Post game press conference is painful.

Good.

This feels like the Rocky movie where Mister T humbles Rocky.

Get hard and sharp this off-season fellas. Most importantly, get hungry.

I was thinking the same except that we are Mr. T. Last year’s game was like the first fight in Rocky 3. This game felt like the 2nd fight

Bama will be back in the CFP again next year. I wouldn't want to face them. Saban will use this defeat to feed the beast. RTR!

Saban cracking jokes in the post game press conference. That’s.....something..
What else can you do?

Blame the officials?

Throw the players, or assistants, under the bus?

The national media has been waiting for this moment for a long time.

Does anyone know the last time we lost by 28 or more points?

Unless I'm missing an obvious one, I can't remember one since getting drubbed in Little Rock 42-6 by the Razorbacks during Dubose' second year.

Got to give it to Clemson. They whipped us top-to-bottom. Straight up. What really gets to me is watching the opposition call a timeout as a curtain call to pull their starters off the field. I hope they have that on repeat in the weight room for the next 8 months. They pulled their starters on you because they were blowing you out. Let that sit in there with these players and coaches for a while. Let that marinate and see if that generates a little more motivation.

That was pitiful, and embarrassing, and any other negative adjective I can think of without getting banned. I think I need to puke.

I can stomach losing but, not in this way. I question the preparation this week because everyone looked lost.

I never would have dreamed that Clemson would hold this offense to 16 points. Can’t call this the best Bama offense after a performance like tonight.

The defense gave up 106 points in the last 3 games. That’s not how you finish a season. The last 2 games proves that defense still wins championships. We were better than OU but Clemson was better than ours.

I’m shell shocked right now. Worst Bama performance in my lifetime. I’m not just talking about the difference on the scoreboard but, also taking into account the stage and magnitude of the game. To not show up in this game is just embarrassing.

This will light a fire under this team for next year, I wouldn’t want to be on Bama schedule.


Congrats to Clemson, you earned it this year. Pray you don’t meet us next year. IT IS ON!

Congratulations to Clemson. They had a great game plan and executed it to perfection. Something about our team seemed off tonight but certainly Clemson had a lot to do with that. Very surprised to see us run the clock out at the end of the first half and lay down in the fourth.

This will be a big motivator and will drive home the dangers of complacency when you are the hunted. Coach will have us back and playing to the standard next year.

While it was a disappointing night, at least we aren’t the barn. Those goobers are busy rolling their trees right now. Smh

So, what do you guys think we will see in the off season as far as changes?
Defensive play caller on the field.

I'm hoping for a one eyed mean looking guy with a limp to coach the o line.

A focus on physicality at the receiver position. Get them coached up to play through the contact.

A pass rush specialist.

Started hearing it before the game, but now the Rhoeteric will really ratchet up. How Dabo has passed Nick as the best coach in football.

Congrats to Clemson for the win. Just know they are keeping the trophy warm for when Bama reclaims next year.

To those that are savoring Bama's defeat, enjoy it because an angry, deeper and more talented Bama team will be unleashed on CFB. Either Clemson mis ses the playoffs, or they better hope Bama misses the playoffs because if Bama/Clemson happens again, it will not be a happy ending for Clemson.

I always say this after a loss. I don’t get to say it much, thankfully, but the sun is still going to rise tomorrow and the Son is still on the throne.

I know this loss will sting, and you can tell Tua and the team is disappointed, but you win with class and lose with class. I’m proud our players seemed to do that.

You think it was on them? Yes they were off but that pick 6, second pick, and the missed ep hurt. Rarely does a team win scoring 16 in this day and age.
You score only 16 when you start having to chase points instead of take them as they come because your defense can't stop em. We had 450 yards. Ought to had about 30 off that yardage. We didn't play great on offense but the defense gave us no chance to win.

Not yet...but trying to close in. A solid #2 with CUM retired.

Could make a case for Dabo as the best right now. Historically, it’s Saban by a mile. Dabo is still behind Meyer historically. He’s catching up fast though..

What? LOL This was one game. We dominated the game against them last year and won the National Championship. This is just silly.

Only if you ignore about 50 things. At best he is tied with Saban over the last 4 years (identical records), and he did this under ideal circumstances. Saban has had to overcome much more adversity at Alabama in the last 4 years than Dabo at Clemson.

Dabo is very good, but Saban is the GOAT, and he has not slipped even a little bit.
