Bama Game Thread: Official PostGame Thread - Bama @ FSU...

[Probius]

I'm sick over this game. I was expecting so much from this team. They were supposed to be much better than last season. This was supposed to be the season we see the big positive change. The team looked absolutely awful today. I'm irate. As far as I'm concerned, DeBoer is officially on the hot seat. This is inexcusable. Period.

Castenallos said they dont have Saban to save them and he backed it up. Respect to him he was right. Looks like an 8 win season.

Eight? I think you are being very optimistic. I think 7-5 is about right. We'll see.

Sorry but after today we deserve every bit of this:

 

[SkinnyFats]

Let me guess - at his press conference, CKD will be passive and low key.

 

[GrayTide]

We’re not extremely well coached, and the past couple years we’ve not had as many truly great players as we became accustomed to. I don’t care HS rating…. Fewer first rd draft picks …fewer true difference makers on offense and defense, good players…but not great like in Saban years.

Ty was hardly great today….but he was starting his first game in a deafening stadium, ag better coaches and players who dominated both sides of ball. He was not the problem or the solution.

What kind of team are we gonna be? Still lots of football left, obviously.

New drinking game: You have to take a shot every time Proctor gets beat on a passing down.

 

[OconeeTide]

Maybe we should of hired Norvell.... I heard preseason he was on the Hot seat we could nab em at the end of the season.

 

[RollTide_HTTR]

Probably stuck with Deboer for another year but I'm pretty convinced he's not it. I hope somehow he makes me eat crow but I don't see it. They'll spin it as he gets to have his QB next year or something.

 

[Coach D]

Just don’t like the soft coaches. Soft dc gives you this and soft head coach/oc. I’ve also wondered why strength staff has been so hyped, since taking over we seemed weaker physically every year.

 

[Bamafan23]

DeBoer has pulled the program down quicker than I could have imagined. 4 loses against unranked opponents in 14 games. I saw some fight from Ty and a few other guys. I hope RW is ok. But incredibly disappointed in this staff. The reports DeBoer provided during fall camp were so different than what we saw on the field today.

 

[TideMan09]

Hats off to FSU..We got out coached & out played in every facets of the game..

 

[denver]

Its clear the defensive scheme does not work against mobile quarterbacks and Womack does not adjust. Maybe it doesn't help our talent excel but whatever it is we are weak on the LOS and get beat too often on misdirection and sideline routes. LOS is the key and we don't dominate them anymore. I was hoping this would be back to Bama football but its not...its back to the last 2 years football

 

[CB4]

What little passion I had for college football was pretty much extinguished today.

I tried, but I just am not feeling it. I've been posting quite a lot about this over the last couple of years - the way the game has changed (x-fer portal, pay for play, etc) has basically ruined the sport for me. I had hoped watching the game today would get me fired up, but in reality, I'm not even upset Bama lost. I feel no connection to this team, and they feel completely disconnected from the school I attended.

C'est la vie...

I’m there with you CA. We’ve shared similar thoughts the past few years. Truthfully I was spending more time with my grandkids this afternoon and catching up on the game when I could.

My Alabama “Give A Damn” is just about busted.

that sucked in every way and I had to listen to jesse palmer

by mid season we will be getting espn's interns calling our games

 

[RWTT11]

These comments are full of sugar coating. We were horrid! On both sides of the ball.

Bad play calling, bad execution! We looked unprepared and lost, just like last year! To many darn penalties, just like last year!

Vanderbilt, Tennessee, Oklahoma and a bad Michigan team. Now this? Pack his bags and let's start it over, it's not going to get better. He's over his head and it's plain as day.

 

[Rocky Mtn Bob]

Looking at the final score, I say this. The game WAS closer than that score suggests.

But we did lose and they won. And that sucks.

 

[RammerJammer14]

This is exactly why I said I had zero expectations for this season and could see it being 7-5. It’s the first game of a long season with plenty of time to improve. But this did not look like a well coached team out of the gate. We look like we picked up right where we left off losing to Michigan. I guess it turns out that FCS and Washington isn’t Alabama. I can’t even say “SEC” because this was frickin 2-10 FSU.

We should not be ranked at all next week.

same here

 

[some_al_fan]

DeBoer will get one more season. With his contract, he is pretty much guaranteed to be Bama coach in 2026.

 

[OconeeTide]

We are gonna loose ALOT of talent to the transfer portal when the season is over.
