Saban may commit murder at BDS.

Decades? Alabama won a SEC title 8 years before he was hired in 2007.

You're good at picking random numbers and years to make pointless points. If LSU wins twenty in a row they'll be close to tying up the series.

People forget how much hatred Bama -Tennessee had towards eachother.

Those old block parties in Tuscaloosa before the TSIO
was like freaking thunderdome.

They make the UA-LSU rivalry look like child's play.

Good luck on rebuilding Rocky Top.

Haven't you heard? Kiffin will be the coach in waiting. Saban is another one or tow and done. He wants to give the Bama fans a going away present.

Really?

12 years after Bryant died...national title. Hell Bama and Florida dominated the SEC in the 90's. We weren't sure LSU was still even playing in those years.

I mean seriously...you are aware the 80's is the only decade Bama hasn't won a national title in since the 50's right?

You act like you're proud Alabama only won 1 national title in the first 29 years after the Bear.

Did you care to look how long Texas, USC, Ohio State, and Michigan went between titles? What about LSU?

I've seen my team win 10 national titles in my lifetime son.

How bout you? Some of us ain't kids who haven't been around long enough to know there's ups and downs.

We've just had more ups than anyone else.

Yeah, it's super embarassing Alabama doesn't win the national title every year. We've only managed over a dozen, how pathetic.

How many does LSU have again?

LSU wandered longer and farther than Alabama ever did.

Alabama: 3 National Titles in last 5 years.
LSU: 3 National Titles, ever.

Would hiring Kiffin be the beginning of the end for Alabama?
quote:
The 2009 Vols gained over 1700 more yards than 2008. Montario Hardesty gained over 1300 yards. Kiffin actually turned Jonathan Crompton into a pretty decent quarterback.

Solid effort on your part, though.


One year does not a resume make, every other time as a HC he as underachieved. He couldn't win with a so called Heisman QB and two all pro wideouts at SC. Like I said drink the Kiffen kool-aid if you want, fans are idiots but Saban should know better.


I'm sorry...but I wasn't aware that Kiffin was interviewing for the head coaching job. Why should we give a shite how many games he won as a head coach? Kindly explain what total defense rankings of 84th, 54th, and 60th in 2010, 2011, and 2012...a major factor in those losses...have to do with Kiffin's ability to coach the offense.

If you actually bothered looking at that resume, you would see that USC had a damn good offense, especially in 2011, when they outscored Alabama. Barkley's TD/INT ratio was 39/7.

If you'd like to try again, you might limit your discussion to the offensive side of the ball. The rest of us understand that's all that matters.

One giant troll. This thread.

I am not thrilled with the prospect of Kiffin being hired, but if you think Saban would hesitate to fire his arse if he steps outta line, you're stupid.

After reading the bump responses over the last four pages, there should be no confusion over why other fan bases, particularly LSU, hates the frickingumps. I trust Saban to make the right hires, but this one kinda makes you wonder. I can't see any circumstance where I would want kitten at LSU. Good luck

Y'all are acting like Lane Kiffin is just going to take the frick over
at Bama. Get for real.
If he gets the job, you won't hear shite out of him.

Saban runs UA like Stalin ran USSR.

One voice.

Bama's former OC probably spoke 3 times to the media. That was mandatory press conferences.

Kiffin will do his job or get processed like all the other dead weight Saban cuts yearly.

Anyway, Alabama is a great football program but for you gumps trying to justify Kiffin being hired is full-on retarded and you never go full-on retarded. Man is just bad news.
