This Alabama team could easily have lost to USCe and GA and be sitting at 6-5 right now. This is not a good football team. Just beat Auburn.
At this point I’m okay with the barn winning so they don’t fire their sorry coach while we figure things out. Our season is over. Bama doesn’t live and die by the Iron Bowl like the barn does. We have bigger fish to fry and we need to get our act together for next year.

Remember earlier in the season when we were told that Deboer adapted his offense around Milroe’s skill set? Most of his offense was never installed because Milroe couldn’t run it, so they made the decision to sink or swim on the one thing Milroe can do: run the ball. That was completely shut down tonight, leaving no options but to keep doing it or try to pass to get back in it, which he can’t do. Even if they put in a better passer, he would have no experience running anything other than the limited offense they’ve been running all year.
No one can convince me that Ty, Dylan, or Austin couldn’t operate the Offense better.

Ty and Dylan I know would at least be able to distribute the ball better and with Ty you get Manziel/Bryce level escape ability and avoid all the negative sacks.

#4 is the worst Bama QB I’ve seen since the Guillon/Pennington days.

He flat can’t read defenses or consistently distribute the ball.

Great straight line sprinter but brings nothing else to table other than random deep shots.

You can’t win that way vs competent defenses and competent defensive coaches.

I think Milroe threw the INT's because he was frustrated he couldn't run the ball. That's a problem when a team counts on their QB to both run and pass the ball. Milroe is in more of a comfort zone passing the ball when he's also able to run for yardage but when he can't run it shakes his confidence and frustrates him to the point where he can't throw it either. If we'd have a drop back passer who would be only responsible for throwing the ball things might be different.

Yeah, two teams they dominated for about a half which makes everything so frustrating. They can look like the best team in football, but in the same quarter look like a team that would lose to Western Kentucky. Makes no sense.

How do you know the conversation wasnt had the other way around? CKDs hands are tied...

The AD is responsible for the workings of NIL because it has to be managed across all sports...


This type of thinking is why he isn’t the man for the job. Hey Just so,you know I predicted a 8-4 or 10-2 season. Prior to the season I thought sure losses were UGA and UT… never saw Vandy nor did I think after the season unfolding that Okie would be a loss.

Now we are on the cusp of losing to Aubie if Milroe plays and nothing makes me think CKD is going to make the change. So we will wind up 8-5 after bowl loss. This is where Byrne should sit KD down and explain the facts of life to him and that is JM is not the answer and let him know every loss from here on out with JM under center is a nail in his coffin. Either way this season is a bust and probably next year too.

MIlroe is boom or bust and nothing in between. It's either a 75 yard scamper for a TD or a dumb decision.

I’ve been saying for at least 3 years that Bama is getting beat on both sides of the line of scrimmage. I don’t care how many 5 star athletes we get, if we don’t get some linemen, we will get the same result.

Milroe has to start next week or his draft stock will drop even more. Need him to play well one more time so he can move on. Then tell him that he will not be starting the bowl game and advise him to "sit out the game to prepare for the draft" so you can begin developing next year's starter.

He'd be a great RB or receiver

Everyone is blaming Milroe (mostly), but what is he supposed to do when half the opposing team is in his ear within 0.00571 seconds of snapping the ball? Where's the offensive line? Do we even have one?

That's the biggest thing that needs to be corrected.
Nope. Many times I counted while he was in the pocket. Usually it was between 1.5 - 3 secs.

And if his friends want to sit out, then so be it

Been saying it for 3 seasons now, and I was called everything under the sun from “hater” to “racist” (not here). People said I was gonna “eat my words when he wins the Heisman” as if that means ANYTHING to Bama. Every year we don’t win a title is a disappointment, but this is just downright catastrophic failure.

I’m okay with this as long as he’s gone. IB means nothing this year. This season is over. Let the barn have it if it means we’ll be better off in the long run.

But he needs to play well in that game to leave.
