Jalen Milroe is the biggest problem.

If he plays next week... he'll look good versus a nobody once again.

Great post! It's exactly how I've felt the last several years.

I remember walking out of the stadium when Shula lost to state his last year. I knew he was done. Tonight I had that same feeling.

This won’t be the low point of the season.

Shula didn’t lose this badly at home his last two years.

There are zero elite position groups. Zero.

Which is not what we need. I'm not against him playing but he in no way needs to get every meaningful snap. That is the absolute last thing that we need.

He’s not though. He can read a defense. He doesn’t panic in the pocket. Some of these things Milroe won’t ever have.

I wish we had an insider in the locker room. I'm really curious how Saban interacts with the players after a game like this. Saban use to challenge the players. We all know the video where he made the player on the Dolphins cry after he came down on him so hard. I don't know, but I feel like Saban gives these guys an uplighting pep talk and tells them how he's proud they tried their best.

I think we are done. I truly don’t think Saban wins another title

Buchner is not going to be any better. He stunk last year at Notre Dame.

Correct. Season is over before it got going. At least I can be stress free and enjoy my Saturdays

Saban never comes down hard on his players after a loss as long as they compete. He's always been that way.

They enjoyed beating Bama but deep down they know they didn’t beat a Real Alabama team.

Bad news. The real Bama team is never coming back. We aren’t what we used to be. We are an empty shell

True but he had more emotion on the sideline and challenged his guys more. I vividly remember in 08' 09' he and Kirby both being very "vocal" to players during close games. He obviously isn't going to belittle them but he needs to get back to challenging the players and step back from the nurturing spectrum

Saban is around this team more than you. He knows when to back off and he knows when to turn the heat up.

Last time Bama lost by double digits at home? Shula was the coach.

Last time Bama started 1-1? Shula was the coach.

Milroe missed 2 TD’s to our RB’s. One to Roydell when he threw behind him and the wheel route to Jase. Both were walk in TD’s.

Remember how you felt when Davis ran that FG back in 2013? I was at my sister’s a for a watch party and 10 minutes after the game we turned the lights out and everybody went home or to bed. It was sickening. Way worse than this. Our season was basically over.

This hurts and sucks and it’s a different time snd a different game today and Saban is getting old and tired, but I’m going to use the old cliche that we “technically” still have everything to play for. It’s unlikely with this team but we can still win the west and go to Atlanta. I think we have one more run in this dynasty before Saban hangs it up.

This team has massive problems obviously. Let’s see if they can fix them.

Drag me if you want but I’m not going to be a pussfied fair weather fan and quit watching Bama football like a bunch of fake fan pussies I’ve seen tonight because we lost to the No.11 team by 10 points. I lived through the dark years when we hoped to beat Auburn and maybe go to bowl game.

Suck it up, bitches.
