Interesting that no one from Alabama's been complaining about Michigan's cheating scandal

Because Alabama's cheated so much over the course of its history, its fans know when to shut up about the subject.

It's been said that coaches don't ever leave Alabama voluntarily --- they're either fired for not performing well enough or there's...........SCANDAL (see Mike Price)!!!

Is scandal the exception or the rule of the Tide program? You be the judge.

Consider Bama's long history of 'yore cheatin' heart....

-- Albert!! Albert!!!!!! Yes, you!! Albert Means of Memphis, Tennessee. He tested so low on his SATs, a toilet wouldn't have accepted him. Bama arranged to have someone else take his tests AND paid his high school coaches $150,000 to make sure he went to....ALABAMA.

-- Antonio Langham. Lordamercy. What a mess. Scandal led to Mike Dubose's hiring...which led to Albert!!! above.

-- Speaking of coaches, there's Mr. Paul Bryant. Specifically, Bryant & Bobby Dodd (Georgia Tech). It was known during the early days of Bryant's coaching at Bama that he taught his players to play dirty (this doesn't include SEC Home Office refs who cheated for him on the road vs. opponents).

The Atlanta newspaper press caught on to this after Dodd's Georgia Tech team played Alabama and one of its players was severely injured by one of Bama's players.

The Saturday Evening Post magazine also accused Coach Bryant of fixing a game in 1962 between Bama and Georgia involving the Bulldogs HC, Wally Butts. Coach Butts sued the magazine's publisher, Curtis Publishing Co., and won over $3 million for himself and coach Bryant.

While Bryant denied both game fixing and teaching his players to play dirty, his reputation suffered greatly during the 1960s. Many were calling for his resignation.

A book written by James Kirby titled, "Fumble", reveals that Bryant began to change his ways after these incidents and was determined that no one would ever again dirty-up his nor Alabama's reputation.

This resulted in Bear Bryant becoming more viewed as one like a nice and kind father-figure, the image that the Alabama faithful could be comfortable with and reside with even today.

There are more, but this is enough.

Oh, let's have some more fun!! Let's throw in the SEC Home Office Referees at this year's 2023 SEC Championship Game (we wonder if the refs also received 2023 Championship rings for winning the game for Bama? The SEC Office is in Birmingham and you must be a graduate of Alabama in order to work there).

-- Bama Incomplete pass - no review
-- UGA complete pass - review
-- Bama facemask - no flag
-- UGA clean tackle - flag

These are just a few. But, you get the picture.

Alabama Cheating has become a state Landmark in Tuscaloosa. We all have to deal with it.

LSU...we Dawgs fans sympathize with Tiger Nation for all that you've had to put up with, too. We've not suffered alone.

I figured Georgia fans would be busy working on the narrative about their thriving dynasty. Interesting tactic.

Saban doesn’t have enough analysts so he hires the Michigan guy to cheat that way

Saban probably has a time clock for all analysts on staff and are required to work turnarounds

Alabama fans usually wait until they lose to break out the excuses.

Something more interesting than JetDawg’s alleged thoughts is that I keep getting ads here on the rant for University of New hampshire football tickets WTF.

Georgia went from 1980 to 2021 to win a championship. You do it back to back. And now to see it all slip away and see Bama take your place (thanks for keeping the seat warm).

It's understandable for you to be angry because you know the waiting for another will be longer. I would say I feel your pain but that would be a lie. Bama is about to win another one. In the back of your mind you know Bama is just better.

I don't disagree, Alabama fans are the worst losing fanbase out there because they aren't used to it.
