SECCG wrap-up: Bama caps improbable SEC run with its 30th championship

Since the media has been having its fun with Isaiah Bond’s last name, recalling the iconic spy of novels and movies, James Bond, here are a few Bond references to describe what Alabama did to…

I think this is the definition of a Cindarella team. Simply amazing how they have got hear. In my mind, Milroe wins the Pat Trammel award - he willl just beat you.

@JessN fantastic wrap up as usual.
I was thinking of Cecil quite a bit during the game and your writing always reminds me of him

 

[CrimsonDollar]

My goodness! What a game. Can I get a Roll Tide, folks!?

Awesome article Jess. I know we view things thru crimson tinted glasses but this article was concise and told the story. I have read plenty of "sportswriters" articles about the game. But IMHO yours is the best I have read. You never get enough kudos for all the work you do. Thanks

"...a third-down shot-put pass to Bond..."

I mean, we all saw it, but only one of us was able to nail the description...

BRAVO Jess for yet another masterfully written, in-depth analysis...

I think UGA may have out thought themselves on the decision to have two spies on Milroe most of the game. I think this may have stopped a scramble or two but it gave Milroe plenty of time to throw most of the time. Normally UGA always has pressure on the QB.

As always Jess, spot on. Always look forward to reading your analysis of the game. Bring on the Wolverines.

As always, another great recap, Jess. Always love your writing and your analysis. On to the Rose Bowl!

a lot of folks have out thought themselves trying to defend milroe. what do you try to take away?

Roll Tide Roll . One of the more satisfying wins in some time.

Another great write up @JessN

Enjoyed this write up, Jess! Kirby and his coordinators got out-coached in this meeting of Behemoths. It was a great game plan, carried out with enough precision by this great team, to take away a three-peat from those big Dawgs, and secure an SEC Championship. This team keeps finding ways to win. Kudos to the entire coaching staff and players. This has been nothing short of a miracle season.

Pick your poison. Spy him-- opens up the passing game. Drop back in coverage-- he'll carve you up with his legs.

I only disagree with the improbable part. Bama winning SEC is not improbable, we do it to often for it not to be probable LOL

I admire this young man. He has overcome every obstacle put in front of him and continues to get better with every opportunity.
His biggest blind spot has been hitting the check-down when downfield receivers are covered. The receivers have not mastered finding the soft spots to get open. Jaylen hit his outlets tonight, except for the couple times he was sacked.

Burtons drop in the end zone and a couple other drops would have gone a long way towards putting the game out of reach instead of winning by 3.
Jaylen’s play tonight should prove the “naysayers” wrong when he went down at the ends to keep the clock ticking and then making first downs with his legs to run out the clock. It was sweet watching Kirby’s offense stand on the sideline helplessly as the seconds clicked down to 00..

Without Jaylen’s leadership on offense and the defense playing lights out, this win would have never happened.

Beat Michigan! Roll Tide!

I really enjoyed and chuckled at the Bond titles. A Job well done!
