I'm coming clean fellas, I'm a spoiled rotten Bama fan used to domination and I've been overly critical when we aren't playing absolutely perfect. I watched Milroe's post game interview tonight and saw a young man who is learning and keeping optimism and working hard and I gotta admit it made me feel like a piece of shite. We may not be crushing fools, but we are winning games and I'm thankful for it. So, instead of being a little bitch yelling at every mistake I'm gonna try and have a little more optimism. Roll tide and smoke em' if you got em'.

I’d like to kneel at the same altar. When Tennessee scored just before the half I thought it was over. This team is having fun and are growing by leaps and bounds. Maybe I’m just not as patient as I was in 2015, but today’s showing was proof enough that I should try to be.

It’s all good to rant and rave if you’re in the privacy of your own home. That’s just how it is.

The key is to stay away from the threads and social media during games if you get easily frustrated. You’re only going to post things you’ll regret…no matter the outcome,

Milroe may not be the greatest qb ever but he is an outstanding young man.

Best post of the night. I think most of us are guilty of the same thing.

In no way am I a sunshine pumper. Lot of stuff I've not liked this season. I'm quick to blame the OL and Wolford for our problems. I do like that the team does not give up though. We have been spoiled, especially with QBs recently.

How I have approached the season is to just sit back and allow myself to be pleasantly surprised AND enjoy the time that we as fans have left with the GOAT. Not saying he is done yet but this season has really hit me that at some point he will retire and that is going to be a sad day.

I’ll leave it at this. Ppl can get on here and post their opinions and that’s perfectly fine as long as it’s not to far out of bounds aka not a person spouse or family which has happened on here.

But some of these ppl should be absolutely ashamed of themselves how they’ve trashed Milroe and this team. It’s fricking pathetic how some these fair weather so called fans act, it’s embarrassing how some have no shame at all.

These same ppl talk about Burton making an arse of himself talking trash. It’s nowhere close as the trash that gets talked on here about some of these players on this team. It’s fricking despicable and low class how some ppl act on here when this team struggles, but then hedge their bullshite post when Bama pulls out the win. What a fricking joke

Hard to watch this team at times. Twice they have rebounded after a bad first half against pretty decent teams. Winning this game would have been a dog fight without questionable calls going our way. We probably would have won any way, but a couple of though placements were strange. I have no idea about the last holding call giving us a first down on a busted third down play. Our lack of penalties was a pleasant surprise. I hope they have improved that much.

Saban did create those winning standards. And they arent playing to the standards he created so I get the frustration. But im enjoying winning. We won’t get saban for too much longer

The refs were very lenient on hand fighting during the game. They weren't as picky as they normally are, but on the play you're talking about, the DB tugged the jersey where the ref could see it. That's almost always drawing a flag, whether it affects the outcome of the play or not.

They missed several calls on Tenn that could’ve given us the game earlier

We’re just not crying about it because you rarely see the winner of a game talk about bad officiating

Considering how God awful those refs were last year in Knoxville, cry me a river if a few calls went our way. Those horrendous calls last year were a gigantic reason why Bama lost. So pardon me if I don't shed any tears for Tennessee this year.

Right on brother vuvuzela !! I can't remember a team that has me screaming, cussing ,and bitching and then being proud of the team that keeps on fighting and never gives up. Of course I'd rather kick everyones arse for the entire 60 minutes but that aint what we have this year so I'm riding with the team regardless and ROLL DAMN TIDE !!!
