Bama Game Thread: Official Postgame Thread, Bama vs. USCe...

[CB4]

USCe is a better team than their record. They got screwed by the refs against lsu. Probably never should have been 20+ dog today. Having said that, we should have won comfortably

And they lost Sellers in that game. They had to finish that game with Robby Ashford at QB. And we’ve seen that movie before. Then the refs intervened.

We lost to Vandy. Your entire post is coming from the wrong perspective.

If the only perspective is, "We lost to Vandy, argument over," then I guess youʻre right.

I said it last week but if you go back and look at last year’s Washington team, he had a lot of close games vs inferior opponents. You can get away with that in the Pac-12, not in the SEC. He may be the best coach in the country right now when it comes to big games but beating the teams you’re supposed to be and in convincing fashion is what separates good teams from great teams.

Dig it. But he did coach there only 2 years and had them in the National Championship game last year. I think we have a lot to build on but gonna be an up and down season this year for sure.

Just made the worse QB in the SEC look pretty competent for most of the day, it’s only gonna get tougher from here on out

Tidefans...The level of negative hyperbole, chicken little proclamations, and front runner syndrome ITT is surprising to me. If we donʻt win every game 42-10 itʻs essentially a loss? Where is the fun in that?

Process this game and the others however you want. Itʻs a W. We move on. We get better, if all goes to plan. Of course there are issues on defense, third down, the inability to finish on the QB. Itʻs infuriating to me, too.

But itʻs a SEC win. Iʻll take it, on to the next.

Problem is we ain't getting better. Every team is gonna play us defensively just like Vandy and USCe. Stack the box and bring more than we can block and cover deep. Until we show we can hit slants and screens on time and such this is what it's gonna be.

we r the biggest fraud in rankings

Comments suggest you just walked out of the barn.

Well, if I ever need a negative nelly perspective then you are my go to friend.

 

[tusks_n_raider]

it will depend on what else happens today. if teams ahead of us lose and teams behind us lose, you cannot drop.

Last year after we lost to Texas they dropped us a few spots and then when we struggle won vs USF they severely dropped us to 11th-12th

We almost lost 2 straight games we were favored by 3 TDs so I’m expecting another severe punishment.

I mean this is a worse situation because there is no excuse like last year where our starting QB was out.

We were Full strength today and played like garbage right after an embarrassing loss the previous week.

Who knows what the voters will do and you’re right that it will depend on other games outcomes.

I wish they’d drop us out of the Top 15.

Something needs to get these dudes attention because apparently losing to Vandy for the 1st time in 40 years didn’t.

It’s not a negative nelly perspective. There is simply no reality in which Bama can ever lose to Vandy…ever.

I believe in giving people 2nd chances. Having said that, Womack’s office needs to be cleaned out by tomorrow and be dismissed today. Like now.

Our problem is TACKLING!!

It's the third or fourth guy making the tackle. Obviously everyone is trying to make the takeaway and not focusing on tackling...

 

[B1GTide]

There is a clear strategy to stop the offense and the score on the defense. If DeBoer and Wommack don't make major adjustments then there will be more losses. I am a very optimistic person, and generally choose to believe that good things will happen even when all evidence points in the other direction. The last 9 quarters of Alabama football have tested that. I am trying to be willfully optimistic.

 

[NoNC4Tubs]

yeah, that was what I was screaming. Did not know if the refs would have given them a safety

With the way SEC officiating is...it most definitely would have been ruled a safety. Right or wrong...

 

[jasongilbert69]

Do we really have as much talent as some people think we have?
Milroe might be our only 1st rounder in 2025 draft (Booker is probably high 2nd) and defense doesn't look like it has any 1st rounders in the near future.

We have plenty of talent . Look at the last five recruiting classes. This ALL goes on the coaches! Terrible player development, terrible play calling, and terrible game planning.

It happened bro. Now gotta strap it up and go to Knoxville next weekend.

 

[1BamaNorth]

Exactly what is the payroll of this staff? Not sure the athletic department is getting its monies worth.

 

[crimsonaudio]

Gotta post this one again:

 

[NoNC4Tubs]

We have an elite offense with a very meh defense...

 

[Redwood Forrest]

I am not done with any of our coaches. People, get hold of yourselves. Don't you think a reasonable person would give a new staff at least year two before they go for blood? News flash! We are 5-1 in the toughest conference in the nation.

 

[TDBama78]

Next week we're going to find out if our gold chains and trash talk is better than theirs.

Plus our defenders get trucked over majority of times
