This is some great reading on a rainy morning and will be a good reminder for some of you.
quote:

Where to begin? DeVonta Smith won the Heisman Trophy with perhaps the most dominant wide receiving performance in college football history. Smith ended the CFP title game with 12 receptions for 214 yards and 3 touchdowns — all coming in the 1st half before he departed following the Tide’s opening possession of the 3rd quarter with a hand injury. He finished with 23 TD catches this season, an SEC record, and 1,856 yards, another SEC record. Smith ended his unforgettable career — a career that began on the national stage by hauling in Tua Tagovailoa’s 2nd-and-26 dart to win the 2017 national title — with a school- and SEC-record 46 career touchdown receptions that also ranks 5th all-time across NCAA teams. He finished with 3,964 receiving yards on 235 receptions.


quote:

Quarterback Mac Jones finished 3rd in the Heisman voting, behind Smith and Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence with an unforgettable season of his own. The junior will likely head to the NFL after throwing for exactly 4,500 yards and 41 touchdowns against just 4 interceptions. Jones dissected Ohio State for 464 passing yards and 5 touchdowns despite seemingly never having to make a difficult throw. The literal afterthought in Alabama’s quarterback room behind Tua Tagovailoa and Jalen Hurts, Jones did what neither Alabama’s sweet Hawaiian prince nor the starting quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles did — go wire-to-wire to win it all.


quote:

Najee Harris? All the multi-purpose running back did en route to finishing 5th in the Heisman voting was rush for 1,466 yards in his senior season on 251 carries and score 26 touchdowns. Harris heads to the league having finished with 3,843 rushing yards and 46 rushing scores, and 781 receiving yards on 80 receptions with 11 more scores.



THREE Heisman Finalists?!

A civilized society: “Hey Alabama congrats on your crazy good football team you fielded in 2020, that was one special squad.” “Why thank you LSU, you guys really had something special going in 2019 too! It’s great that we can appreciate high level football together and get along as friendly conference rivals.”

The Rant: “durrr LSU wuz better xD 2019 is best Alabama squad ever bitches xD I make LSu fan mad now xD 2020 was so much better 10 sec wins bitch roll ride xD”

…….thank god we have the Rant version and not the civilized one, this place would be hella boring without the butthurt Cajun baws and angry tide rollers

2019 LSU obviously better because we had O as the head Coach. Imagine if Saban coached that team.

I wonder how many hours Bama spent practicing in the Covid off-season while most others schools were shut down?

Yes I’m hating.

I am so jealous of Bama fans, must be nice. I am hyped about Mizzou having a recruiting class that is currently ranked 15th nationally and 5th in the SEC - it will be our best class ever. That would get you fired at Bama.

It's a shame covid kept last season from being even better for the Tide.

The stats that team would have had with 15 games instead of 13 games. Bama would have went 15-0 with nonconference wins over fellow blue bloods USC, ND and Ohio St.

Mac would have had another 500-600 yards passing with 5-10 more touchdowns. Smith another 200-300 yards receiving with another 2-5 touchdowns. Najee another 200-300 yards rushing with 2-5 more touchdowns. Metchie would have went over 1,000 yards receiving.
