We put huge offensive numbers on them and a lot of points for an NFL shut down defense who put a bunch in the pros and the only reason they stopped us at the end of the game was due to our own mistake...
I realize that UGAs defense is not as dominant as all of us would like to be, but I also think many of you lack perspective and your logic chains make no sense...

We put up 281 passing yards (good) and 113 rushing yards (again, good) against them. We pushed them harder than everyone but Texas A&M, who only scored one more point than we did against them.
We averaged 182.6 rushing yards per game last season, but only got 113. I'm not complaining about the 113 against Bama, but their defense kept us well below our average rushing yards, including 1 yard less per attempt.
We averaged 285.1 yards a game passing, and passed for 281 yards against Bama. That is very respectable to just about meet our average against them, but that was the highlight of our offensive production. We still only scored 3 offensive TDs and were kept to 10 points lower than our average for the year.
I'm not trying to argue that our offense wasn't good against Alabama, but we were only 21 points good against them. Again, final score without the blocked FG is 32-21. Their defense did what was needed while we had to hang the entire game on the shoulders of Murray and the offense. Yeah, we could have won, but we didn't, and that loss is still a sore spot with me.
