I don't think I've heard anyone referred to as 'underrated' more than AJ. His underratedness has taken on a life of its own.

Think about this. The greatest coach in college football history does not understand passing, but Telefawx does, because Bear Bryant (a college wide receiver) ran the wishbone for a period of time.


No I'm dismissing a simple generality spoken by a coach whose words of wisdom aren't applicable. AJ made a terrible decision and there is no way that receiver should have been thrown that ball much less expected to catch it. I don't get why y'all don't see this. Gumps be gumpin I guess.

What gave it away? Bell open, pass on target - just the way atm planned it.

Bama fans don't watch football. That was classic coming from agnes.

It's amazing the lengths some opposing fans will go to in order to avoid paying McCarron a compliment.

Bell was open over the middle for a split second. A&M baited McCarron into throwing the football but Kenny Bell had the ball in his hands while he was in the air. He knew before he even caught the ball that he was going to get lit up. It is his job to take the hit and come down with the football. Obviously kudos has to be given to the A&M safety. He made a good hit and forced the ball to pop out from Bell's hands.

As a matter of fact that is the exact presnap confusion and read we wanted to bait AJ on... So yes. If given the option I'm sure A&M would have played it the exact same way 100 time out of 100. Ot worked exactly how we planned It. I really love how this is going straight over your heads. It makes the win that much more fun. You all literally have no idea what you're watching. You thought he was open and the pass was on target. Hahahah so precious.

This is what y'all don't get. It wasn't that great of a play. He barely moved and was able to deliver that blow. The receiver ran right in to him. The 5th string walk on could have done that.

It is amazing how far y'all will go to act like he didn't make a glaring mistake...

He definitely wasn't wide open but the pass was most definitely on target. I consider a ball hitting a player in the numbers, no matter if he's blanketed or wide the freak open to be an accurate throw.

It's only a mistake because it was intercepted. Had Bell managed to hang onto the football it would have been considered a great read and throw.

Chris Leak is more underrated.

He still should have caught the ball. I have seen receivers take worse hits over the middle and still manage to hold onto the football.

No. Not at all. This is why you you have no idea what you are talking about and Nick Saban would laugh at you for living in a "result's oriented world" instead of a "process oriented world." Because had Matthews tried to make an INT on the play, he probably could have, he just chose to go for the easy pass break up instead. It wasn't as if that throw was out of the defender's reach. It was a terrible, stupid, throw, regardless of the outcome.

No he shouldn't have. If anything Matthews should have caught the ball cleanly without your receiver getting a finger on it. He had enough time, he just has a headhunter mentality and saw such a ridiculous opportunity for a hit that a smart, Saban coached team, shouldn't have given him and took it.

Kenny Bell should have caught the football. I have seen wide receivers survive much worse and still come down with the ball.

And I've seen wide receivers completely outrun a football because the DB intercepted it? Which was far more likely than him holding on to that.
