    News Article: Coach "Brother" Bill Oliver passes away

    Sad news indeed. Brother was one of the all time best DCs to have ever coached at Alabama. Rest In Peace.

    RIP Gene Hackman

    I have lost track of how many times I have watched Hoosiers. Gene Hackman (Norman Dale) and Dennis Hopper (Shooter) and the Swinging Gate play. One of my all time favorites. Great story that shows no individual player is more important than the team, something that never changes.

    What Realistic Changes Would You Make To The CFB Playoff?

    1. Use BCS computer formula to determine top 12 teams. First reveal of top12 teams the day after all conference championship games are done. 2. Only the final top 12 ranked teams are in. No provision for conference champions.No automatic qualifiers. That would apply to Notre Dame unless they...

    Grubb to be next OC at Bama per ESPN

    I have no opinion one way or the other of Grubb. He has to prove his worth in the SEC against the best teams.

    Does Alabama football have what it takes to compete in this new world of NIL money wars?

    All programs are struggling with where to get their players from. In the past it was totally based on recruiting high school seniors, now it is also about recruiting the transfer portal while trying to retain the players you want to keep from transferring. The old rules of building your roster...

    Does Alabama football have what it takes to compete in this new world of NIL money wars?

    I agree with B1G's above comments. Had we lost to UGA and possibly LSU or USCe rather than OU and Vanderbilt I believe the concern level would not have been as great. BTW we were fortunate to hang on and beat Georgia and South Carolina. I do not know if we have the funding needed right now to be...

    News Article: Fanduel Sportsbook picks Bama to finish outside top 3 in SEC 2025

    Suspect (being nice) offensive line Very little (or no) experience at QB Marginal (at best) offensive co-ordinator Defense could be really good Looks like an 8-4 to 10-2 season

    Playoff Observation (OL Strategy & Play -- no teasers)

    Boise State, SMU, and Arizona State never had a chance to make it to the finals. You could make a case if Texas and tOSU had been on different sides of the brackets, tOSU would likely be playing Texas rather than Notre Dame. I am glad the season is nearly over so we can look forward to spring...

    Playoff Observation (OL Strategy & Play -- no teasers)

    I agree with Smokie's comments. Watching all the games I am totally convinced we never belonged in the CFP conversation. Watching all of these games also convinces me how wide the gap for Alabama has become now between tOSU, Texas, ND, and PSU in terms of talent and more importantly, coaching. I...

    Game Thread: Cotton Bowl, CFP Semi : (8) Ohio State vs. (5) Texas, 7:30pm ET, ESPN, 1-10-25

    Congratulations, B1G to you and tOSU. Really good game. It goes without saying that I look forward to y'all's beat down of Notre Dame. BTW, did anyone see Matthew McConaughey?
