Both teams OL looked lost. Even with two out, that is an ominous sign that there might be problems. It is hard to go injury free all season in the OL.

It's a good thing we don't have to go against the best Dline in the country every game.

Define ominous. Tell us how you think they'll rank at the end of the year. Feel free to go on record. :P

Just because you want to say and believe people are insecure in a disproportionately larger number for a particular fanbase does not make it so.


And neither does your rebuttal. Maybe I should have rephrased the level of insecurity - it seems most Bama fans need to alleviate their insecurities in life through Bama football. The self-serving championing is very unbecoming.

Every year our rivals get wood after our spring game. If the offense looks good, then our defense is going to suck and vice versa. When will you little nuggets ever learn? Our D is going to be excellent, offense will be fine once healthy and we settle on a QB that gets all the reps. Skill players are best in conference, OL will be good and Kiffin could take a monkey and make a good QB.

Do you agree or disagree that there IS a psychological reason behind your response to belittle or demean people that follow a different football team than yours?

I do not put much into Spring Games. But if I did, I would say the OL issues are a bigger problem than QB. Last year Kiffin could hide any deficiencies by running Henry 30 times behind their OL. Nothing today showed that as an option.

My response is a direct result of threads like this, in a forum that is shared. It's calling a spade a spade, nothing more nothing less.

I see. So you could have just said you disagree.

The thing is this: you are intentionally speaking on an anonymous public forum about sports that you follow. You actually want what you write to be read by others and appreciated. Your commentary has a goal. That goal is to make less those of another team to validate whatever feeling you have about them. And you do it because you realize the majority of your peers do not follow the same team and it's easy to have them pile on and agree with you.

It's cool. I'm doing the same thing to you. I am trying to "one up" you, man. But I'm right!
Look. The bottom line is that when someone attacks someone, it's almost always out of some form of insecurity. You attacked Bama fans for being insecure, and I'm just here trying to help you see you're one in the same with those you hate. :)

Totally agree, for now. Bo has the tools, though. I feel like that kinda thing will gel. Which will leave us ultimately talking again about the QB deal we got goin on this year.

You know I don't know, but I think CMR did the same thing as well.

You feel you have it all figured out I see. I'll let you have it. You seem to care a lot more than I do.

The most talented position is WR/TE, which is 5/11 of the Offense. When you cannot get production from them due to poor QB play, the numbers are against you. When you have to turn to the Running game without a dominant OL, problems occur. There a some good DLs in SEC next year.

Well, I mean... I guess pardon me for not being doom and gloom with one man's specific opinion. It's hard to be negative after all these years with Saban. The last 2 years I have felt "No way we'll be in the title game... we'll drop 1-3 games, and still be a kick arse team all in all." Both years we contended. One of those two we've won. I felt roughly the same when GMac took the reigns. Saban keeps finding ways to get us super close or even win it all. I do the same thing though when I look at your guys, so I get it. I always try to find why Auburn is gonna suck as opposed to the alternative. Less stressful that way.

No. This was the first year Stoops didn't do it that way for UK. No idea why we switched this year to 1s v 2s.
