Just wanted to say Congratulations

I requested access for this board to say congratulations to y'all, so I want to make due on my promise.

First of all, and arguably most importantly, I want to let you know how impressed I was by your fan base on Monday night. Almost everyone who I talked to after the game leaving the stadium was incredibly gracious after the game on Monday night. I think it was in large part due to having the same feeling we had, the previous year against Clemson (although I'll take the 4 out of 7 before that ) but in the midst of victory, your fans were much classier than I would have expected.

Next, I know it doesn't take away from your victory in the slightest, but definitely don't worry about those UGA (or LSU) fans who are complaining about the refs and saying it diminishes your National Championship. There's a difference between having an impact on the game, and winning or losing the game, and your coaching staff and players deserve the credit for that, especially in the wake of the injuries the Tide experienced leading up to the game.

At halftime, the only thing I was worried about at the beginning of the second half was Bama going to Tua. That was an incredibly ballsy move by Saban to go to the true freshman QB after Hurts had got you to that point, but Jalen was the type of player we succeeded in defending all year long. I would think that Saban knew that, and then made the change. Even more impressive, he stayed with him after the 1st drive (think it was 3 and out) when many coaches would have gone back to the original starter. It's incredibly frightening thinking about Saban with an elite QB going forward, but it appears as if Tua very well could be that level of player. I would go on about the defense as well, but I think y'all know that will continue to be elite with the DL and LBs still in Tuscaloosa.

One day, I hope to know that feeling you experienced on Monday night (and 5 out of the last 9 years) but for now, I wanted congratulate y'all on an incredible season and a job very well done
