While true, we got them early, and NO ONE was prepared for that Vandy.
Georgia State (2-6) seemed to be pretty well prepared.
Vandy hasn’t exceeded 300 yards of offense in 4 of the 5 SEC games they’ve played thus far. They put 418 on Bama.
They got less than 350 against Alcorn State in week 2.
They put 418 on Bama.
They got 232 against Auburn yesterday.
They put 418 on Bama.
Bama is a quick score offense. The defense was basically on the field the entire game in Nashville. Yeah the D had a bad game and a healthy Pavia(who wasnt healthy at all against Auburn) threw a perfect game.
5 other of those "prepared" teams also lost to Vandy. They have a generational QB, shite happens.

but that amazing Saban consistency isn’t walking through the door either.
Right, that Saban consistency hasnt been around for years and years. Not one player from a staple Saban team is on the roster. Bama needed a hail mary to beat a losing record, trash Auburn team last season. Bama got the dogshit beat out of them in Bryant-Denny last season. Saban magic and an infinitely more easy schedule got them to SEC championship last season.
Before that, Bama was basically an air raid team relying on Bryce Young to win every game. If he had a bad game, Bama lost or came dangerously close. I think half of the fanbase has forgotten all this.
Yes, a new coach gets a pass for some mishaps. Every new coach deals with it and to assume that it wont happen is just foolishness.

Do you really want the answer? It’s only going to derail the thread.

Where is he wrong? Our performance against Vandy was inexcusable. Our reliance on a poor QB to continually play hero ball as the basis for our offense is, also. This team has been mismanaged all year

Who Pavia? Dude will be an UDFA at best.

When yall post do you want everyone to agree with you? This is a forum where people come together to discuss football.
If you want everyone to agree threads would be boring and look like this...
Vanilla ice cream is the best
I agree

Just because people have a different opinion doesn't mean their wrong or shouldn't express themselves.

He's a tough SOB and good QB but that term is thrown around way too much. Newton and Lamar Jackson were generational talents that played on teams with little NFL talent. Pavia is not on their level or close to it

For Vandy, hes absolutely generational. Hes an option QB. Of course hes not gonna be a pro prospect. That actually makes him even harder to defend.
One problem is that portions of Bama's fanbase got their fragile egos bruised so hard over that game that they feel like the coach must somehow be punished for it. They downplay how good Vandy is because we cant have that loss being minimized for the hurt it caused them personally

If its inexcusable, go cheer for another team. Good luck finding one without an "inexcusable" performance this year.

I never said any of this. I think Vandy is a good team. If anything there's plenty of non-Bama fans acting like Vandy is a 3-9 caliber team

That's not how it works. He's a good QB in the right system.
I just feel like the term "generational talent" is thrown around every year for so many players to the point the term is watered down. Generational talents are freaks of nature that you rarely will ever see. There is something between average and generational talent and that's where he is at.

Too many of our fans are prisoners of the moment. Was the Vandy loss bad? Absolutely. Did we look unprepared and undisciplined? Oh my, yes. But this is a transition year. People expecting DeBoer to simply pick up where Saban left off without missing a beat are delusional. To say that anything that happens this season is "inexcusable" is just spouting off for the sake of showing how angry you are. I'm sure many of these same fans (those that were around back then, anyway) said that the ULM loss was also "inexcusable," but I am guessing they probably got around to excusing Saban for it eventually.

Vandy hasnt beaten both Auburn and Alabama in the same season since 1955. They are ranked in November for first time in who knows how long. Yes that qualifies as generational.

Pavia is a gamer no doubt but he isn't that great a throwing QB. If he were our QB many would be complaining

This is my beef. If a fan is deadset on something being "inexcusable" than he must withdraw all his money and leave...or hes just spouting off and throwing a fit.
Inexcusable for me is something which cause me to stop watching until the offenders are gone. That for me is some kind of egregious behavior, not losing to a ranked Vandy team.

I mean...he pretty much did. Saban's last team barely scraped by all year and then beat Georgia with a much more talented and experienced team. Bama has been starting and rotating in multiple true freshman on defense all year...and none of them are Caleb Downs(who had the benefit of being surrounded by veterans).

I dont know why I have to keep explaining this. Vandy runs the triple option. One doesnt need to be a great throwing QB to be a great QB in the triple option.
The dude came to Vandy, got them bowl eligible, beat Alabama, took Texas to the brink, has them with a winning SEC record and ranked in November. Ive never seen this in my lifetime. They were dogshit last season. For Vandy, yes generational....for a potential pro, no

Yes that qualifies as generational.
I don’t think you know what that term means for an individual player

Stop rationalizing a bad comment.
Paiva isn't a generational QB. Period.
