Despite having already beaten four straight ranked opponents, including a win in Athens, Oklahoma is not only the toughest but also the most important game on the Alabama schedule. The Sooners have the best defense the Tide has seen all season, which is worrisome to most, given how inconsistent the offensive line has been all season. To be in November and have no faith in the line is wild, but something that has not stopped Bama to this point.
It is going to take a wonderful game plan from Ryan Grubb and staff, so Ty Simpson has the needed time to see the field.
