all of the unknown factors going into the first game of a new season, the math said Alabama football by 41 and when all was said and done Bama beat Duke by 39. I’ll take a two-point difference.

After a slow start and the concern about replacing Dylan Moses, Alabama was able to put those concerns to bed in the second half of a 42-3 drubbing in Atlanta. It wasn’t always pretty and those first game mistakes reared their ugly head at times but Alabama football got the job done in pretty convincing fashion.
