The 2008 BlackOut

"This is an old fashion country butt-kicking"
"And Georgia is providing the butt"


Great game and until that point, the last time Alabama blew out a Top 10 opponent was the 2005 Florida game. And before that...um...i don't know, Florida in the 99 SEC Championship?

This is the only game under Saban that's absolutely shocked me- I didn't give us a chance.

Watching it now. It's amazing how much better we are now than we were then.

I agree to both. I watched the first half earlier... we looked like that Michigan State team we beat 49-7. Damn. It's really amazing what Saban did with that team, with such little depth.

And about playing Georgia. I don't know why, but a hatred of Georgia came more naturally to me than Tennessee. I was taught to hate Tennessee; I just irrationally hate everything about Georgia. I'd really like to see us play them more. I wish the SEC could find a way to get us, Auburn, Georgia, and Tennessee all in the same division.

Well you should be able to hate both equally. Along with Mississppi, Georgia is our biggest boarder neighbor, in parallel world it's UGA that's our tied for 2nd biggest rival. Most of the UT hatred came from them being Bear Bryant's personal most hated rival and, more recently, Phil being a gleeful snitch. As of right now, Georgia really isn't a major rival in anything other than Gymnastics (though Suzanne Yoculan is enough to garner hatred)

I should note that Georgia 2007 was the first game I went to that we lost.

I hate their fans who act like they're world beaters when they're, in fact, 4th at best in SEC history. Their campus sucks (Athens is great, I admit), their dog is stupid. I just HATE them. I think everyone has their own personal rival. Mine is Georgia
