Lots of factors this year that came into play.

Nah man i'm serious, but a little tipsy.

I'm seriously wondering how this team lost three times.

It's not 100% flame.

The players felt entitled to win because of the pre-season rank and the Florida beatdown. Youth, immaturity, inexperience, and some bad play calling cost them the games.

By the looks of the Capitol One bowl, it seems like the coaching staff also learned from their mistakes.

2011 Bama will have same number of losses as 2000 UT. talent doesn't always win you games.

Lol. U must forget the times ive called u a bitch for hating on Dooley.

Try managing 115 18-22 year olds the year after winning a national title, and on a two year regular season unbeaten streak, and tell me how it goes for you. It ain't so easy when you're being told all off-season you're invincible, and every opponent is gunning for you. There's a reason not many teams have repeated.

No I hope he wins every game, I just don't think he will from what I've seen. I really hope he proves me wrong.

the one thing that Saban does that drove me crazy as a fan of my team and I am sure probably drives Bama fans crazy is that he is too damn conservative on offense. I remember when we had Jamarcus and all kinds of great receivers and all Saban wanted to do was run the ball 50 times a game. I hated it then, but after having Crowton air it out with a RS freshmen a few years ago, I understand why.

I think he just lets his OC's do whatever. Hence, the descrepancy(sp?). He's more a defense guy.

A defense guy that let Garrett Gilbert torch his NFL level secondary last year in the second half.

I'm holding my opinion until after next season. Bama Fans covered for Nick this season but won't next year if he loses 3 or more.

Meh. Bama's offense could be really pedestrian next year. But it didn't stop them last year.

Didn't Saban have some pretty productive receivers at LSU? Clayton and Reed come to mind. Saban is like Stallings in that he is a defensive coach and he is going to play to that.

I like what he does on offense. I would like to see improvement in the redzone offense, but it's hard to complain about 30+ PPG for the last three years.

UT's offense could be better than UA's next year.

Bray for Heisman.

no excuse for blowing a 24 point lead against your biggest rival. great game day coaches don't do that.
I'll fold if he gets one more NC. but until then I'll still have my doubts.
