Alabama Football: Way-too-Early Game-by-Game Predictions for 2022
Pick Analysis. Nov 5. 9. 817. Scouting Report. Baton Rouge, LA. LSU Tigers. player
One of the most anticipated games every season, LSU and Alabama will clash in Death Valley in Brian Kelly’s first taste of this matchup. Kelly is going to take over the Tigers program and try to get them back to national relevance. LSU has talent on the team, but it is anyone’s guess how the Tigers will look next season.
While this is a great rivalry, it has not been the type of matchups we’re used to. LSU played a closer game than expected last season, but this game is funner when both teams are in the top 10.
LSU will get back to prominence under Kelly, but won’t be able to take down Alabama next season.
Final Score: Alabama 41, LSU 20 (9-0, 6-0 SEC)
10. player. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Nov 12. Oxford, MS. Ole Miss Rebels. 841
This has been one of the more entertaining games since Lane Kiffin took over in Oxford. Ole Miss played the Crimson Tide as well as anyone in 2020 but were disappointing in the much-anticipated rematch last season. The Rebels are going to be losing quarterback Matt Corral and some key playmakers next season.
Oxford is always a tough place to play, but the Rebels have some serious question marks heading into next year. There is no quarterback ready to take over right now unless they land a transfer. By the end of the year, the Rebels should be playing well, but not well enough to win this game.
Final Score: Alabama 45, Ole Miss 28 (10-0, 7-0 SEC)
