Saban's hot because there is a lot of shite that needs to be worked on and he's pissed....Taylor just keeps asking the same stupid arse question over and over that Nick has heard asked a million times......bad time for Taylor to ask another dumb question.

Agree I miss both Tiffins, Van & Lee the last good kickers we ever had.



Not true at all. Van was a career 67% kicker. He just happened to make one of the biggest kicks in Bama history.

Jermey Shelley was FAR more accurate than both he was just range limited.

The QB situation is obviously decided. Saban likes Hurts and doesn't want his demotion to be a public spectacle. I respect that. So long as Hurts isn't taking snaps with the game on the line for no reason.

Yes he was very good. The notion that the Tiffins are the only good Bama kickers is just pure fantasy.

You’re going to be more accurate when you never or rarely try one past 40 yards.

Saban loves both guys and that’s fine for the regular season, but if we get into the SEC title against UGA or the playoffs against Clemson, Tua better take 100% snaps or I’ll be dumbfounded

My wife would just laugh at me.

I observed - in my expert opinion - that Waddle was probably a good evaluation by the staff.

D. Thompson showed out. So glad QW was okay. So glad Mack is okay.

I thought Tevita looked better than expected too (I feared that was a wasted scholly but doesn’t appear to be the case).

Nick Saban said Mack Wilson could have gone back in if necessary.

Said the team had no significant injuries.

It's a bad standard to set. This isn't little league where you get to play because you are on the team. Let your starting QB feel like he will get to play until the game is almost over. It's a rhythm position. I have no idea why he is so stuck on pretending we have a 2 QB system. It just creates drama.

I don't think Saban is being political with the QB situation. I think he really doesn't want to be down to two QBs.

The only reason why it feels political to me is if we had a system like Florida did with Tebow in his freshman year it could work. Have a few plays for Jalen in niche situations. Instead we have this co-starter crap. The 2nd quarter felt pointless. He has had 2 years to have in game reps. Let Tua feast.
