Alabama Football: How Kent State Can Beat Bama
Is there any way that the Kent State Golden Flashes beat the Alabama football team this weekend? It’s possible. Here’s how.
ICYMI: Bama vs. Ole Miss: Best Tweets of the Game
Alabama football fans expect the Tide to roll Saturday against the Kent State Golden Flashes. In fact, the betting line for the game opened at Alabama by 43 points. According to AL.com’s Michael Casagrande, that’s the biggest point spread for the Tide in two years.
It seems crazy to think that Bama COULD lose this game. After all, the last time these two teams met in 2011, Alabama won 48-7.
In the world of college football, however, practically anything is possible. There are several reasons or scenarios that prove the Golden Flashes could take down the current number one team in the nation this weekend.
Today, we’re counting down the top 10 ways Kent State tops Alabama football this weekend. Some are legitimate, some are crazy, and some are downright ridiculous.
It Could Happen – Top 10 Ways Alabama Loses To Kent State
10) JK Scott unleashes another EIGHT yard punt. Yes. Eight yards. It actually happened last weekend against Ole Miss, and is the shortest of his career.
9) Alabama football’s entire defensive line becomes ill with food poisoning after a steak dinner Friday night and cannot play.
8) The CIA hijacks the buses taking the entire Alabama football team to the Walk of Champions and they take them to their cloning labs. They want to create the most finely tuned fighting machines specifically for government purposes.
7) Jeremy Pruitt calls in “sick” because he really really really needs to know what asparagus is.
6) Adam Griffith misses multiple field goals inside the 20. It’s never happened, but one time in 2014, he did miss an extra point against Tennessee. So…it’s possible?
5) Lane Kiffin morphs into sexy man-cougar Joey Freshwater mere hours before kickoff and becomes lost at Gallettes on the strip.
4) Jalen Hurts gets hurt. Then Blake Barnett gets hurt. Next, Cooper Bateman gets hurt, and then David Cornwell gets hurt. So Nick Saban is forced to choose a new QB out of the crowd and accidentally chooses BamaHammer co-expert and former offensive lineman, Chris Hale.
3) Kent State secretly installed the triple option offense like Georgia Southern, and they run through Alabama’s emotionally exhausted defense like s*** through a tin horn.
2) Gus Malzahn, cleverly disguised as Alabama football maintenance worker Russ Calzone, sneaks into Bryant-Denny Stadium and kidnaps Nick Saban.
1) The Curse of Drake. It’s real, and it is terrifying for sports fans everywhere.
