Saban used to always be dialed in to the game on the sideline. He was Always jumping screaming throwing something chewing someone etc. In the last 2-3 years if you have noticed he just stands there and looks lost at times. Our body doesn’t last forever and obviously he is past his peak.

He also has proved he’s the best all time and got more money than he will ever know what to do with. He’s not hungry anymore and no one can blame him. We will always fondly remember him and all these good years for the rest of our lives. We need to try to enjoy the twilight of his career because whenever he decides to quit we will really miss him and all the things he brought us.

The game is changing rapidly and change is hard for everyone but especially the older we get. I think he still got 1 more in the tank and more if he can surround himself with the right people. Either way it’s been an epic journey with coach and one no one may ever experience again. Thanks coach

I agree with you and some of the other statements in this thread. The 2020 season was a blessing in the middle of 5 rough seasons (2018 - 2022). On defense, Tennessee's Jalin Hyatt didn't receive proper adjustments to defend him. On offense, Tennessee linebacker Jeremy Banks (#33) did a great job tackling and applying pressure.

Bama's OL wasn't able to assert its will, and it's been rare that Alabama's defense has played to the familiar, elite standard that lasted through the 2017 season.

As for the 52 points, I don't get hung on that. Both teams missed manageable opportunities to extend drives or score points, so Tennessee could have scored more. Also, Clemson scored 44 in 3 quarters (including a pick six) against the 2018 team. 2018 Clemson or 2019 LSU could have both scored more than they did to win.

I have enjoyed the run and side with people that are not optimistic that true responsibility and accountability for the shakiness since 2019 and particularly since last season will be realized by changing some philosophies and staffing.
