Like it or not Bama fans, this game should scare you. Reports out of camp have Bo Wallace healthy and strong and performing well.


Oh dude. I was totally discounting that Ole Miss game till I saw your post. I mean we all know that reports out of practice/camp are almost always over the top critical of players so Wallace must really be doing something for people to compliment his camp. I am not going to be able to sleep this weekend. Preciate your interest in the program.

What keeps your players motivated since it seems like it's NC or bust?


Getting to the NFL and kicking arse and enjoying the whole experience both on and off the field... for starters.

Players don't mail it in for the season when fans do. Players play and are forced to find their own drive, and that comes directly from coaching and their own natural drive.

Fact #3: That Bama team played with complacency after the LSU victory. They were NOT as hungry as previous teams.

Fact #4: This Bama team is pissed!! Those two losses may have been EXACTLY what they needed to get that edge back.

Fact #5: If CNS truly opens up the playbook and let play every single snap, up to the end of the game, as if the score is 0-0, this team will do some serious damage and WILL be in the 4-team playoff.
at your use of fact here

And the timing of a loss matters too. If Alabama starts 0-2 this year then makes the Sugar Bowl I'll be pumped as hell. But if your team either wins the NC or loses out in the final minute almost every year for 6 years you tend to not care about bowl games. But you're probably just being a mean troll, arse

Florida AND Ole Miss can both beat Bama.

Using the logic of the Sugar Bowl loss, if you lose this game, does Bama mail it in for the season? What keeps your players motivated since it seems like it's NC or bust?



The ones playing for draft position will go hard, and the natural hard workers will go hard. But the young players may throw in the towel, it just depends. This 2014 class we brought in has a lot of high character guys with a great work ethic, but you never know.

I didnt see this. I saw our players playing very hard in both the AU and OU games.


totally disagree. if you followed the RL program half as much as you post on message boards, you would know of the post LSU letdown. It was widely known that players were not giving 100% effort well ahead of the two losses that ended the season.

I was of the impression that they came into their own as the season progressed. They had some very skakey moments early on mostly due to the o line but started to look like legit NC contenders as the year progressed. I'm gonna get shite on for this but they should have won the Auburn game by double digits. I can't remember enough of the game to back this up but I believe they went into "protect the lead" mode and AU is way too good to lose to a team doing that. I was shite tanked and haven't seen the game since but that was my feeling coming out of it. If I'm wrong, go ahead and bash me.

The fans who are claiming we only lost to OU because the players and coaches didn't care are the same lazy arse sidewalker fans who didn't give a shite about that game either....until we lost. How the players/coaches feel and how our shitty fans feel are entirely different. The players wanted to win. What kind of fricking idiot thinks AJ didn't care if he won his last game in an Alabama uniform?

If they had won I'm sure they would have celebrated like it was important.

I said on here before the Sugar Bowl was even played that I didn't care about the game and it was meaningless to me. I only watched a little bit of the game and it didn't affect my mood.

WTF? Read what I said again. You are just trying to argue for the hell of it. I admit he wanted to win, yet lost. I think all our shitty fans need to quit being bitches and admit it when we get beaten. I'm doing the opposite of sugarcoating that game.

Alabama has more Sugar Bowl appearances and more wins than any other team. I'd love to hear you explain your disagreement.
