    If you don't think playcalling matters, look at the "Jake Coker" year 2014/2015

    I have always said Kiffin was a genius. What he did was incredible! He took three different QBs (all with different skill sets) and made it to three consecutive NCGs, winning one. Two of those QBs were not necessarily the best QBs in Alabama's history and the third was a true freshman.

    BREAKING Tommy Rees hired as OC

    Agreed he is not BOB. I will trust CNS in this process, he has earned that. Josh Pate (I know many are not fans) had a good point - Kelly wanted him at LSU and CNS went after him. Those two coaches know a heckuva lot more than I do. Again we will see what happens, but he cannot be worse than the...

    Commentary: Taking a torch to this joke of a CFP season

    I did not watch the NCG, got rid of YouTube TV after the Sugar Bowl. Didn't even know the score of the NCG until the next morning. Jess has very good points in his article (as he always does) but this team put themselves in a position to make the committee make a choice and it should not have...

    JessN: Early Signing Day recap and roster analysis: 2023 Alabama Crimson Tide

    Let's hope this class pans out more like 2017 and not 2019, given those are the comparisons.

    NLRB Getting involved in NCAA CFB

    Absolutely agree. They want the best of both worlds ( "have their cake and eat it too").

    Kids that opt out of bowl games good/bad/neither?

    I do think it is bad for college football. That said, this is a personal and a business decision. It is pretty easy for me to say someone should play for their team, school, etc. and have not to face any of the consequences if something happens to that player. Yes there are insurance policies...

    Mike Dubose retires

    Spot on. After Curry and going back to Stallings, it is really forgotten now the importance, at the time, we stayed with a "Bryant Boy" and he was a fan favorite, especially seen as Brother Oliver bolted.

    No way tcu is better than Bama with a healthy Bryce Young. If the committee's job is to get the best 4 teams, they have to put Alabama over tcu.

    Bama has nobody to blame but Bama for not being in. No one with two losses has ever been in this playoff. They knew what was ahead of them going into the LSU (with a week off to prepare) and they did not do it. I have no issue with TCU. Undefeated regular season in a P5. They lost in OT in a...

    Thank goodness for Troy, otherwise I would be losing every game today. I couldn't do worse if I tried.

    Completely agree, I would just add, I don't think there is any way the committe has an all-SEC/BIg10 final 4. Also agree. We are two plays away from being undefeated, but we are also three plays away from being a 5 loss team.

    Let the Madness begin - How Bama makes it to the playoffs…..

    I am not into conspiracy theories, nor do I believe any game would be "fixed", but the entire college football world is rooting for TCU and USC this weekend. Particularly the Big12 and Pac12, they do not want to be left out of the CFP yet again. There is serious $$ on the line for both...

    Mack Brown 's comments on Transfer portal

    I am not sure about any of this regarding Maye. We all saw Milroe in the one game and have not really seen Simpson, just heard the hype. I will throw this out, BOB is the OC and the qb coach. We all expect him to be gone. A new (decent) OC should be able to develop either of these guys (Milroe...

    Bama Game Thread: OFFICIAL COMPLAINT THREAD - Bama vs. Auburn...

    how is we can have a three TD lead and we are still worried? This defense is getting trucked. It is so frustrating.
