Plain Trouble on "Da Plains" (all AU posts here)

Some wonderful comments from ITAT. Their jealousy is better than the train wre …… er, bus wreck going on.

Interest in the games today? My interest in college football is at low ebb right now. Five or ten years ago or more, I would have been glued to the TV set all day. Especially for Florida-Georgia, which has always been one of my favorite games. But now, I just don't really care. note: the ten year ebbing interest just happens to coincide with Coach Saban's tenure.

Understand that sentiment, when Auburn is out of the picture and we see how corrupt the college game is now it takes the enjoyment right out of it. Guess we need Georgia to win, they may have the best east team that has a chance to beat the updykes.

Not that it matters uat will get in the playoffs even with two losses or by some miracle they don't have to play in the sec championship game. Only fear they have is from injuries. note: Dear Goobers, we do not fear injuries because the corrupt system has already, as you pointed out, assured us yet another Championship.;)

I could stomach Auburn being down before $puat got so dominant. As others have pointed out, every other team has their natural up and down cycles other than them. And then you see what they are allowed to get away with, and the system being rigged in their favor. That is what has killed my interest more than anything. note: There, there little brother. It is going to be all right.

Over the last few years, it has steadily declined. I guess it's just the realization that it's always the same and the system isn't going to change. The same media darlings, and in our case villains hasn't changed either. Watching games, knowing the outcome is being manipulated, knowing what call are going to be and against who before they say has just gotten old. It really has become rasslin ….. Note: seek counseling soon.
 
I've never met a fanbase to this day who thinks the refs aren't against them. Refs are human and make mistakes, but mistakes these days are so magnified with replay and discussion on social media and fan sites. It usually goes like this, though; winners celebrate; losers make excuses. Now, the fact that AU fans complain about officiating being set up against them is a joke. I've never seen a team get more calls at home than AU in Jerdin Hare.

THAT is a demoralized fan base. They've had as much or more success than anyone else has against Alabama over the past 10 years (and that's not a whole lot) and this is what they've been reduced to. Dang we're living in good times.

PSA: Revel in every minute of this, Bama fans. Don't take this for granted. It won't always be this way. These are good times indeed.

Yep, we're riding the crest. Best feeling since the early 60s.
ENJOY every game, 'cause nothing lasts forever.

The system is corrupt for us. Yet they have won one national championship and almost won another during Saban’s reign of terror.

Yet Bama fans can point to facts that leave NO DOUBT that there is ABSOLUTELY a double standard that refs apply to Bama. While I don’t think they do it intentionally or that there is some coordinated conspiracy to bring down the king it is clear to anyone who’s honest that Bama DL are held a LOT and they’re rarely given the call. The foul of choice this year that is being ignored is hands to face.

That is the same thing every other fan base says. Thus the "I've never met a fanbase to this day who thinks the refs aren't against them."

Alabama’s argument is backed up by facts though. Bama’s opponents are called for holding far less than any other team. By a WIDE margin...
 
Not only has Alabama made teams quit. Saban has made team’s fans quit. No question he is the GOAT!!
 
So; UAB received 24 votes in the Top 25 poll which puts them at 36th. That was 3 more votes than the Barn received, by the way. Too funny.
