If Ags get them next weekend, they are going to be riding this same self doubt train.

I have never liked Kelly, but he is 2 years ahead of Kalen into fixing the mess in Baton Rouge. I am afraid he's building a solid program.

We'll see

The playoff will become about what team gets hot, and not about what team is better. This happens in professional sports almost every year.
If BAMA wins out they'd be HOT.

The problem is Milroe is Zero degrees Kelvin.

I only go with this , if Alabama wins out in the manner it has won against SC and even Georgia. (Total of 9 points). It would be a FSU type scenario last year of just winning games by a small margin, knowing full well a playoff berth is not deserved.

Now, if Bama can right the ship (LOL) and beat everyone SOUNDLY that remains on the schedule, perhaps an argument can be made.
Otherwise, I don't need to witness another goal post tearing down at a place like Bloomington, Indiana.

Winning out and winning the national championship as the #11 seed.

Book it.

I totally get the realistic sense of doom. However, I am surprised by all the pundits who have thrown in the towel already. I know a bunch of you (probably the vast majority of you) played sports and maybe are even still playing. I for one didn't care if the guy or team I was against won the last three 5 on 5 games.... we are winning the next one. Hope springs eternal or denial springs eternal... choose one. I am never giving up on this team and even if you share you are not either, my God I would not want these dooms day activist on my team or in my locker room. Roll Tide, best with the changes your having to consider, and get back to winning one game at a time.

Unless we send 5-6 every down, it’s a good possibility.

That's the spirit.

We can do it, just need to make some changes. At least we get a bye week before away at LSU.

We win out and sort out QB, OL and get better 3rd/4th down defensive play calls we're in the playoffs and we got momentum

Most fans with realistic expectations saw a 10-2 team this season and making the playoffs. So yes still can happen.

The question is will out headcoach do what needs to be done at offense


Doubt he will Bench Milore so I guess no to that part of the question.

with the defense to get us those wins and make us a playoff worthy team


Still a possibility even with Milroe but no mistakes here on out.

This team, as it stands the last few weeks, is not beating LSU at night in their house. Look at the we showed up in Knoxville....

But I wasn't expecting a loss to Vandy with a favorable crowd, a near miss to SC at home, and a collapse of offense to TN.

Wtf? If they make it they deserve it. Just like anyone else who makes it.

Now it seems unlikely they make it since they would have to win out, but it is very strange to say you don’t want your team to have success and make the playoff and to say they don’t deserve it if they do make it.
