Here is my take. A lot of people will say how well bama played. I unfortunately don't see it that way.
quote:

Any jitters we had that could have been tamed down wasn't because of several opportunities given to Alabama. Changing the defense hurt and you could see that in the first possession. The jitters kept up. The early ref calls kept those jitters going. The juggling call where they called eiffert out of bounds and clearly he was in and not juggling the ball hurt a lot. Then the call with the punt coverage where our player was being pushed into their returner and still did not touch him did us in. Any hope that our kids had left in them was gone at that point. Players missing tackles, being way out of position, soft coverage in the secondary all hurt us badly. The seams were too big. Saban saw that and started throwing the ball.

The entire game from play one was a loss because we changed our game play. Its very simple. The tide did not win that game last night. We lost it.

I hate laying blame on anyone, but the coaches will hold my blame for this one. How Kelly either let someone talk him into changing the game defensively and offensively or making the changes himself set us up for the loss from the get go. If someone were to tell me we would change the entire defensive scheme and throw the ball more than run before the game I would have not let it happen. Play what's worked all year.

These people are delusional.. Brought to you from the one and only "Irish Envy."

Notre Dame and Alabama prevail in a rare lopsided double-loss double victory!

You lose by a fieldgoal in ot you might have an argument
When you have your shite pushed in like a state prisoner
you might want to give a little credit to the other team
That being said, the juggling call in the TE was was a
bad call IMO. Not that it would have made any difference.

Someone needs to clue this guy in on exactly what happened to them last night. Bama imposed "their" will on Notre Dame, Bama played "their" game the entire night.

Okay...when you lose a game 42-14, you can't use that argument. When the winning team gains 530 yards of offense, you can't use that argument. When you don't get on the scoreboard until late in the third quarter, you can't use that argument. Clearly one team was better than the other.

Get within a TD of an SEC team and maybe you could say that.

"In psychology and logic, rationalization (also known as making excuses) is an unconscious defense mechanism in which perceived controversial behaviors or feelings are logically justified and explained in a rational or logical manner in order to avoid any true explanation, and are made consciously tolerable – or even admirable and superior – by plausible means."
