I'm not saying hire Scott Cochran mind you, or replace the strength and conditioning coach either, but it's obvious that Alabama is lacking discipline and motivation. Against FSU there were something like 14 missed tackles (in the BCS championship game against LSU there were 0 in the first half...

I'm sitting here contemplating the potential fallout if the ACC gets 2.5 (including Notre Dame) teams in the playoff and the SEC only gets 3. I don't think the SEC would do anything rash, but remember how FSU responded to being left out of the playoff? They threw a giant fit and then publicly...

Pardon the indulgence, I sometimes find discussing issues after a loss cathartic. For those of you wanting a TLDR, I believe the most pressing issue is discipline but I still think DeBoer is one of the better hires Alabama could have made. This isn't an attempt to just disparage DeBoer or call...

I thought this was worthy of a topic.

I stumbled across an interested stat, and felt like it was worth sharing. Full disclosure, I do think Alabama has been under-utilizing their running game. I probably feel like some people felt about the receivers during Hurts time at Alabama. That there's just too much talent there not to be...

I often find myself writing something after a loss, so bear with me, I beg your indulgence. I'm not entirely sober, please overlook any more errors than usual. Also, I'm not attempting to place blame on an individual basis or encourage that, because Alabama wins and loses as a team. I'm not...

I looked for a Heisman thread and didn't notice a recent one. Anyway, the LSU game is big for obvious reasons, and I like a lot of fans view the Heisman as of secondary importance. It still irritates me that in recent years it has been turned into the Oklahoma quarterback award though, and it...

I probably wouldn't be writing this if Alabama executed properly and won the game. 1-3 against Alabama wouldn't be anything special, we've seen that before. But, 2-2? Splitting the past 4 National Championships with Alabama? Yeah, credit where credit is due. It is enough to daydream about...

Every now and then I hear some propaganda about the number of conference games the SEC plays (a ploy to try to push the SEC's SoS into suicidal territory). This overlooks the fact that the SEC is the toughest conference in college football, and that they didn't soften things up with the likes of...

Every now and then a UAB topic pops up here, or UAB gets brought up and one thing I've heard is how their attendance has improved a lot, so on so forth. Well, I decided to take a look. UAB had a good season, so I thought I'd check out their last home game of the season (overtime game, clinched...

We've had discussions here about the opponent penalties or lack thereof, and I seem to recall occasional attempts at explaining this away. To sum things up, Alabama's opponents just don't have very many penalties, which past a certain point becomes suspicious. There was even a notorious streak...
