1. It's not suddenly bad, its been a gradual decline this season. tDecline

2. If you know what you are watching, you know that it takes effort to make a play. If the opponent catches the ball, you should attack him and take him down with force. You don't just sit back and let the opponent run where he wants to.

3. The team had a brutal stretch of schedule where they faced 3 top 5 teams without a BYE week yet. Maybe they will rebound after the BYE.

aTm is not that bad and Bama still has work to do. You can't really discount a shutout in CFB though. Think back, how many times has your team shut other teams out? When's the last time your team shutout an SEC team?

Not a common occurrence.

This is the same Texas A&M offense that had almost 500 yards of offense and 10 more first downs against the vaunted Ole Miss defense.


Every game and match up is different. I would point out though that Ole Miss played them as the visiting team at night while A&M probably still had a bit of confidence.

Alabama played a Texas A&M team that was thoroughly deflated and they got to play them at Bama.

Not taking away from Bama, what they did was impressive, but do not try and compare it to the Ole Miss vs A&M game.

Not saying that Bama is great or that A&M isn't bad by any stretch of the imagination, but one must always remember that every opponent Bama faces is either terrible or overrated or both. No exceptions.

I've watched posters fall on their own swords after Bama beat their team, claiming that they themselves were overrated and terrible.

That's just how it goes.

Miss. St. beats A&M - "Whoaaaa Miss St. is legit!"

Ole Miss beats A&M - "Whoaaa this Ole Miss team is for real!"

Alabama beats A&M - "Man A&M sucks, Alabama is overrated, Sumlin really isn't a HUNH coach anyway. Saban only wins against bad HUNH teams. "

I agree with this. MSU and OM are for real.
