The 2016 Alabama football team will travel to Oxford, Mississippi this Saturday to take on the Rebels. Here’s why I think they could make it three in a row.

I don’t like to talk about Alabama football losing a regular season game or any for that matter. Meredith, our other co-expert, made me draw straws to see which person would do the “will” and the “won’t”. Okay, we didn’t draw straws. She was already working on hers so I decided to play devil’s advocate.

This game is one of those that hasn’t meant anything in the grand scheme of things in the end for Alabama football but in a tight SEC West race, it very well could.

Alabama fans expect to win this game more times than not and two in a row from the Rebels has left a bad taste in their mouths. Needless to say, they want this one back and I bet there are some players that do, too.

Here’s the part we don’t want to think about. If the Rebels make it three in a row over the Crimson Tide, what factors caused that to happen?

Let’s take a look and see some things that won’t come into play on Saturday. Did you see what I did there?
