Jake Allmann writes: “Given Alabama’s superior talent, depth, and home-field advantage, they are heavily favored to win this game in a blowout. South Florida, while coming off a strong performance, faces a significant step up in competition. Alabama should control the game on both sides of the ball, leading to a comfortable victory that solidifies a place among the nation’s elite teams.”

It writes: “The Bulls opened the season with a 48-3 thrashing of Bethune-Cookman. USF outgained the Wildcats 403 to 170 despite playing reserves for the end of the third quarter and the entire 4th quarter. Five different Bulls scored a touchdown. Even with their early success, it is hard to imagine they will come in under 30 in Tuscaloosa this coming Saturday.”

Ronald Evans writes: “The game will be nothing like last season, which is not a weather prediction. Alex Golesh will bring his ‘Go-Go-Go’ offense to Tuscaloosa and Kane Wommack will counter with ‘Stuff-Stuff-Stuff’ defensive fury. I’m only predicting a second touchdown by the Bulls because the Tide secondary will still be a work in progress.”
