do You think Michigan is hoping for another downpour?

Nothing epitomizes the Jalen Milroe era better than this first half.

The perfect post doesn't exis...

 

[colbysullivan]

Calling a guy selfish or worse isn't "fact based criticism."

Example: A guy can make a terribly dumb play and calling that play dumb is great, but calling him dumb personally isn't cool IMO.

We have enough evidence on the field to know beyond the shadow of a doubt that Milroe is a selfish player. It’s not debatable.

 

[day-day]

Both he and Milroe should have gone out of bounds. Bernard wasn’t gonna score and it cost us a down and time.

Especially Bernard. It took away one offensive play when they had to down the ball on first down.

 

[RollTide_HTTR]

Lol Michigan is bad.

All of this

Lol Michigan is bad.

Yes, they are.

 

[Joefus]

Neither does being delusional and calling fact-based criticism “hate”…

[Edit to correct grammar error]

He didn’t come for you why are you being disrespectful to other posters

 

[DzynKingRTR]

ok. postponing my ruck, please don't make me regret it

 

[Bazza]

It's early yet......keep the faith folks!

Down by only 6.

A entire half left to play.

Momentum = Bama.

RTR!

 

[rtr90]

close game means mich cannot blitz every down and give us no chance ..

 

[December05]

And our score at the half:

Torrential Downpour/Awful Cleats - 13
Alabama - 10
Michigan - 3

I still like our chances in a sun-filled second half.

I like Germie. I’ll never truly criticize a player for trying to score but you MUST know the situation. He did the same thing at the end of the USCe game, and we almost lost because of it.

 

[B1GTide]

Defense was amazing in that half. Amazing.

 

[Krymsonman]

d has been playing well, so we can take control of the game in the early 3rd quarter if we get our minds right at half

Yeah, if it wasn't for the defense, we still wouldn't be in this game.

 

[Special K]

Especially Bernard. It took away one offensive play when they had to down the ball on first down.

That would have been better, yes, but hard for me to criticize one of the few guys on offense that has played consistently clean football with great effort, not just this game but all season. He was trying to score and dang near did, probably would have if not for the trailing defender cleaning up the tackle.

 

[countrytider]

If it weren’t for the defense, we wouldn’t have a chance.

 

[Bama Lee]

Defense was amazing in that half. Amazing.

Especially considering how many of our guys hit the portal or are injured

 

[RollTide_HTTR]

We don't deserve it but I hope we end up winning this game by 3 scores. Mostly because all the media people on Twitter talking after that start
