First, 'let's just take one game at a them' 'the only game I care about is the next one' 'you better focus on lsu'


With that said, folks, we're down to 4 more games and a VERY well-timed BYE week. 4 games....you come out of the bye fully focused on the toughest of the 4. Then you get a couple of 'breathers', then the Iron Bowl. It just doesn't get any better....I don't think you could write this script any better.

I seriously underestimated this team, mostly the defense, going into the season. I think the schedule has helped this team, but they've also created their own identity....they're just good.

In spite of how much more we were going to be able to open up the offense, with all those receivers, this gameplan is the same always. It just doesn't change from year to year; only the names change. Balance, balance, balance. We can, and will, beat you on the ground AND through the air. Not either/or.

I'm grateful for this week off. I hate when we aren't playing. But I think we're about to see an incredible 4 game stretch. It WILL be talked about, folks, so get ready. History is in the making as I type, and as you read. Soak it in and enjoy it

I totally agree. OL has gelled and continues to get better. The DL is holding their ground allowing the LB to roam free. The secondary hasn't been bad, it's actually been very good. It's just the injuries. The bye did come at a good time. Can't wait!!

We all know the LSU game will be a physical football game next week but I think Bama will handle LSU and play their best game so far this year. I think Saban has the team ready to roll in November and I can't wait to watch these last 4 games. RTR!

Ditto. It's all about our next opponent (LSWho). Nothing else matters. The pretenders want is and we want our next opponent.

This team has come together at the right time. I've been impressed with our development this far.

Lee Corso is going ham on us this morning, saying we're #1 only because of Reputation.

With us off and Oregon not playing till Thursday..this is their chance to talk up FSU. We will have our time, they can't deny us being #1 if we win out. It is already noted that we have the toughest schedule left of the "big 3".

Hey at least they are giving love to AJ. I agree with Desmond, AJ outplayed Johnny in our game. But AJ is never considered an elite QB....ridiculous.
