Oakland has way way more talent than you think when compared to a college team. Dont think Richard Seymour could whip anyone on the Bama OL?

Richard Seymour wasn't good this year but that has to do with the fact he's an aging player at 33. Would he make his plays? Absolutely but that's just one one player on their defense out of 11 and the rest isn't exactly pretty.
We all know it would come down to if a team could stop Alabama's run game and I just can't see Oakland pulling that off. I'll admit that if the game had to be won by A.J. McCarron, the Raiders would win anytime.
It has been done before. Back before the NFL was considered a legitimate sport. The New York Football Giants crushed an all-star ND team, 22-0 in 1930.

Oaklands offense would tear them up too. Matt leinart is a veteran now. Was great in college and is now terrible in the nfl. That's with years of experience! Oh, and hes not even the best qb on the team... Alabama has 19 yr old kids starting. Why am I even responding to this?
The best college team was Texas A&M
I think Amari Cooper could make some plays against the Raiders defensive backs. 10 in the box would be overkill and I'm sure Saban would exploit that match-up any day of the week. All it takes is one bad angle by a Raiders defensive back and they surrender a huge play.
