The game starts at 8, not that I expect anyone to go. I've recently begun to contemplate at what point are losses beneficial for a program to move forward?

Since the buyout is big the season needs to be a disaster. We are fast approaching that fact. I am not seeing as much "he is gonna be here at least another year" type posts. As the season goes on I predict more and more blowouts. The players are human and it is really hard to get up for a game and adranaline isn't kicking in to give 110%. Coleman becomes a cavern. The accountants will start running the pros and cons of paying a buyout or losing revenue in the future with a lame duck coach. Bill Battle will try to make his lasting dent on the athletic department.

Chris Walsh said the buyout is 5 million so it's not the 8 or 9 million we had originally discussed earlier. 5 million is big but not something that should hold you back from acting in the best interest of the program. I guess it's just up to Battle to decide what is in our best interest.

sucks to admit, but I've approached the point of literally not caring if Alabama wins or not.
I'd like to win obviously, but it will just prolong Bama from being able to move forward in the long run.

I'm going. They'll hang in there, but I'm not expecting a win.

We are having a white out tonight. Wish we could use white out on most of this season.

When I thought of Anthony Grant year 5, that's definitely what I envisioned

yep, losses to Alabama will be marked as "bad losses" for some teams come selection Sunday.

Meanwhile for Bama, the closest they'll come to selection Sunday is choosing what to eat for Sunday dinner at Piccadillys.

Big game and tough turnaround.

I'm thinking Bama 65-61

I have a feeling that we are just going to get abused inside and lose handily. Hope I'm wrong.
