Bama Game Thread: Official Post Game Thread Bama v. Michigan...

I don’t blame him either. I know it is an unpopular opinion but if Tua is going to be a high draft pick I hope he goes ahead and takes the money and leaves. With his history of injury and all he has done for UA I hope he does what is best for him and his family.

I don't think that's an unpopular opinion. I think most Bama fans would say that Tua should take the money and look out for his family. If he does leave, like I expect him to, I would just be thankful for the three years he was at the Capstone, and I would wish him well in the NFL.

We beat the Harbaughs
Auburn lost to the Mud ducks

It’s starting to be a really good day.... a Baptist win over Kirby’s will make it a trifecta

The lack of holding calls across all of football (NFL and NCAA) is getting annoying. I get it, people want touchdowns but defense is still enjoyed in some circles

I think it is clear that teams are aware that Refs simply don’t call Bama games the way the call other games. It’s not whining either. It is a PROVEN fact. If I were a OC playing Bama I would tell my OL to hold the HOLY HELL out of their man until the refs started calling it.

I now realize what "Bear" from ESPN meant when he said that we had played in 157 games, and only 7 without the NC being in question...

 

[Probius]

I normally respect Coach Saban for taking a knee even when I want him not to...this time I respect him for going for and getting the score. I hate Michigan and I very much dislike Whineball.

I also liked to see Najee get a TD on what was almost certainly his last play at Bama. That was pretty cool.

 

[RammerJammer14]

And McElroy was in that too was he not? Don't believe I have heard any crew whine about that until now. If it had been Vandy...I might have blinked...but.....that last TD against Meesheegun?? Not a problem given that it came against Harbaugh.

Maybe I missed something. McElroy was saying that Michigan can’t be ticked, it was their job to stop Bama from scoring.

Not an unpopular opinion at all. We'd all love for him to come back but we all want what's best for him.

Coach Saban says that Henry Ruggs is in concussion protocol from hitting his head on the turf.

I suspected that when I saw the one trainer take his helmet.

 

[crimsonaudio]

I would love for Tua to come back but we are in good hands with Mac Jones. The guy can play.

And is very impressive with so little experience...

 

[bamacon]

That last TD was very un-Saban like. Normally he just takes a knee. I think he really doesn't like Harbaugh so he just added the last TD as a final middle finger to him.

We ran A basic draw 8 plays in a row. Hell, I can get middle schoolers in position to stop that. If they couldn’t stop it, and clearly they couldn’t, they deserved to be scored on.

I think it was a tip of the cap to Najee who ran like a stallion and showed TOTAL HEART and CLASS by playing and playing the right way even though he knew it was his last game. HE FINISHED!!!!

UM fans blaming Patterson for the loss...

They need to go look at the stats...their defense lost this game. Of course, he didn't do much in the 2nd half...but some of that was due to their abandoning the run....

 

[TheBamaBeno]

Congrats and thank you to Jeudy and D. Smith on giving Alabama their 1st ever dual 1000+ yd receivers. They also become the 1st tandem in Bama history with 65 or more receptions each in a season.

 

[bamacon]

Especially in the 2nd half...I also think a move to DE is in for #35 -- Shane Lee -- just not fast enough to keep up with RB's.

About to post this same thing. Hand down for Lee next season. Might be a great blocker on the goal line situations too.

A great end to the season. Whew, they are passing quicker and quicker every year. Bama won and the Barn lost. Read on twitter the Barn finished the decade with a losing record.
This win sure did make those peas and greens taste a lot better.

 

[crtide]

It’s coming over me how much this win means personally. 2019 was a really difficult year for me, maybe the toughest of my life. My dad passed and he’s the reason I’m an Alabama fan. Then the season played out like it did with all the injuries and disappointment. This was a sweet win.

I can relate. RTR!

Apparently that is exactly what goes on. I don't recall how many holding calls their OL got but it wasnt enough. But I think this is happening all across the nation. For danged sure it happens vs Bama though. Our guys get away with holding too..but Bama is likely going to get a call if they do.

Serves them right

 

[Saban4Ever]

I think Diggs and Lewis would have felt bad if Bama would have lost. I really don't blame Lewis because of his history with injuries.

Did they get to come to Orlando, or did they stay in T'town?

Umm, you misspelled "Rapists"...

 

[Evil Crimson Dragon]

Absolutely no doubt that Jeudy and Najee made some $$$ by playing in this game.

IMO, Saban let Najee score that TD to help him. Saban does not run up the score. That was about helping Najee.

Some mudchicken fans are complaining about that, but Captain Khaki Pants would have done the same
