Do we really know that? Pretty vanilla O with him in so far. Let him play to normal system.

I do.

 

[Cruloc]

That was the 1st down call? What was that.

 

[theballguy]

these are the games where you see what the team is made of

Perfectly said.

 

[RTR2u]

I had to mute the TV. Too much noise.

 

[bama1992#1]

I don't think Sam's motivation is what is causing our problem. We simply are not playing up to our standard, especially on defense.

The d looks lost. Their gas. In Arkansas made some plays.

 

[bamadwain]

Yeah, I’d let Simpson take a crack at it…….. will Saban?

Nope

 

[B1GTide]

Time for Saban to step in and make a difference.

 

[tusks_n_raider]

BoB isn't it.

Arkansas CAN NOT defend the pass.

Milroe CAN throw it.... I've seen it.

Am I crazy?

 

[CoolBreeze]

4 up Tidefans. Time to grind this thing out! RTR!!!

 

[KrAzY3]

I get that Gibbs is RB1, but if you're just going to run it up the middle he's not the guy...

 

[braggtd]

A disaster for Alabama...mute.

 

[Down4ttown]

1st down play was zone read and we ran right into 3 people waiting on the runner. Probably wasn’t the right read.

 

[RTR2u]

BoB isn't it.

Arkansas CAN NOT defend the pass.

Milroe CAN throw it.... I've seen it.

Am I crazy?

NO. You are not.

 

[jthomas666]

We are in trouble unless Milroe can settle down and make some plays.

That can't happen until BOB trusts him to throw on a down that's not 3rd and long

 

[81usaf92]

In addition to making so many unreal mistakes, Arkansas is more physical than us. I had a fear of this happening. Time to give Simpson a shot.

The problem with Simpson is that our o line has to block for him and our receivers have to start catching. Milroe actually gives us the best opportunity at this point.

 

[Cruiser]

I fear we are going to need a 4th Qtr shutout; come D!!

 

[bama1992#1]

BoB isn't it.

Arkansas CAN NOT defend the pass.

Milroe CAN throw it.... I've seen it.

Am I crazy?

I think he can throw it a little bit. But they obviously don't believe in him.

 

[bamadwain]

BoB isn't it.

Arkansas CAN NOT defend the pass.

Milroe CAN throw it.... I've seen it.

Am I crazy?

He might can throw it but doesn't have enough live game experience, I bet he's a little rattled right now

 

[TideEngineer08]

This is all about emotion and focus. I've harped on it but I'll say it again. The team clearly laid down mentally at least when we went up 28-0. They lost Bryce, and still scored 2 more TDs. They thought Arkansas is a joke and they could take the rest of the day easy.

Arkansas decided they weren't ready to quit and we have yet to respond at all in any way whatsoever.

Well, if Bryce is out for an extended amount of time, this team was going to face adversity sooner or later. I guess we might as well get it over with and see what we are made of. 15 minutes to prove it one way or another.

 

[Guido]

They have no faith in Milroe, I do but the staff doesn't.
