***felt like a loss at the time

That's what not being prepared gets you. Your butt handed to you by any competent coaching staff.

 

[PGDocBama]

5-5 over the last 10 games.

 

[Nothingfaced]

In all seriousness what was different with Mizzou and LSU? Both talented teams.

 

[CajunCrimson]

Mercenaries vs soldiers fighting for a cause? Is that where we are?

Many players not from Bama. No coaching ties of any note either other than Freddie. Don’t know what’s up.

I do know I don’t have the bandwidth to spend much energy on it. Life’s too short

 

[Krymsonman]

In all seriousness what was different with Mizzou and LSU? Both talented teams.

Mizzou's QB was playing on one leg, and LSU, at the time, didn't know how to stop a running QB.

 

[Bamabuzzard]

In all seriousness what was different with Mizzou and LSU? Both talented teams.

We have a staff who for whatever reason focuses on certain games then doesn't the others. They are highly inconsistent in their preparation and focus. They are an average to below average coaching staff. We are back to pre Saban coaching quality.

5-5 over the last 10 games.

1-3 in the last 4 and all 3 were losses to NR teams where we were favored by -14

I can’t even believe the spin from some I’ve read today.

There isn’t a world where what’s happening is acceptable.

There is positive spin somewhere? There's nothing positive going on in the program right now.

We hired Shula 2.0

And the FSU loss is the worst of all.
Regressed even more.

Some here are still pumping sunshine and blowing smoke and making excuses.

It’s a minority but it’s vocal enough to notice.

I get trying to hope we can ride out a $69 Million buyout without the program falling off a cliff and then cut ties.

But some act like it can actually be turned around and make the Playoffs.

We are closer to this guy losing the program completely than making a playoff.

With the way most players are loafing around and avoiding contact without repercussions can we even say he has control?

As the saying goes don’t pee on me and tell me it’s raining.

The college players are getting paid big time $$$...They will be loafing as much as possible saving themselves for the NFL.

The NFL only cares about measurements and potential.

College Football is dead. Only a few of the players care.

The only positive thing I can think of is that this is just part of the deal. When you're up especially for so long, you're going to be down for a while. If Deboer can't right the ship this season, then we'll have to accept the results until there's another coach. I think Deboer can do it at some point but it will be a very tall order to do it this season and probably the next.

We as a fanbase are very spoiled though I have no apologies for it.

Nope, DeBoer will not do it. There's no discipline in the program, players' attitudes and hustle are not where they should be. The meltdown is beginning.

He's in over his head. Wrong hire.

I'm calling him Coach Debose for now & I hate watching him clapping like Coach Dubose did as we're getting whipped..

I kind of agree but also disagree. Yes, the current hired gun NIL stuff seems to be giving us heart burn, but we need to get our own NILsuper stars if we want to be competitive. Where I disagree is when you look at FSU. They didn't screw around in the NIL portal sweepstakes and turned a horrible team around in a heart beat with players that were playing their butts off.

But; the NFL does not draft soft , undisciplined players. They are very short sighted.

I saw plenty of games this weekend and only saw Bama players loafing.

And; they are the only ones being ridiculed across the internet. How do they respond? We will find out soon if the Crimson Pride is alive.
