Is this the biggest Alabama bowl loss ever?

Grubb is the first guy to go. no ifs and buts.

It worked for Seattle

Grubb is the first guy to go. no ifs and buts.

Give him a choice of being left on the tarmac in Los Angeles tonight or attending his ceremony where he will become a made man.

Can you blame the defense? I mean really? 3 points. The off-season better see so.e coaching turnover. Ask Mike Shula how being loyal to asst coaches worked out. Spend money in the portal on olinemen and back a brinks truck up to Sam Pittmans house.

I get that after seeing the other side flail around so much morale begins to sink. But one of the things about this team this year is the defense never quit. They did today.

Again… not laying blame. Just calling it like I see it.

Saban didn’t talk smack like Cignetti does. That’s the difference

Doesn't matter, dont get demolished and get completely dominated in a game like this.

It's actually tough hitting refresh to see the updated score.

That said, them running up the score - if that's their intention, isn't the worst thing.

It may way provoke action in advance of next year

Plus they're sending a message to the remaining teams, from their point of view it's perfectly justifiable.

 

[bamamc1]

Because he's a douchebag. Google it.

He was the lowest paid assistant on CNS staff. Google it.

 

[M Squires]

Maybe. The core from last year is still there.

Three or four O linemen return. Three of four in the secondary, and two of three LBs and the best DT, and Cignetti and Haines return.

 

[Krymsonman]

I like how they’re just blitzing every play knowing Grubb has no answer

This isn't new. Grubb never has the answers. That's why Seattle canned him quickly.

Classic DeBoer lol

expect to hear the firings from Bama staff tomorrow. Excsue

 

[PA Tide Fan]

Headed for one of the most lopsided losses in Alabama history. We lost to UGA 35-0 back in 1948 and lost to Vandy 78-0 in 1906. See how far back I must go?

 

[BamaMoon]

I didn't see us quit.

I saw us get beat. Soundly.

I think this team overachieved, but that's an off season topic too.

 

[editder]

Yes, seriously.

The inaccuracy cost us a shot at a TD. The one good throw doesn't invalidate the negative of the other throws. Inaccuracy kills drives.

Obviously, the coaches trusted an injured Ty more than Mack or Russell.

That trust wasn't arbitrary...

Ty threw plenty of bad passes.

Yes.

Then motivate and prepare your team to shut up his team ... and their coach.

I get what you're saying, but I wouldn't have much of a problem with it if he coached my team. As my wife's grandfather used to say, who played for Alabama btw, if the coach is so nice, he should have been a preacher.

Add it to the list

according to the interwebs:

Alabama's biggest bowl game loss by margin was 31 points in the 1998 Music City Bowl, a 38-7 defeat to Virginia Tech

We have been shown what a very good football team, Indiana, looks like, reminds me of our Saban championship teams and their standard of play.
