Thank you for improving our offense leaps and bounds.


Thank you for making the pass a legitimate threat. Teams can't stack nine in the box anymore like UT did 09 and the first half of 11 - and nearly beat us.

Thank you for developing AJ into the most efficient passer in the country.

Thank you for not going ultraconversative every single time we got a lead, the way McElwain did. That costs us games before you got here.

Thank you for making us a team that can win with offense, even when the D breaks down.

Plain and simple, we wouldn't have the 2012 NC without you. We wouldn't have beaten A&M this year without you. We wouldn't have beaten LSU last year without you.

Thanks Coach Nuss, you're one of the best in the biz. Best of luck to you

He's done a great job. Our defense was a much bigger issue the last two games than his offense was.

Dude, he did a good job last year, but he totally shite the bed in our last two games..like, bad. I get you're on his bandwagon, but shite dude, he regressed like a motherfricker.

Thanks for not giving it to Henry more against Oklahoma too!

This is obvious to everyone except for apparently half the tards on this board

He's the best OC we've had under Saban, and it isn't close. I wish him well

Our defense was shitty, but you have to admit our playcalling left much to be desired.

I don't see how more people don't understand this. 45 points is 45 points. We shouldn't have to score 46 to win

How many times was our defense on the field with Oklahoma starting with a short field? It was at least two from what I remember, probably three. If we don't get away from our gameplan after that TJ fumble, we run away with that game.

So calling for Yeldon to run up the gut when AU is loading the box and we've been killing them with short throws all night makes sense?

You telling me we can't get one damn yard on the ground to win the game?

If you can't get one yard on 4th and 1, then you don't deserve to win.

I liked McElwain more as our OC than Nussmeier.

Either way, thank you Coach Nuss for your time at The Capstone and I wish you the best of luck!!

The 2012 A&M game, where Lacy was gashing them but we were hellbent on throwing it.....even when we were down 6.

Again, Nuss was terrible at "taking what the defense will give you."

With Butterfingers McFumblyhands?

I wouldn't trust Yeldon if we were up by 3 TDs against Georgia Southern.
