    BREAKING DeBoer: 2025 already feels a lot different internally than 2024

    It's normal for internals to be different during the 2nd season of a HC than the 1st. More stability for one thing. Perhaps going into 2024 some players took a playoff spot for granted in a 12 team field since we made it in a 4 team field so often. They know now they can't just show up to win...

    Nick Saban on why he retired and why he won't coach again

    If you watch the full video which I have in another thread I think the question asked at the 23:20 point is important about what he thinks it takes for a coach to be successful as him. It's an answer that takes several minutes but I think it may have been a message for Kalen DeBoer and the 2024...

    Video: Saban interview on "The Pivot" (Lengthy but good)

    Saban covers a lot of ground in this interview about his career. It's about 1 hour 15 minutes but I enjoyed it very much. Among the interesting things said was that right now he'd rather coach an NFL team than another college team.

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

    It may actually be a good thing if a majority picks against us since the most popular opinions are frequently wrong. I remember when popular opinion was that when the playoff expands to 12 teams Alabama would be in the playoff every season. I realize some of those opinions assumed Saban would...

    Game Thread: CFP Playoff NC Game - Ohio St vs Notre Dame (ESPN @ 730p EST)

    And their 2 losses were by a total of 4 points. A break here or there and they would have been undefeated.

    Game Thread: CFP Playoff NC Game - Ohio St vs Notre Dame (ESPN @ 730p EST)

    If he wins though he'll end up going from the outhouse to the penthouse in just a few weeks. There were calls for him to be fired after losing to Michigan yet again, but he's about to climb to the top of the mountain so he'll probably get a raise and praise by some claiming he's now the best...

    Yeah, I was thinking we could use a guy that could spot the open man like that.

    I cannot root for Notre Dame. Go Buckeyes!

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

    Although scheduling was probably the most likely cause of low ratings I'll mention another thought. How important does having an undefeated team involved in the CFP impact ratings? 5 out of the last 6 seasons an undefeated team has won the championship. This season the ratings for the Ohio...

    Game Thread: Orange Bowl, CFP Semi : Penn State vs Notre Dame, 7:30PM ET, ESPN, 1-9-25

    Notre Dame is a big draw but Penn State is not. I think the fact that it was played on a Thursday night didn't help. That's a horrible time to schedule a playoff game. I guess we'd have to see how Texas-Ohio State did Friday evening to compare.

    After the game Sark tried to pass the buck by saying if everyone would have blocked properly it would have worked. But what are the odds that everyone blocks their man near the goal line on a play like that?

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

    Early odds: Ohio State -9.5 over Notre Dame.

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

    And DeBoer wants to go to a passing attack next season but if our OL needs to be more agile for that I don't know how we go from a big, physical and somewhat slow OL to an agile OL in one season.

    Yeah, a few weeks ago Day was on the hot seat but now I'd say all is well for him.

    I think OSU will have too much speed for Notre Dame.

    Sark cost his team the game with that call.

    BREAKING UGA QB Carson Beck Changes Mind on NFL- to Enter Portal

    Thanks, but there were others who felt he'd end up at Miami as well. Several schools were mentioned but Miami was the only one that seemed to make sense.

    Game Thread: Orange Bowl, CFP Semi : Penn State vs Notre Dame, 7:30PM ET, ESPN, 1-9-25

    I think the 12 team playoff saved Franklin's job for now. He won 2 playoff games and made it to the semifinal so it will appear to the fanbase that the program made progress this season rather than remain stagnant. This loss will be blamed more on Allar than Franklin.
