re: Response/Followup Thread : 2011 LSU vs Alabama
Posted by Gumpalicious on 2/4/16 at 9:50 am
OF only those players, Alabama had a player drafted at almost every position: QB, RB, TE, WR, OT, OG, C, DT, DE, OLB, ILB, S, CB. No fullback. That's pretty amazing.
That's one of my favorite years, but I still hate that Alabama won it at the cost of LSU. ...

[quote]Legit Titles[/quote]
This probably belongs in the other thread, but I have to ask about your assertion re: legit titles. Are the others you excluded not legit due to losses in bowl games?
Do you apply the same logic to the Heisman? By your count, how many Heismans are legit?...
re: Former 5 star Alabama WR Chris Black to transfer
Posted by Gumpalicious on 12/8/15 at 8:34 pm
I've always been a big fan, and will pull for him wherever he chooses to go (even Auburn).
I can't remember what year, or even if it was a single year, but he and Blake Sims had seemed to have developed a rapport. Sims would come in for mop-up and Black would be his go-to option. So much so that...

This was my first ever experience with shitty fans, and it wasn't event at the game. A couple hours after the game, I was with my dad running some errands in Irondale(Birmnigham), walking from our car to a a store in a mall. Some guys in a lifted truck drove by, saw me in my Alabama sweatshirt, curs...

Exactly what I was going to say.
I just hope this slump doesn't last the whole year. Fortunately though, we have much more talent at receiver to take up the slack than we did in 09....

You must remember things differently than I. Mallet almost beat us (2nd play in 2010 was a long swing pass for a TD where Lester missed the tackle). Aaron Murray really did have an oustanding SECCG. And Stafford was i...

[quote]I dont think alabama is gonna be willing to do that. Seems they always have 2 and the rest are simply used for mop up duty. [/quote]
2012 ended up being a two-back offense, but that was mostly due to injury. Fowler and Hart both had ACL's early in the year. Prior to their injuries, each ha...

[quote]Not a knock against Bama, but why would 4 talented backs who might start at other schools go to Bama and sit the bench? I can see taking 1-2 backs a year, but 4 in one year, plus guys on the roster? Just seems like a waste of talent to me[/quote]
I'm an Alabama fan, and I ask myself the sa...

I don't know why Alabama fans are getting so pissy about this thread. This was a huge win for Kentucky.
I remember working over the weekend, listening to this game on the radio. I had every belief that Alabama would pull it out, but it just didn't happen.
Didn't Kentucky block a FG attempt an...
re: Anybody else watching the 2010 Bama @ SC replay on Sport South?
Posted by Gumpalicious on 1/23/13 at 7:44 am
I haven't rewatched this game since the original broadcast. I was disgusted with the offensive line's performance in that game. Sure, the defense couldn't stop SC, but the offense didn't pull its own weight.
Great game by SC. I really didn't mind losing that game. Alabama had a long winning stre...

Great post. I'm six years younger than you, so I don't remember a thing of the Bryant years. I don't even remember his death. So my "fandom" has always been framed against Bryan't shadow, and to me the Stallings era my was own mini-Bryant....
Non-Alabama fans: would you have believed it 6 years ago?
Posted by Gumpalicious on 1/7/13 at 1:42 pm
Serious question - six years ago, would anyone have believed that Alabama would have done the following:
* Losses to UL Monroe, and Utah (got those out of the way first)
* 3 sec CG appearances
* 2 sec titles
* 2 (maybe 3) BCS titles
* 3 BCS CG appearances
* Since 2008, a record of 60 and 7

re: What Bama players played in all 3 BCS title games

Mosley was a true freshman in 10, so he missed the 09 game. Nico was on the 09 team, as a TF. Square was on the team, but didn't play due to a torn ACL he suffered earlier in the year.
Barrett Jones played right guard, and Michael Williams played as well. In fact, Williams was unprepared for the ...
re: Better RB Gurley or Yeldon
Posted by Gumpalicious on 11/24/12 at 11:35 pm
I love Yeldon. Absolutely love him. But Gurley reminds me of Trent. I'll take Yeldon simply because he plays for Alabama, but if it were the other way around, I'd take Gurley. The guy is a stud.
And the same goes for Hill. Great backs, all three....
