This game will be a big one, and it could be a dangerous game as well. I hope the fans really show a lot of enthusiasm and support for the team, they deserve it.
Must be something they started since I went to schoolThe fans will show up, however, the students will probably be studying like they have been all year.
I have over 2,500 posts and how many of them were critical of Alabama, or their fans? A very small minority of them. I made more posts critical of Shula's coaching than posts I've made complaining about fan support and attendance. Having said that, I have seen areas of fan support I was unhappy with, and when someone like Saban voices those same concerns it doesn't make me feel like I'm just on my own. Larry Burton saying it as well doesn't make it an invalid point now does it (although we should applaud ourselves for running him off, surely we rid ourselves of some great evil)? Now isn't the time for country club fans. Supporting the team not only helps the team on the field, it helps recruiting. When you have recruits go to the biggest game of the year thus far, and most of them spend the latter portions inside instead of out in the crowd you know the atmosphere could have been better.lol, we get it man. You think every Alabama fan ever, should be at every Alabama game ever.
We'll all be sure to teleport there next week.
Will you and Larry Burton be there together?
Really, how many posts do you have to make criticizing our poor fan support? LOL
You know, I heard that about the Miss. State game, but it seems to me that things died down pretty fast. Yes, it was a blowout, but it's a four quarter game. A lot of big recruits were there and they should have seen a good four quarters of cheering instead of upping and leaving when a lot of fans did.I'm thinking it won't be a problem. Our fans will "bring it" for the Aggies!!

The TEAM is going to need Tide fans help in this one from beginning until the end. Since I don't have a ticket, I'd better see the stadium PACKED with Crimson Tide fanatics. Be very nice to the Texas visitors before and after the game, but during the game show your unending rabid support for the Crimson Tide.This game will be a big one, and it could be a dangerous game as well.

The fans did our part for the MSU game. People left in the second half because the game was not in doubt, it was 45 degrees, and it was already past everyone's bedtime. Doesn't make anyone less of a fan or suggest that we failed to do our part in any way.You know, I heard that about the Miss. State game, but it seems to me that things died down pretty fast.

I agree with you. The fans tend to step up for big games and critical moments. Anything I've had to say that was critical about them, was not how they acted for big games and big moments. My concern is more with consistency.The Bama fan base is one of the most knowledgeable fan bases that follow football. We can recognize huge games with everything riding on it, and we know what to do, and how to act.
That's funny, I could have sworn there were still Alabama players playing a game in the second half. It was cold and past their bedtime but they stayed out there and played football. If they upped and left in the second half (which, to some extent has happened in the past) things would have turned out quite different. And that is the root of what I'm getting at.The fans did our part for the MSU game.
