    Bama Game Thread: Official Postgame Thread - Bama vs. Vols...

    I've been wondering about this myself. I'd like to know why the offense in particular seems to start so slowly? Obviously, we see that the offense can have success against anyone so far, just not at the beginning of the game. It's fantastic that the coaches and the players are doing a great job...

    JessN: MSU @ BAMA GAME WRAP-UP: Defense reverses course, offense flounders in a night of mixed messages

    I agree on the point that Bryce's shoulder may have been bothering him all night. I noticed early in the game that his passes didn't seem to have the same zip on the ball that he usually displays. Then to your point, his accuracy regressed as the game wore on. Hopefully, the time off will help...

    Too early to talk Spring Ball? ( Discussion thread)

    It will be awesome to have a true home run hitter at the RB position again. Despite the great talent that has cycled through at that position, not since Derrick Henry and Kenyon Drake has there been a breakaway threat like Gibbs could be....

    What's it going to take to beat Ole Miss

    Just based on this year's Bama team, I think the most important thing to avoid is the long stretches during games when both sides of the ball get mired in innefectiveness. It's happened in every game this season, and it allowed UF to get back in and take control of the game. I'm not sure what...

    If CFP Expands, What's the Fate of the SEC Championship Game?

    I think geographic footprint will also have a greater impact on Conference Championship Game attendance post pandemic. Meaning, the SEC has the tightest geographic footprint, and IMO that will lead to better in person attendance from the simple fact that teams and fans aren't travelling well out...

    I think some of us need to back up and think...

    SIAP, but seeing the way the LSU players, coaches, and fans have reacted, and continue to react, to LSU's win, I have to come to the conclusion that this game to the Tigers was the equivalent to the way Bama players and coaches treated the 2009 SEC Championship game against Tebow and Florida...

    Question: So do we go back to old school Alabama football against Arkansas?

    I think Mac has shown some ability, but now he has to do it consistently with the opposing D scheming particularly for him. There's no other way to find out but to play the game. I just hope he can hit on some plays, avoid negative plays and sacks, and definitely avoid turnovers. Oh, and try and...

    Question: So do we go back to old school Alabama football against Arkansas?

    The main thing I want to see out of Mac will be his recognition and success against blitzes. I think Arky will blitz early and often, as will all of our future opponents if Mac is playing. That's what I would do if I was a D-Coordinator facing Bama without Tua. Why wouldn't you blitz? The Bama...

    What do you think will happen with Pruitt?

    The death knell for Nebraska was the move to the Big10. It may have made sense financially, but I don't believe that program will ever be able to recapture its former glory in that conference. The move made recruiting to Nebraska incredibly more difficult, its a bad fit rivalry-wise, and it has...

    Poll: Which Program will hire a new coach after 2 years worth of Buyer's remorse?

    I was thinking along the same lines as you. Fulmer brings in a guy in Pruitt who is known as an ace recruiter and an up and coming head coach candidate. Fulmer is banking on Pruitt stocking the roster with solid recruits, maybe thinking that if Pruitt flames out as coach, phatty can step in and...

    Hypothetical Question - 1 loss Bama over 1 loss OSU?

    Re: Hypothetical Question If this Bama team loses today, they will probably lose the SECCG. To answer the original question, I think a one loss Bama team must win the SEC to have a chance of making the playoff, and it would be an outside chance.

    I'm about tired of seeing teams go after Tua's knees

    I agree that Tua, or any QB, can mitigate the amount of hits they take by getting rid of the football quickly, but that really misses the point here. When you review the hits in question here, the hit delivered by Delpit in the LSU game, and the hit by the MSU defender that knocked Tua out of...

    JessN: MSU wrap-up: Effect of injuries shows how tenuous Bama’s position could be

    I don't know if it's been said, but Mississippi St. was the 2nd team in a row to pretty much have 2 weeks to prepare for Bama. LSU legitimately had 2 weeks, and MSU played La Tech the previous week. It'll be the same for the barn game. If you give a good team, in this case an excellent defense...

    Question: Sure is quiet out there before game (MSU vs Bama)

    It has been quiet, and I think that most Bama fans are wary due to the history of sluggish play after the LSU game during CNS's tenure. But, looking at MSU's schedule, I don't see where they have beaten a really good team at all. Their two "good" wins are at home against a disappointing AU team...
