Bama Game Thread: Official PostGame Thread - Bama vs. Mercer...

[TIDE-HSV]

Well, onto UT vs. UGA. I feel dirty, having to pull for either one, but I guess it helps us for UGA to win...

Yes, and it was a game where Autry and his clowns couldn't make much of a difference. They should be required to wear red clown noses in every game, where the teams knew what they were dealing with. Replace reviews with a craps table...

Hopefully we don’t see him the rest of the season.

CKD got his 8th win no other first year coach has ever won no more than 7 games their first season the last one to do it was Ray Perkins.

 

[mlingerfelt31]

Any word when they might replay this game.

Replay the whole game? Why? Were the refs not ready the first time?

Honest question…when did/has coach saban EVER put in a 5th string qb??? I dont remember ever going past 3rd string.

He is going to get at least 10 unless something catastrophic happens.

I think I remember Jay Barker's son coming in for one play?

 

[bamafaninbham]

I saw we subbed in a 4th QB, #16, at the very end. RollTide.com said it was Cade Carruth. Anyone know if there's a connection to Paul Ott Carruth from the mid-80s?

Yes Paul is his uncle. They talked about it on the radio broadcast.

Shame both cant lose

 

[dtgreg]

Well, not even the post-game comments by players and coaches. I'm frozen with a two-fisted fry eater...

I'll never understand what the kids are talking about...

 

[AlexanderFan]

Did anyone see if Jayden Robert's played? Or did they rest him this week?

Looks like he rested, saw 56 with the ones.

This was a really unique and satisfying win. It made me smile to see so many guys play, the joy and support from the 1st and 2nd stringers, and the overall positive chemistry.

I don’t want to read too much into it, but CKD appears to be pushing all the right buttons. Guys look totally bought in and determined. I’m super excited for our trip to Norman. I love college football.

 

[teamplayer]

Excellent game and a nice pass from Mack! Roll Tide!

I couldn't believe how accurate that pass turned out to be because it wobbled like a duck. Great catch by Scott!

I've always thought that these games defined what college football is about just as much as the big games. They often build unity when hard working guys get some field time. They allow starters to get some rest and play a different role. They allow fans to see some guys they've only heard about. Every now and then one of the Cinderellas makes a game of it or even pulls off a huge upset. I never want every week to be nothing but huge match ups. Of course, that's just me. Roll Tide!

I wouldn't count those just yet. OU and AU will give our offense serious problems with their defenses. I just hope our D keeps on improving.

Bama's scoring D (ultimately, the only defensive stat that matters) is better than awbarn or okie (national rankings):
Bama: 10
barn: 18
okie: 40

Assuming Bama shows up ready to play they should beat both of these teams but 10+.

Yes, they should, but should has a much different meaning than will. I hope we annihilate both of them, but I expect serious challenges from each.

Bama's future? Great pass by Austin Mack, and great catch by Rico Scott.

The QB room should be interesting next season. Ty showed a lot of good things yesterday and Mack did too. The position should be in good hands moving forward. But one thing Ty brings that is going to give him an edge and that's his scrambling ability. He can kill teams with his legs.
