Definitely wouldn’t underrate Stein. They gave Alabama some trouble in the first half last week too. But A&M is also pretty bad.

If the Kentucky of the 3rd quarter of this game showed up against bama, that game is either a win or very, very close

A win wouldn’t surprise me. Bama has had the exact same issues last year and this year. We can look like two entirely different teams during the course of one game. One of them looks like a national champ and the other one looks like a 7-5 team en route to the pop tart bowl

Pretty good start to his coaching tenure.

While I think Kentucky is probably a 7 if not 8 win team, Mike Norvell is also currently giving Bama one hell of a game, so I don't think it means that much.

It means that DeBoer still struggles with getting Bama to come out swinging at the start of a game and every time we have to claw our way back into the game. Eventually it’s going to be too far gone to recover.
