I said this in an earlier thread but let's face it..No one is beating Bama this year. Their games aren't even interesting to watch anymore. They have gamed the system so much now that Saban has to make shite up to get mad about. He's manufacturing situations to get upset at his team and coaches because it's the only way to keep them interested.

I enjoy watching other SEC games because there's a lot of drama, good stories, interesting matchups, coaching styles, etc. I thoroughly enjoyed watching UT / A&M. UGA/UT as examples. LSU / UF would have been interesting had they played) but I don't feel that way about the Bama games because they have zero intrigue...the outcome is predetermined. I watched the highlights afterwards, but I didn't see one play of Bama vs. Arkansas live because I was watching the Miami / Florida State game, which was a much more interesting game.

I know what you mean, but they did have to fight like hell to come back against Ole Miss. I feel like A&M and LSU still have a chance against them but if I had to bet on it I'd take Bama.

It HAS to get boring for Bama fans. The most boring season of LSU football I've ever watched was the 2011 season when we won by 50 against everybody except Bama.

Is that something to brag about? You're not the only one.

What us Bama fans want is to keep the Auburn fans interested in Bama games.

I said this last year. Boring old Bama. There is no parity in CFB. It''s always Bama, OSU, Oregon (replaced with Washington this year), and LSU (up until the last couple of years), and FSU. But at least those other teams have SOME competition. Who is Bama's competition? Maybe Ol Miss the last few years in conference? That's been about it.

Not true. Who's going to get the non-offensive TD this week?

Hey man, We trailed Kentucky 3-0. I wondered what the country thought when the saw dat shite

We also fumbled at the one on our opening drive last nite. That was pretty interesting. At least I kinda raised an eyebrow.

I hate close games Bama is in as well. This team is difficult to get a feel for. You see talent everywhere but they don't feel unbeatable at all. Bama can lose easily to Tn, aTm and LSU and still be the most talented team in the country. Lots of distractions guys winning these games getting complacent. Hurts finally acting like a freshman

As someone who remembers the years between Stallings and Saban all too well, I'm enjoying every snap because I know it will be over too soon and we will be looking for the next coach who wants to ride the Tide to greatness.
