Blah blah blah. Go back to June and read through the SEC Rant. Otherwise, shut the frick up.


At least you are confirming that you are a halfwit. Is there an ignore feature on these forums? You're not making the cut.

One of those ints came off just hiding the coverage well.


Actually KB caught the ball and then coughed it up. Not AJ's fault.

You want to place a perma-ban bet on whether or not people were saying stuff like that on this forum?

Name your bet.

Bama is a 3 or 4 loss team this year.

Yeah, but you can see AJ on the sideline saying he read a different coverage and that's the reason he made the throw to Bell. Should have never been thrown.

Of course people were saying it. People were also saying Alabama would win it all. When you have 5,000+ users online at all times of the day what do you expect? You don't get voted into the top-3 in preseason if you're expected to rebuild. That's a fact.

ESPN <3s Bama -- Alabama will repeat as national champions

There's a positive to this - as an Auburn fan you get to save some money this holiday season.

The LSU game took a lot out of bama. AJ looked pretty flat all day and the defense had to recover in time to chase Manziel all over the field. Sam Montgomery said tackling him was like trying to play tag with a cat. I think the bama front learned just how true that statement was. A&M was probably the worst team they could have played after a trip to Death Valley.

Especially after your defense was.. frankly.. exposed as just "good" instead of great. You may have the least physical CBs Saban has ever coached and that's a huge part of the problem IMO. Weaker secondary than Saban-coached teams are used to and the inability to generate a pass rush without bringing extra defenders makes any team with a QB dangerous to Bama.

Emotional win leads to a flat performance in quarter 1.. and against a team that could probably score 20-30 points every game vs Bama.

Biggest problem. It's been inconsistent and don't have the one guy to push the pocket in like we've had in the past.

Williams is sick IMO but your other 2 DTs leave alot to be desired. You guys have any incoming freshman who may make an impact on the DL?

Jesse takes up a couple of guys, but he doesn't have the same push Chapman had or Cody either.

I am an LSU fan, but even I can't agree with that. We moved the ball in the first half against bama, but made mistakes with the fake fg and the long fg that we missed.

I think we owned them in the second, outside of the last two minutes.

Before the start of the season, I thought losses were possible against Arky, UT, LSU and A&M.

I honestly don't know if Bama beats UGA, but winning the west and being in the top 5 in November is an accomplishment, considering the talent level compared to last year.
