Bama beat an overrated ATM team... They shouldn't even be ranked.. Bama hasn't achieved anything at this point. tdecline is real and Saban will be coaching Texas next year...

I don't know how it looked on TV, but even the Coaches were jumping up and down and having a ball BDS was on fire.

It's time to buy into Kiffin's Krimson Korner!!!

Gotta say I was proud of the student section as well. A lot more stayed through the beatdown than the usual.

I was ecstatic that Saban let them play the entire game(ie not running up the middle the entire second half).. Was great seeing Coker getting meaningful reps.. Didn't run the score up unnecessarily but actually gave the backups some meaningful reps... That was playing for 60 minutes!!

Not really the definition of a meaningful rep. Meaningful reps don't happen when the game is over, i.e., when you're up 52 in the second half.

First time I’ve ever been able to hear cheering and chanting from the Alabama locker room from the elevators heading up to the media room.

This is one of if not the best coaching weeks that Saban has had at Bama. They talked during the game about how the coaches spent all week building the team up and reminding them how good they are. It showed.

I do think Sabans rant helped take some pressure off the players, but Gary Danielson gave out a nugget during the game, he said Kiffen told him he could help Simms more at home than on the road.
Meaning to me that the crowd noise on the road hurts him signaling in plays to Simms, who can't read the defenses well enough to change them himself.
So this is why we struggled on the road, but have played lights out at home, offensively speaking.
We need to have the STUPID SIGNS like Auburn if this is the problem.
Hell instead of simplyfying our defenses maybe we need some of those signs also. I am all for using other peoples technics against them, if they work.
The game is being played at a fast pace, hand signals are out, we need something big that conveys our mesage quick.

Was really nice to see so much emotion today. Last week I felt like most of the problems came from the fact they just seemed to be going through the motions. I really want to see this team take the positive vibes on the road next week, because we've been a totally different team on the road than we have at home, but today was very encouraging.

Shannon Terry from BOL posted a little nugget that I thought was awesome.
After the Reuben Foster tackle before halftime, a ton of bama players went out on the field to congratulate him and show how passionate they were about the game. One of the officials warned Saban during halftime that they would be penalized if the players did that again. Saban, paraphrased, basically said "I don't give a damn. This team is playing with a lot of emotion, and we can live with the penalty."
It was paraphrased on BOL. I wonder what Saban actually said.

Turn the guys loose. The D was really impressive, 1992 good on Saturday. Yeah, A&M isn't very good but they can still play a little offense.

On more than one occasion, Lane signaled to Sims. Prime example was the post fade to Coop in the second quarter. It was a subtle signal but Sims took it and delivered the ball. I expect more of that, especially on the road, as well as seeing Sims become more mobile.
Danielson even stated as such. His praise for Coker came because he said Lane is not as worried with running Sims out more in the offense. Use his speed to his advantage. Sims played well, looks so much better when he can roll out, and made some good decisions. He just needs to learn how to take a hit... or not take a hit... and he will be fine. With Coker getting better and better, that is the security Lane needs to let Sims go. Our offense is so much better that way. And it allows us to speed the pace up when we want. It's a win-win for us. Look out SEC. The Tide is starting to Roll.
