Diggs made some outstanding plays in coverage vs some elite WR's. I was extremely impressed with him tonight.
Quinnen Williams is a monster. He's come out of nowhere to become the most disruptive DL on the team.
The OL played their best game, and seem to be heading in the right direction.
Keep these Bama kickers away from Tuas left hand. I dont want those dudes near it.
Tua is the best QB I've personally ever witnessed to play at Bama. With him the offense can almost name the number. Its remarkable.

Errrbody eating some yum-yum sauce!!! Just keep getting better and don’t get complacent.

I agree that Tua shouldn’t be holding, he already broke his hand once.

Najee needs to take a cue from Robinson and turn it up the field.
Hurts is giving up yards to avoid contact. Would rather see more of Mac and let him get in a rhythm before garbage time when the opposing D will tee off on the run.
Overall, a really fun game to watch. Would love to see the first team O get a chance to play a full game, full throttle, regardless of the score just to see what they could do, but I realize that’s not smart.

So did S. Smith get replaced

Serious question should Tua play at all vs Arkansas?

Nah PFF loved him last season. It was just a matter of getting reps. Lot of guys were worried about him at the Nose but he's 6'3 305 and has a first step from hell. Absolute stud and is only going to get better.

All I can say is “DAMN”. Never thought I’d see a BAMA O dominate this way.

Said it last week: best group of WRs I’ve ever seen at Alabama. Jeudy, Ruggs, D Smith and Irv Smith all making plays and we are spreading the ball around. And lord add Waddle out there and I’ve got an erection that lasts over 4 hours.

OL was mauling early. Ever big play you could a OL destroying someone. Haha

I am on the Thompson train. Jesus this kid is good. Speaking of good, since coach never plays kids because of seniority ole Hootie Jones must have been a terror back there last year to keep Thompson on the bench. I guess I just missed all his big plays while in the concession line to get nacho s for my little girl. But Thompson is a freaking beast man. Next level.

Looked to me like they put Surtain where Smith was, moved Smith to Diggs' spot, and put Diggs in the slot.

I feel dirty expecting us to convert 3rd and long now.
Our tight ends are being used properly and teams can't overlook them.
Saban smiled during a halftime interview, After Holly Rowe asked the second question. He tried to stay in "Saban the Savage" mode but couldn't. He knows he has a Death Star on Offense.

-Tua is good. Water is wet. I think he may have played out the first half had he not been cramping. Didn't matter, though. Jalen played well enough.
-So impressed with the defense overall. I never in a million years thought we were going to hold that team to 7 points, especially with the way the game started. Reminded me of the Florida game in 2011.
-Christian Miller finally showed up. That was great to see. Jennings still seems a tad slowed.
-Looks like for the time being Mosley is ahead of Anoma as that third OLB in the rotation. We'll see how long that lasts.
-Surtain is very impressive. They got behind him a couple of times but it wasn't by too much. So a very good throw was still needed to beat him. Diggs played really well yesterday and I have no problem calling him our best corner at this point (but PS2 is charging).
-Seems like Waddle right now is the backup to Jeudy? That might need to change. Dude is so explosive and has great hands. Hopefully we find more ways to get him the ball.
-I'm interested to see what comes from this two-tailback look we showed a few times last night. I think there's a lot more there than we saw last night, but we ended up not really needing to show it. It's a good way to get some of our best players on the field.
-Irv Smith is one hell of a tight end. That catch in the end zone was a thing of beauty. He's really a great weapon out of that position. I'm not technically inclined enough to know how good he is as a blocker, but he is really good as a receiver.

He played one more play last night than I did.

Until #65 replaced #66. If he is the best Nick and staff have as the backup then we're in trouble when we play someone that is somebody.
#8 is the best RB we have as of today with #34 2nd. Nick needs to jerk a knot in #22 and explain to him to hit the hole and stop his dancing. The guy wants to score on every attempt. I would love to see #24 gets some snaps with the 1st OL instead on the 2nd group that isn't very good.
