It’s possible we don’t suck quite as much as we thought…..

No doubt in my mind who was doing a lot of heavy lifting as far as talent identification on our peak Saban teams.

No one has ever done a better job of talent identification relative to rankings than Cignetti in 2025.

No kidding. They’re playing mean too.

The RB hit the hole hard, the OL don’t quit blocking people till the whistle and they’re quick.

I’m jealous. I miss that

You know teams gonna go after their guys as soon season it over. Indiana is going to take a heavy hit.

Exactly.

Maybe we shouldn't fire our head coach and just make some adjustments.

Imagine if we didn't go for it on 4th down and Tt didn't fumble... we go into halftime with a close game.

Indiana is about to beat Oregon worse in one half then they beat us over a full game

Yet some were begging to fire Kalen and hire Lanning

Maybe. But honestly if they win it all why would they leave?

At least we hadn’t given up 35 in the first half.

If this continues, the Rose Bowl will look like a squeaker

Maybe feeling a bit better tonight, but we still had plenty of awful games that weren't against Indiana

This is what happens when your college football team is only 2 years younger than the Green Bay Packers.

Well, we can now at least see why DeBoer beat Lanning’s arse when they matched up. Lanning is not a big game coach.
