Herbie giving tons of love

[gmart74]

Herbie is giving us some love on the college special today. I wonder if fans of other teams hate him for giving us mad props all the time. He deserves a raise.

are you ready for some football!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The things Herbie said about the comments about not leaving are common sense to everyone but the people that dont like Nick Saban...who happen to be the media

The others gave props as well.

even mark may when talking about what Notre Dame needed to do, he said he wanted them to win a big game, and later said he wanted them to be like Alabama, Penn State, and Oklahoma....

Herbstreit surprised me with his praise for the Tide and CNS. He said Alabama will win nine games this season. Same as I've been saying since CNS arrived at Alabama. That could very well lead to ten total wins after the bowl game.

Haven't posted in a while. It's good to be back. :biga2:

I watched this also. Herby came on and I was just waiting to hear more Saban bashing and a prediction of a 6 win season but he surprised me with the exact opposite. Even May and the other guy with him both said Saban's impact would be felt immediately this year and would lead us to a few more wins than expected.

The plus for them, is that if we bomb this season, they can say something along the lines like Saban was/is overrated and trop out Miami (I know... apples and oranges), but that is how the media thinks.

Personally, I maintain that we will be around 8 wins, + or - 1 or two, and of course, leaning towards the +

That's what I've been saying also.....I certainly feel like we could win 9 or 10, but I aslo think we could go 6 or 7 (MAN, I hope not!). Everyone knows that we are T H I N up front on defense, so it doesn't take a genius to figure out what teams are going to try to do (Run the ball down our throat).
I think the Ark game will tell us a lot about the defense. If we can somehow limit their running game, I'll start to feel better about our chances, but until then, I'm not on the "10-win train" just yet.

I REALLY, REALLY want to jump on board though!!!!!!!!!!!!

:biga: RTR!!!!!!!!

yes, mcfadden + our thin dline SCARES me!

but they are probably without Monk, and i like our offense, so maybe we can keep up.

Remember, they lost three O-linemen as well...

I feel like there are three constants with our program.....Lots of championships, awesome fans, and the Arkansas game is always the "make or break" measuring stick game. lol
