Obviously you guys were lied to about the improvements hurts made over the off season. Now there's a very real chance that you could still not lose a game just because of how good every other part of your team is outside of place kicking, but does it still bother you that your qb has trouble with the forward pass and would you be open to seeing what tua can do?

I think most bama fans were skeptical, you can't just fix that style in months.

I think ppl are overreacting with Hurts passing. Hes good enough with the talent Bama has. And hes a great runner with a ridiculously strong lower body to break arm tackles. Bama will be in the national championship game again this year.

Oh, we were? Florida State is easily the most talented defense Alabama will see until LSU.

The OL was more of a problem. If Hurts isn't mobile, last night could have gone bad.

Who difinitively stated this?
Further, he was up against a pretty good defense with a first time OC.
I'll wait for judgement

I think you could destroy TWO qbs if you do what you are suggesting

What bothers me the most is.....Bert is still FAT! I heard he was gonna try Jenny Craig, or Sweating to the Oldies. Why is he such a disgusting pig? Nevermind, he's a razorback.

Uh, he looked improved. Great touch on some deep passes and his awareness is outstanding. He ran a lot but the OLine wasn't helping much

Bama played the best defense they will see all year last night. They had 269 yards total offense. 1 big pass play for 50 and a run for 39. 2 plays accounted for a third of the Bama offensive total.

Why don't you tell us how you feel after October 14th?

Honestly, Hurts didn't really have an option but to bail early. Pass protection was not good last night, and RBs struggles in pass blocking too.

Regardless, I'll take the position we are in and dealing with the issues we have over being any other team in the country.

He made good throws when they let him. Dime to Ridley for a TD. Another one to Ridley on the sideline, but caught just out of bounds. Threw a perfect pass to #11 in the endzone and it went off his hands. Hit the rookie WR on a rollout pass that was called back for holding.

Bama playcalling and OL were far more of an issue than Hurts' ability.

I didn't think he looked that bad.

I can promise you LSU's defense will put up a better fight.

Hey if you guys are fine with it then congrats. I said in op you guys could still very realistically when the natty with him at qb just on the sheer talent of everyone around him but just think about how much better you would be if tua is a legit 5 star talent who has 1-3rd rd nfl potential?

Hurts has a lot of strengths, he can in fact make the passes, he is experienced and is very poised. Why would we trade that for an unknown?

It's better coached, but FSU is more talented. Especially up front.

I agree, this years Florida State defense has a ton of talent. First and second rounders everywhere. But our freshman class is probably the best we've had at LSU and they will only get better. And as a Bama fan you know our defense always gets up to play Bama. I just do not see Bama putting up 24 points on our defense.

Bama will score more and not average starting field position of 45 yard line. It will be 7 in row when the clock hits zero for Bama.

Did you not see our pass protection break down last night? Jalen did as well as he could under the circumstances. Do you really not know football or are you just being facetious?
