I just remember him and Cowherd saying that, “Alabama has a Nick Saban problem.”

A take he’s roasted himself for over and over again now, and even warned Skip Bayless on Undisputed not to make the same mistake he did

damn near unanimous support for the Tide

All of that support will turn on a dime if UTx makes a game of it or somehow manages to win just like the LSU-FSU game.

I really really like the Gus Johnson/Joel Klatt announce team

I'll say it.

I really hate this team. Gus is the most annoying announcer out there. Even worse than Beth Mowins (but I really don't mind her).
Klatt may suffice for analysis, but he's an anti SEC guy and I'm afraid he won't remain impartial.

We need a burner to open things up for our WRs.

Tyler Harrell is supposed to be that guy

I think Bond and Prentice are both big time burners. We haven't really taken many shots down field.

BOB out there running a bunch of slow crossing routes.

Bond dropped a fairly deep one. Hit him right in the hands.

Last Minute Field Goal Lifts No. 1/1 Alabama Football to a 20-19 Victory Over Texas

The No. 1/1 Alabama football team pulled out a 20-19 win over Texas Saturday at Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium in Austin, Texas, on the strength of a 33-yard field goal by kicker Will Reichard with 10 seconds left on the game clock. With the win, the Crimson Tide goes to 2-0 on the season while the Longhorns drop to 1-1.

Reichard's effort as time wound down marked the first game-winning field goal in the last 30-seconds of a game for Alabama during the Nick Saban era - and first such win since the 2006 campaign. Reichard opened the scoring in the first quarter with a 52-yard field goal, which matched his career long.

After trading scores in the first half, resulting in a 10-10 tie going into the break, Texas hit three field goals in the second half, while the Tide responded with a touchdown and Reichard's game winner, both in the fourth quarter.

Running back Jase McClellan led all rushers with 97 yards on six carries, including an electrifying 81-yard touchdown in the first quarter. Running back Jahmyr Gibbs led the Tide with 74 receiving yards on nine catches, including a seven-yard touchdown catch from quarterback Bryce Young in the middle of the fourth quarter. Young went 27-of-39 for 213 yards and a touchdown while adding 38 rushing yards on seven carries.

Defensive back DeMarco Hellams led the Tide defense with 10 tackles, including eight solo stops, while linebacker Jaylen Moody, defensive back Kool-Aid McKinstry and linebacker Will Anderson Jr. all recorded sacks on the day.
