Michigan's defensive front was better.

Maybe so, but it just felt like we were attacking instead of reacting
Michigan was doing the attacking. Often bringing more than we could block.
Just saw this on JessN's game review article: Milroe completed almost 70 percent of his passes but most where dump-offs.
All year long he's had "good stats" but this just shows how undependable and misleading they can be. Did we ever hit a pass over 20 yards in the air?

I agree with this. It’s puzzling to me why UGA didn’t pressure us more. Our OL looked great partly because of the scheme Georgia ran against us.
Look, when your QB can’t throw a slant, can’t throw a screen, can’t throw short balls, can’t find an outlet RB, can’t ever see the TE, can’t change plays at the line against the blitz, and can’t read an RPO, then you’re going to have trouble with defensive pressure. Your OL looks bad, and your play calling looks bad. Maybe they’re just handicapped by the play of the QB. Milroe had 116 yds passing in this game. Not in a qtr, not in a half, in the game. He’s consistently late delivering the ball to his receivers. And his mechanics are poor - he’s all arm, and tends to throw off of his back foot constantly.
BoB has forgotten more about football than we know. He thinks Milroe isn’t a QB. Argue with him if you want to. I’m hoping Sayin or Lonergan looks great, and Saban isn’t too stubborn to play somebody else next year.

With all due respect, Lamar also doesn’t have any championships to his name. And I would bet he doesn’t win one this year, also.
Guys, there’s a reason why the Brady’s, Montana’s, Manning’s, and even Mahomes’ win the rings. They can read and process defenses and are able to make an accurate THROW….
For the great QB’s, running is the last resort, not the first. It’s what makes them so difficult to defend.

Look I’m probably the 2nd poster that was fully off the BoB train in 2021 but in a way I can understand the method to the madness because in a way we saw the same thing with Daboll with Jalen Hurts. NFL guys tend to train their quarterback stable the same and never deviate from the offensive philosophy. It’s why most quarterback stables are with mostly the same type of quarterback. So I can somewhat get why BoB didn’t want to train Milroe differently than Bryce and expected him to mimic Bryce even though they are totally different quarterbacks. However if Jalen’s context of the story is correct then BoB is wrong with how he handled it.
But I still wish Milroe wouldn’t have brought it up and created a media frenzy about it. I think that and Bond talking about the sign stealing allegations kinda showed that we were dealing with a young and immature team. You really don’t want to make buzz and create controversy before a big game.
Again I think we can improve next year. Milroe will be the starter and it’s anyone’s guess if Sayin will be the true backup.
I never said Lamar had championships or was the GOAT. All I said was that there is a difference between speed and being illusive. Lamar is illusive and Milroe is fast. It’s why Lamar slips out of trouble and Milroe has trouble going East and west.
I don’t think the Ravens win it all or reach the SB, but it’s becoming difficult to find a team in the AFC that you really feel good about beating them.
Michigan's defensive gameplan was different than Georgia's defensive gameplan. Georgia will copy Michigan's plan when we play them early next season.
If our OL played like they did against Georgia, who didn't blitz and played 2 spies......Michigan would have been foolish to attempt the same gameplan.
We need a new Center and a new OL coach. An OL coach that spits nails.
Saban is very loyal. Milroe will be the QB next year regardless.
I get it. I know there is loyalty and precedence.
But we didn't recruit Sayin to sit on the bench if the guy in front of him can't run the offense.
His strengths aren't worth two or three dynamic plays a game if it leaves 90% of what the offense is designed to do off the table.
If CNS can't see how this season was a season of offensive instability and do something to fix it, he's blinded by loyalty.
We literally had to retool the whole offense just to avoid having two or three losses the last half of the season. To CTR's credit he made a lot of chicken salad this year with what he had to work with.
But with all the talent we've recruited, this offense ought to be the finest of steak dinners.
When CNS gets back to T-town he needs to sit JM down and say: "If you want to be QB next year you will learn how to execute the 'Bama offense;' not this watered down, hit or miss version of what we did this year."
I don’t think Sayin will get a chance unless Milroe struggles. Milroe has the team.
Being honest, the best thing that could happen for Alabama would be Milroe leaving for the draft. If he stays, he has to win the job or the locker room will be destroyed, and that is no way to run a team.
As of now. Just like Jalen did for most of the 2017 season.
But if those receivers see a kid who understands the offense, can make adjustment and get the ball into playmakers hands they'll change their tune if they've got any football sense because that kind of QB can make them look even more draft worthy.
Ask the ryde outs.
