SIAP, but this is for the folks who have said they don't thing bulletin board material is meaningful.
Finley said Alabama "might not be who they think they are." The rest of the Crimson Tide learned of the Hilltoppers' quarterback's message and on Tuesday, Alabama co-captain Tyler Booker explained that these comments were gold when preparing for the game.
"It was a little disrespectful, we definitely saw what he said," Booker said. "That wasn't the main motivation for going out there and hanging 63 points on them, obviously, we're going to play to our standard but that just added a little fuel to the fire."
"Make them believe that we're still Alabama," Booker said. "When one of their players says something along the lines of '[They] might not be who [they] think [they] are,' Our whole purpose of the game is to just show 'em who were and who we say we are. I feel like we accomplished that and I think he'd say the same."
