If this was a conference game do you think Saban pulls Milroe?

Think it's milroe unless he gets injured on Longeran is ready, so could be a while

Nope. Honestly I’ll be surprised if he pulls him next week. I think he’s done.

No, it will take multiple losses.

No. I was rooting for Texas in the first half, because one more TD would've been it for Milroe. I truly believe we were one play away from a QB switch for most of the game - it just never panned out.

Reminded me of the 2017 Iron Bowl where Hurts played just well enough to not get benched but not well enough to win

Had that been the case, the second half pick where Milroe hit the Texas guy right in the numbers and there wasn't a Bama receiver within five yards would've been it. Saban said it was never even considered.

If we are to believe Saban, going to another QB was never even a thought in this game.

Milroe could have thrown another INT or a pick 6, and Saban was trotting his arse right back onto the field.

That’s malfeasance.

It just shows you how far he's fallen living up to his own standard that he created.

People keep saying this when Saban literally said the exact opposite thing in the postgame presser.

He said he DID consider pulling Milroe but after Jalen went on the drive to put us ahead in the game, he thought that would give him the confidence he needed.
