This is the shite that makes the Milroe haters look stupid. He didn’t have any more bad passes today than most SEC QBs have every single week but he did have 5-7 great passes today that only about 5 guys in all of college football can complete.



This is not true, and that's not even including the times he didn't throw to wide-open guys

Again…y’all have awful memories. Coker struggled a lot throughout the season. He was clutch and tough but it rarely looked pretty in most games.

Milroe is every bit as good as Jake Coker currently. Honestly I’d say he’s better.

Yep, and if Milroe improves, and we clean up the stupid false starts, and we don’t have any bad injuries on defense, we are gonna be a tough team to beat down the stretch.

We didn't try to run a dumbed-down offense for Coker. Not all stats are equal.

This team has had a lot of issues, and Milroe has definitely been one of them. He played his best half of football today, even with the terrible int. Let's enjoy the win and hope he can build on it (and the oline stops being pussies in the run came, and Reese maybe learned something).

Final stats



Can't imagine a lot of folks thought we could pull off a W when rushing for 54 yards (without sacks). Heck of a game for Milroe

This win is fool's gold. I can't feel good about it.

Analytics had A&M as one of if not the best defense in the nation and a particularly nasty matchup for our run offense and pass protection.

We beat them on the road with Milroe passing against a lot of officiating headwinds.

This is a great win and everyone needs to just enjoy it

Give credit where credit is due. That was a great play call by Rees. Milroe just waited too long to throw it.

Hope we see that again in the future.

ETA: Without the INT of course.

I know it pains you when Milroe plays pretty well and we win, but try to enjoy it...at least just a little bit

Kevin Steele’s halftime adjustments have yielded 3 points against Lane Kiffin and 3 points against Bobby Petrino. Yeah, what a bad hire … :)

I don't think he had fully recovered from getting murdered on the previous sack.

Jalen Milroe won this game in the 2nd half today and deserves a ton of credit.

Agree, but so does the DL. Unbelievable pressure in the 2nd half.

lets circle back to the flag on Dallas Turner, y'all think the NCAA takes a look in the off season and changes that rule. 15 did nothing to warrant a flag on that block FG


I doubt it. I’ve never seen a blindside flag thrown when a guy runs in front of another guy and shoulders him in the chest and doesn’t knock him down. The SEC should absolutely look at it along with quite a few other bad calls and suspend this crew.

People forget these guys are humans with pain and emotion not just a robot. He was probably reeling after that hit. Tommy called a really good game today but calling a pass after a qb gets blindsided is always a bad call imo.

When is the last time an Alabama front 7 dominated a team the way Bama did A&M today?

Turner just destroyed their entire 2nd half game-plan this afternoon.

I said it in another thread during the week but one thing I love about this team is that they never quit.

Not only do they never quit, but they continue to gain confidence. Games like this are a HUGE confidence booster. We continue to grow every weeek and that's all you can really ask for.

Let's keep this momentum going!

But at least the D looked okay without Moore.

Kristian Story ain’t Malachi Moore.

Moore healthy was balling out this year for Alabama.

I’d argue he was playing at an AA level before the injury.

They remind me so much of 2014. People doubt the QB and the offense every week but they are tough as shite and they just gut out wins all the way to a ‘ship. Hopefully they’ll repeat that too!

Been a while. Turner, Braswell, Eboigbe, Keenan, and Oatis stole their lunch money in the second half though.
