What in the hell could they do when the offense is going 3 and out more than scoring?
Apparently you can't read either. I was just as hard on Milroe and the offense.

Well I figured we was going to give up yardage to Sark. He's too skilled as a play caller
He had a very good gameplan on both sides of the ball and was very patient.

You clearly think this group of players is better than they actually are.

So, Jalen Milroe……..we ridin this mule or what? Is there one flicking reason to stay with this quarterback? You can read a defense when you’re 21 yrs old….or you fricking can’t.

The offense had every opportunity to win the game buy Milroe failed. That's not Rees fault. The defense got no support from the offense. We held Texas to 13 points well into the 3rd quarter. Defense played well.
Defense played ok. I'm not too concerned about them. Having flashbacks of the Clemson game where the D couldn't get a stop on the final play to win the game and everyone said they lost the game. Not many remember they played 99 plays that game and was the reason we were even still in it. I will say we should have blitz more. Every time we blitzed Ewers faltered. No 20+ yard passes and he balls out against us. But we tackled better and hit harder. I feel like the 4th got away from us and players didn't respond how they should. But with the offense going 3 and out I see why frustration could set in. Our offense allowed Sark to tee off on our defense.

This is not a bad group.
There should have been a plan for two quarterbacks to play if Milroe struggled. Keeping Milroe out there with no change up did not put this team in a position to win.
The calls schemed guys open. Chances were there.
The defense is far ahead of where they were under Golding. They just eventually got worn down and played sloppy in the 4th.
Defensive line is still a weakness. No pressure without bringing two extra. Recipe for giving up big plays.

Yes, it absolutely is a bad group, by Alabama standards. Two quarterbacks? None of them are SEC championship material. The OL is not good at all by Alabama standards. Seriously...do you think our center deserves to be mentioned in the same sentence as Jones, Kelly, Bozeman, Caldwell, or hell, even Vlachos? What OL do you see as being a first round draft choice?
RB...I've already mentioned the talent we've had in the past...even Glen Coffee. None of these guys are remotely that good.
At WR we've been spoiled with multiple first round draft picks over the last several years. You can name at least 8 that would keep any of this year's crew from ever seeing the field.
The coaching certainly can improve, but the talent on this team is woefully less than what we've been accustomed to over the last 15 years, and even with great coaching, their ceiling is going to be at a level below the standard we are used to.
They may be great young men. They are not great football players.

Wide receivers looked a lot better last night than they did in 2022. Are you forgetting the constant drops last season and going back to the title game against Georgia? Last night they made a bunch of leaping grabs, adjusted to overthrows, underthrows, passes behind them, etc. That's a position group that looked to have taken a massive leap. Defense was much more fundamentally sound. Offensive line was bad, as they were last year, but it looked worse than it was due to Milroe's mistakes in the pocket and Texas being able to put seven or eight guys near the line of scrimmage. Even the snap issues are often with the quarterback - McLaughlin had these same issues when Milroe was in last year but did much better with Young. McClellan looked very good until, again, he couldn't compete with the stacked box. There was notable improvement from last season at many positions, but Milroe obscured it all.
