Whew! That was close, but exactly what we needed!

Man was that a close call in Oxford? Not to take anything away from an inspired Ole Miss team, but Alabama didn't look to me like the same team that dominated every aspect of the game against Florida. Maybe it was the bye week, or maybe just overlooking Ole Miss. Whatever the case, it might have been exactly the focus-inspiring scare that we needed heading into this weekend's battle with the Vols.
One negative from the game is that might give Fat Phil some ammunition (like he needs any more than he already has) to use against us. My firm belief is that IF we have a good gameplan, and we execute in all three phases like we are capable, we will pull out a close victory over Tennessee. Roll Tide!
