Arky fans are becoming more delusional than gumps by the minute
Let me ask y'all something. We're notorious around this site for being so delusional... but in all fairness, in retrospect.. have we really been delusional?
We believed that with Saban's arrival that we'd be a championship caliber team. Are we not?
We never expected last year to happen as great as it did. Did it not?
We never expected to have back to back #1 recruiting classes. It happened.
What charges do you opposing fans have that our "delusions" are clearly unwarranted?¿
Likewise, is there REALLY not a more delusional fanbase here? Are we really sure that it's not because Bama happens to be everyone that posts on this website's #1 enemy? Just some food for thought. I have never really understood why we've been called the most delusional. Everything hope we've had for our team seems to be coming true thus far.

I think it has something to do with 98% of your fan base thinking y'all are the end-all be-all of college football. But that's just me.

The football world doesn't revolve around Bama football. That's where my use of delusional comes from. The FACT that Bama fans think it's their given right to be good, which it isn't BTW

Every group of fans is equally delusional and then they point fingers and call each other delusional.
The only group that doesn't seem delustion is MSU. They suck and fully embrace it.

The gumps have been pretty delusional in the past.
I'll give a specific example...in 2005 when Bama was undefeated for like 9 games...all I heard was how they'd get left out of the championship game (like AU in 2004)...were bitching about being underranked. I mean...it was before they even played LSU. They were not a championship team and felt like they should have already been given the crystal trophy. That is a delusion...a delusion of granduer.
As soon as Saban was hired, smack talk ensued as if they had already achieved something.
I will happily admit that there are not too many delusional gumps on this board. Much of the recent smack talk has been earned. <cough> Utah <cough>

You also believed that you would defeat florida in the SEC championship. LINK
You also proclaimed when Saban got hired that he wouldn't lose to teams you should beat (cough) Utah, ULM (Cough)

Yes. A good portion of the bama faithful live in the past. Most posters here are pretty good about it, but, in general, bama fans are more likely to brag about past achievements than other fanbases. These bama fans act like the history of their team somehow entitles the current team.
