Alabama and Missouri are set to meet Saturday in Columbia. Here are three bold predictions for Alabama's matchup with Missouri.
The Alabama Crimson Tide will take on the Missouri Tigers following an impressive 30-14 victory over Vanderbilt.
Ty Simpson has continued to play at an elite level for the majority of the season. Alabama and the promising quarterback will need to establish his presence early on. Missouri will enter the matchup ranked No. 14 in the country, according to the latest edition of the US LBM Coaches Poll, and Alabama will need to set the tone on both sides of the football as early as possible.
Many believe that Missouri is one of the more underrated programs in all of college football. Alabama's defense will face one of the best running backs in the country in Ahmad Hardy, as shutting down Missouri's run game will be crucial on Saturday. Both Missouri and Alabama are talented teams with high powered offenses as the matchup could quickly emerge as the game of the week.
Here are three bold predictions for Saturday's top 15 matchup in Missouri.
Conor Talty hits a perfect 3/3 field goals despite struggling early on
It's no secret that Conor Talty has struggled to begin the 2025 season. The talented kicker is currently 7-10 on field goals this year, but Talty could quickly turn things around with a strong performance against the Tigers on Saturday.
Ty Simpson throws for 300+ yards and 2 touchdowns
Ty Simpson has been one of the best quarterbacks in college football over the past few weeks. Simpson should have no problem producing elite numbers this weekend once again, as Simpson has proven to shine against a number of talented defensive units this season.
Germie Bernard explodes for 100+ receiving yards
Germie Bernard has been one of Ty Simpson's most reliable weapons over the first six weeks of the season. Bernard currently leads the team in receiving yards with 392, and the veteran could be in prime position for another strong performance against Missouri.
