You know what the dumbest part of this whole thing is?
Coming into this game, the narrative was that Saban was done and ready to be put out to pasture. Kirby was going to take the reigns of college football from Saban. And it all hinged on this one game, that most of the experts predicted Georgia to win.
Pause.
Think about this, re-read that paragraph again. It's worth reading twice.
That was the mentality, that was the zeitgeist across the college football landscape nationally, from fans and experts alike, less than 7 days ago.
What a crock of shite that was right?
Now, instead of people simply getting reality-checked, level-set, or taking a more reasonable closer look at things, they (pundits and experts included) are doing the exact same thing they did before, but in the completely opposite direction.
"Kirby Smart and QB's blah blah"
"Kirby handcuffing the offense blah blah"
"Kirby stuck in 2005 blah blah"
"Kirby can't coach and make adjustments blah blah"
Spewing bullshite... but "this time, we're right, this time, we know."

Honestly, I don't think people would be losing their minds as much if this played out even like 2020s mathcup. In other words, we fought hard, looked good for a half, but simply gave out of steam against a better team. I think people could live with that.
What is just mind boggling to accept is that our coaches watched 12 games of film on our own defense, one fo the best historically in CFB hitsory, also watched 12 games of bama's offense and watched how 4 teams either did beat them or came a whisker away from it by all doing the same thing.....then come into the SECCG and do LITERALLY THE EXACT OPPOSITE.
-Man seems to work, both for us and in stopping them. LETS GO ZONE
-Bringing a ton of pressure and blitzes rattles them and makes them super ineffective. LETS RUSH 3
-Well we have a great DL, let's just raise hell with those guys without pressure. FRICK THAT, LET EM SIT BACK AND CONTAIN
-But bryce isn't really a runner and would prefer not to leav DID YOU HEAR WHAT I SAID? CONTAIN
Like you could throw darts at a wall of differnet things to do as a defense and would probably come up with a grab bag of a better game plan than what we did. Then lo and behold the second half we scapped that abortion and did what we should've done from the start and whaddayaknow? We slowed them down considerably. That's why I at least am so irritated, I don't even really GAF about the QB thing since I accpeted since October that that's what we're doing. But the defense is just inedescribable.

The crazy bit is that Saban was considered "done" because he'd gone 11-1 with a couple of close games. For any other coach out there - that's a season that gets them a raise and an extension.
