First time in a long time I feel like watching Bama is going to feel more like my job then having fun. Just looking for improvement weekly but not expecting to win games.


Don't these guys know I'm obligated to watch? Help me out here, fellas

I know it won’t happen but instead of finishing 8-4 or 7-5 with Simpson I’d like for the coaches to just start Russell and see what we have. Maybe it’ll save his job if there is a future

True. We had 43 pass att to FSU’s 14.


He missed on 20 passes. 20.

How many of those passes were late balls? Bad reads? Poor balls?

He missed two open TDs because he took forever to process and throw.

He blew a 4th down because he Milroe'd and instead of the easy run he flipped the ball into the dirt.

We really need to put Mack or Keelon in and give them time because Ty isn't winning us a game or keeping us in a game.

I'm not blaming Simpson, for what it's worth. He did show 'something' at least, which is more than basically the entire team can say. It wasn't great though. The no-turnovers is actually huge though.

This was the Oklahoma game without Milroe. Simpson is marginally better, but he isn't good enough to win the games we lost last year

Why does the old '50s song "The Great Pretender" keep playing in my head. Oh yeah, that's what I team is, Pretender rather than Contender.

People blame Wommack for not stopping the run when he's calling the right plays lol

LAWSON & JEFFERSON WERE ARSE!

Not filling gaps IMMEDIATELY when they open are the problem...that's why they kept gashing us and that's how ROYDELL was able to get the first down because LAWSON didn't react or fill the gap.

Bernard got hurt, Williams knocked wobbly, Latham got hurt.

Bray Hubbard did not have a good game

I don’t disagree on his bad throws. I just think we threw too much for his first start and with a porous OL.

If Ty makes those reads and throws Grubb looks like a genius because we would have won.

We called some great plays but the QB can't make the throw or the OL doesn't block or Ryan Williams kills us

Lol.

There's no quarterback on Alabama ROSTER that will WIN the game when you have receivers dropping EASY PASSES.

RYAN WILLIAMS played scared after he got hit on the screen pass which was WIDE OPEN that HE dropped.

Ty Simpson miss some for sure but RYAN GRUBB and his RECEIVERS (NOT GERMIE) was CHEEKS!

Idk if it's the knee or what, but Lawson was also a MASSIVE liability in pursuit. Looked slow and angles were poor.

It’s not a coincidence. This is same thing as last year. Zero improvement. Fire all of these coaches.


Opponents always seem better prepared than we are.

Outside of Riley and Bernard, I can’t think of a player that had a good game

He limped off late 4th. I never saw him back in. But I could have missed it

Yeah people downvoted the s**t out of me like I give a frick, but there are people in Tuscaloosa with long memories about Kiffin.

Plus the guy is going to die at an old age while still emotionally a teenager. All fans know is he calls wild hair funky plays that are fun to watch. He’s not the kind of person the powers that be at Alabama want as coach.
