Alabama football has a pivotal month of games ahead of them. What are some bold predictions for the Crimson Tide for November?

November is finally here. After two months of debating how the college football regular season will end, we finally get to see. We’ll start the month off with all eyes on Alabama football as they take on the LSU Tigers in a battle for the ages. Assuming Tua is healthy, we will see the two best quarterbacks in the country face off in Tuscaloosa.

Alabama has looked great so far this season, but there are still some questions they must answer. Their defense has been improving, but they are incredibly young. Offensively, they need to show more balance in the run game. Najee Harris has played well in recent games, but can they get similar performances once they go against top-level run defenses?

All in all, this month will make or break the Tide’s season. They’ve got their two toughest tests, questions on both sides of the ball, and injuries they must recover from. What will we see from the Tide? We’ll have to wait to find out.

Before the month starts off against the LSU Tigers, let’s take a look at some of the bold predictions for November. We did this last month, and I went four for five. A few were subjective predictions, but I believe the linebackers and the offensive line both improved. The Tide won convincingly against Texas A&M, and they are still undefeated.

The only bold prediction that didn’t hit was that Tua would still have no interceptions on the year. He had one against Texas A&M and Tennessee, the only two games he played in during October. Maybe I’ll have similar success for November.
