re: Does Kirby have one more mulligan or does he need to beat Saban next year?

Pre-season I thought it was Georgia’s time to take the reigns. 

Maybe it’s next year. However, I am starting to think that we have a strong chance of standing in the way again next year. We have the best collection of skill players that we have ever had at Alabama. We are gonna be tough again next year. 

I think after next year we lose our current nucleus of great players. I think UGA continues its rise to become the dominant SEC power for a while. 

It’s the way of the world. Things change. The young overthrow the old. Saban can’t keep it going like this forever. I see us being great for a good long while, but I think eventually UGA becomes the ELITE program after Tua and Co. leave the Capstone.

We've heard it all before. Players change, coaches change. There is only one thing that has been consistent in the last 10 years. Alabama. No program in sports has been more "clutch" than Alabama.
