Those not going down to Jerdin Hare—which is most of you—are likely to spend the game in the company of a small group of friends. I’m doubting that the mood will be light and airy.
There are a multitude of worries plaguing Tide fans before this game. The most obvious concern is the decimation of our defense by injury and the loss of the greatest passer we have ever seen wear crimson.
I’m not as panicked as most on the injury front. The situation is not ideal, but the hand wringing we’ve done as a fan base over the youth and inexperience we are fielding on defense is hand wringing that we’ve been doing for eleven games.
