Re: SECCG Postgame
This team showed a lot of heart tonight and I'm sorry for them they couldn't hold on in the 4th qtr. We will regroup and do well in the Sugar and then who knows come out pre-season #1 next year with our great talent of young players. Roll Tide!:BigA:

Re: SECCG Postgame
We performed at a high level and were defeated by a team that played at an even higher level.
I am excited about next year and the possibilities that will come. We're back. And we are here to stay!

Re: SECCG Postgame
Haha, I was so busy studying for the LSAT/getting pumped for this particular game that I didn't see that Utah is our likely Sugar Bowl opponent.
Reading Jon Krakauer's "Under the Banner of Heaven" last week came at just the right time haha!

Re: SECCG Postgame
Yep looks more down than I have ever seen him....... You can tell he wanted this one bad and he's blaming himself, but he has 24 hrs. to regroup :wink:
Re: SECCG Postgame
Great game all around. For the first time this year we didn't own the 4th quarter. Hats off to the staff and players for everything they accomplished this year. Now lets get that 13th win.

Re: SECCG Postgame
We led that game going into the fourth quarter. We ran it right down UF's throat all the way through the 3rd quarter and had passed the ball well enough throughout the game that the fourth quarter should have been a heavy dose of Coffee and Ingram behind the OL paving the way to the end zone. What happened on offense instead on that first drive of the fourth quarter was inexplicable and it was the difference in the game.
I just cannot believe that we were EXACTLY where we wanted to be going into the fourth quarter and then decided to play to our offense's weaknesses instead of its strengths.

Re: SECCG Postgame
Although I'm disappointed in not winning the SEC, it's been a beautiful ride this season. We're back, and there's no place to party like Bourbon Street!!
RTR!! :BigA:

Great game and even greater season. I am disappointed though, when it's within your grasp it just hard.
Sugar Bowl bound here!! Beat the Utes!!
Oh yeah, I can't pull for UF in the title game, sorry I know it's an SEC team, but I can't pull for U Meyer.

Tebow:
Ok.. I see why all the buzz. Good kid and remarkable player. Lot's of man love going ok, rubbing heads with team mates, whatever. And were those tears on the sideline? Big night for you, Congrats.
Tebow, you tried and tried to carry the ball in for a TD, didn't you? Play after play was designed for you to carry the pigskin into the endzone, yet we just kept stopping you! Remember that. There is no footage, no photo... cause we did not allow that to happen.
So proud of the Crimson Tide! Now all you folks that CAN, get your butts to T-town to WELCOME HOME OUR BOYS! Show 'em some much deserved LOVE!:BigA:

Re: SECCG Postgame
Rematch? I was so thrilled with the team. Everybody wanted the gators to win, and we hung in there. The blitzs in the 4th quarter just killed us.
Our 11 year old is taking this too hard, kids tease him at schoool/church. We can take it you and me, but I'm worried about him.
He wants to wear his Bama polo to church and I said OK.
Keep your head up.

Re: SECCG Postgame
I am really bummed that we lost. I feel like we totally dominated the game until 9 min to go. I'm not sure what happened that we went from 20-17 to losing 31-20 in that last 9 minutes. Seems that 4 plays were the difference in the game: Arenas catching ball at 3, the 2 penalties where we stopped them, and the fake field goal. Other than that, we were where we needed to be.
Re: SECCG Postgame
This is what I thought as well, JM stated he could not get away with what got us here, but that drive, starting at our 40 only down 4, he went away with what got us there. If we run it down there throat, we are playing for a national championship.
Re: SECCG Postgame
Three things:
1: If I had a Heisman vote it would go to Tebow. I don't like him but I cannot deny he's one of the best college football players ever.
2: John Parker Wilson is the single toughest quarterback we've ever had. That guy is absolute nails.
3: (watching the Big 12 Championship) Is the SEC Championship the only conference championship game that EVER sells out?

Re: SECCG Postgame
Great game. I congratulate the players, and coaches who have worked their rear ends off. Its been a great season, and I'd like to see us finish the season with a win in the Sugar Bowl.
I agree I didn't understand the long pass down the field in the 4th when we had the lead. We should have either handed the ball off, ran playaction, or atleast ran a higher percentage pass play. Other than that I thought everyone involved did an excellent job.

Re: SECCG Postgame
Special teams needs work. Evey SEC team seems to beat us in that catagory.
Play calling in the 4th. I'll never understand the 40 yard pass on 1st down.
After the 15 play 91 yard drive I thought we had them.
Been a great year. I wish we were playing OSU.
Roll Tide all!

Re: SECCG Postgame
Knoxgator, the UF offensive line was not the game changer. Our D took away much of the short and medium distance middle of the field from the Florida O- at least until the last meaningful UF drive. To do that, you have to be willing to put your corners on an island and hope they can defend the deep pass with little or no safety help. UF won more of those battles than they lost but the O line protection wasn't that great. Tebow had to make great throws out of a collapsing pocket but fortunately for him, his receivers were wide open when he threw deep.
Cody did exactly what he was supposed to in this game- he took a double team, cut off the cut-back counter gap on a couple of occasions and forced Florida runs to the outside instead of back into the middle from the edge where they are usually most successful. We won the line of scrimmage battle until the fourth quarter.
UF played an almost perfect game but we let them have the ball too much in the fourth quarter by not running the ball when we should have and could have.
