****Bama vs. The Barn - PostGame Thread****

[TideMom2Boys]

11-1 is a great season.....put that into perspective. Hopefully we can take out our frustrations on the team we meet for the bowl game.



The biggest test now is not having another 2008 outcome, need to take some time off and refocus.

Not going to happen. We will be dealing with Gus and Sumlin (got contract extension until 2019) for a while now. Hopefully Coach Saban and Smart figure out this HUNH offense. I still put this one on the Offense. You have to put them away.

Play calling. Didn't put the ball in AJ's hands enough when we could have put them away. Maybe it wouldn't have turned out any different, but you have to give him the chance in those situations.

My AU fan sister just called crying freakin' out cause the SEC looks to be out of the NCG, and I'm like umm yea, hello. Pray OSU loses (don't have faith this will happen, but ya).

 

[bamacon]

I don't think so, winner of the SEC CG goes to Sugar Bowl, they will not make the NCG. Only way a conference can have 2 is if one is in the NCG. I think well be in Orlando or the Cotton Bowl.

Ohio St will lose next week. Y'all better brace for an SEC school in Pasadena and it very well could be AU.

Hope the Mayans were off by a year.

We will be ranked 4th this week. All we would need is AU to win SECCG (likely), MSU to beat
Ohio State (even), and state attorney to charge Jameis before the final poll (and hope coaches/Harris voters drop FSU down enough to make up for their computer average, which won't care that be is ineligible).

Evan Williams Green label for me. How about y'all?

I might have to break out the scotch.

That was a very weird, strange game. I've never seen anything like it. I felt the game was over when we went up by 14. We just pull away. I think we needed to throw the ball more.

 

[BamaJama17]

That wont happen. Pity the fool who must play Bama in the secondary bowl

Yeah. Taking out anger for sure. I feel sorry for that team also.

Can't describe the sick feeling I have right now. No more football tonight,newspaper goes straight to the trash tommorow, and no ESPN for a while. This one hurts because of the way we self destructed and allowed them to hang around. Ya'll have a good night, the sun WILL rise tommorow. ROLL TIDE!

 

[CrimSonami]

I'm not usually one to question the coaches or play the "WHAT IF" card but why, oh why, did we not go for the fake kick when they dropped Davis back under the goal? Am I the only one thinking this way?

That's not true. Auburn may get the sugar Bowl, but Bama can still be eligible for a BCS at large bid. See Oregon and Stanford last year. I believe they both went iirc.

This is why you don't run your mouth and talk trash.

Don't drink but I certainly see why folks do on nights like this.

 

[rolltide_21]

I've not posted on the OSU/ MSU game but I don't see OSU dropping that game. They have good talent and are rolling. I see an OSU/ FSU NC.

I don't think I have been this disgusted with an ending to an Alabama football game. It's enough that we lose to the Barn. It's salt in the wound that we didn't execute on defense or special teams. The last play was the nail in the coffin. I don't understand why you put the game on the shoulders of a red shirt freshman for a miracle kick instead of our proven senior QB. But the busted coverage on the run back...unbelievable. We bring our A game, we win that game, but it didn't happen and all the chips fell their way.

I know this, too, shall pass, but it's a bitter pill to see AJ's last season end like this, to the Barn, and to a team that were complete bottom-feeders last year.

 

[BamaJama17]

We have to hope Mizzou or USCe can beat AU.

I'm not ready to be nice or conciliatory. There is a whole lot of negativity inside me right now.

 

[DocCrimson]

My best friend put this theory out: A&M wins tonight, SCar wins over *U, MSU beats OSU, and we may have a shot again. Personally, it seems like too many potentialities... I'm rooting for Duke, MSU, and Mizzou. I can't handle having to pick between a(n alleged) rapist, CUM, or that Cow college...

But putting things into perspective, it's good to be reminded how much more important life is than a game. I have a wonderful girlfriend to remind me of that...

 

[braggtd]

This game has bigger implications. I think AJ was finally building some real steam for Heisman. I think it is safe to say that is gone too. I still think the pressure finally caught up to them. Coach Saban to Texas rumors, Ms. Terry house shopping in Austin rumors, Ms. Terry feeling unappreciated, AJ for Heisman hype building, trying for 3-peat, biggest Iron Bowl in history, anything else???

probably because AJ wasn't holding the ball Cody was.
