I think under the circumstances he’s done pretty well. I feel sorry for Nate.Win out and leave no doubt. Beat au, beat an and m. Beat everybody. So much animosity out there towards Bama….yeah I’m not happy either about how everything this week has been handled by Coach Oates, the school admin etc but enough is enough. Sorry for rambling on…Roll tide
Didn’t some journalist say Alabama was a basketball state? Doesn’t look that way after today.At worst we share it but would be sweeter to win it outright.
Also, one of the talking heads said if Auburn loses to KY (as the they did today) and then us and then to the Vols they risk missing the dance. I think they only have 1 or 2 quad one wins at the moment. So there's even more motivation to finish strong. Beat the barn. Hurt their program.
And then beat A$M and hold the title outright!

I think we are almost at a spot where we are a lock for a #1. Maybe it’s Auburn. But I think one more win and it’s a lock.If Alabama beats AU, they win the SEC title outright regardless of the A&M game.
But a win vs A&M would help with maintaining the overall #1 NCAA seed, and it would just be sweet and appropriate and improve Bama’s recent record vs A&M.
I've worked at my current job 9+ years and some people still call me by my last name.Can we all please learn how to spell Oats correctly? The man is about to win his 2nd SEC title in 3 years and we still can’t spell his name correctly. It’s O A T S of the oatmeal variety, not O A T E S, of the Hall and Oates fame. Roll Tide.
Have you won 2 SEC Championships in 3 years though? (Sarcasm font)I've worked at my current job 9+ years and some people still call me by my last name.

I just tried a bunch of sims based around splitting the last 2 vs AU and A&M![]()

this is why I say this. If you change Alabamas last two games to losses it still has us as the #2 overall seed.
Don’t say that! We always seem to hit the “buzzsaw.” Providence. UCLA. Heck even in the Elite 8 run, we lost to the eventual champion. It’s time we are the buzzsaw.Proud of this team and the guts/mental fortitude they've shown. No matter what happens from here, the season was a huge success for our program. Post season is a weird thing in CBB though. I see a possible scenario where we hit an unexpected buzzsaw early. It will be interesting to see if we can, as Saban says, sustain our performance.
My goal is to win the National Championship. I am worried that our slow starts against a really good team might be difficult/impossible to overcome. House money is right!25-4 - we aren’t on the bubble. We should be worried about nothing. We are playing on house money.![]()
