1.) I don’t care what anyone says about Damien Harris, yes, he’s good, he’s really good, but Josh Jacobs is the best RB on this team, and it’s not close.

2.) Jedrick Wills 3 penalties in a row, 2 of them were complete BS.

3.) I’ve said it all season. Our defense isn’t the same as past years. If Alabama doesn’t win the National Championship, it will be the defense that will let us down.

4.) Jerry Jeudy, Henry Ruggs III, DeVonta Smith, Jaylen Waddle...dear Fcking God. It’s pretty much like having 4 Amari Cooper’s or 4 Calvin Ridley’s playing together all at once.

5.) Tua is so good for so long now, we are starting to take him for granted. So I’ll say it...WOW. Last night he was flawless. He’s one of the best College Football Players of All-Time, and he’ll be the 1st Pick of the NFL Draft.

It was pretty obvious that we were going to take a step back this season.

Having said that, our defense held Oklahoma to 15 points and 100 yards below their season average.

If our DB's can catch possible turnovers that hit them in the hands the narrative would be a little different today relative to the defense. There was at least two balls that should have been picked, and another that could have been picked.

The DB's are not producing turnovers, and that is a concern IMO.

My main take is that we still have no fricking clue how to cover an eligible receiver coming out of the backfield.

1. Bama’s offense continues to lose focus for long stretches of each game.

2. The coaches are playing personnel politics at times.

3. If he had time, Tua’s accuracy is incredible.

4. Tua needs to learn to go down or throw it away when a play is blown up.

5. This is Saban’s worst Bama defense.

Bonus: Bama’s coaching staff has been exposed in the last 2 games. Fortunately, Bama has the talent to overcome.

Most great teams play with that confidence that can lead to those penalties...don't agree with it just happens alot.

I only have one takeaway or question, rather. Why did Tua not seem very confident about his ankle during post game interview? and what was he saying about it when he was laying in the confetti?
