Say, how's he doing as a starter now?



I don't know and don't care because I don't judge the worth of an Alabama player by what he does in the pros. I judge his worth by what he does at Alabama.

Hard to be better than he is right now. That catch towards the end of the super bowl was something that maybe 2 other player in the NFL could have made. (too bad it was wasted with the falcons coaches being idiots

With the amount of 5* players Saban has recruited the last 10 years he should be able to field a whole pro bowl game. There's a reason he can't and the reason bama players limp into the league


I love how awesome Saban is that the only opposing fans come up with is "well even though he is currently under greatest run in history, but it should be better.

Honestly with the talent he's had, he should've won more championships.

Luckily we're a laid back group and are content with 4 titles in 8 years even though clearly he should have won 7 or 8.

He's been within a hair's breadth of winning it every year since 2008, sans the 2010 football season when we lost three games.

2008 - Undefeated entering the SEC Championship Game. Would have played against Oklahoma for the 'ship had we won that game.

2009 - National Champions

2010 - Lost three games. Were completely out of it after losing @ LSU.

2011 - National Champions

2012 - National Champions

2013 - Kick Six. Had we beaten Auburn we would have beaten Missouri in Atlanta and played Florida State for all the marbles in the 'ship.

2014 - Made it to the semi-finals of the College Football Playoff. Lost to the eventual national champions (who were very talented themselves).

2015 - National Champions

2016 - Lost in the National Championship Game on what was virtually the last play of the game.

It's difficult to keep players motivated and playing at a high level through 12-15 games. Eventually you are going to slip up. While Alabama's roster is loaded with four and five-star talent, the teams Alabama plays on a weekly basis are pretty talented themselves. Catch us on an off day and the chances of you beating us improve dramatically, especially if you have a talented team and an excellent game plan.

All those championships and just a handful of players making it in the NFL, what a shame.

Otherwise known as more pro bowlers than any other college football program.

Shame.

You'll have to get on her visitors list at Tutwiller Womens Prison. I assume she'll be there the rest of her life for murdering another women who wasn't upset enough after the Kick Six

50% of 5-stars are undrafted. Only 30% are drafted in the 1st or 2nd round.

So if 32% of Alabama 5-stars go to the Pro Bowl...........woah. We're kicking arse.

You're approaching this the wrong way, far to much logic and facts to get through to the barners.......

But fun to watch nonetheless.
