This Saturday will be the first time since then that Alabama will have played a game in the regular season without having a chance at winning the national title.

And LSU ended it

After the last two seasons I feel like I’m in a dream

It started with LSU providing the platform for Saban to evolve into what he is now, so it's only fitting to end with LSU as well...

Oh, you still have a chance but it's not much of one.

it was the loss to LSU in 2010 that ended the streak they had started in 2008.

Going further back, this weekend's game will be only the 7th "meaningless" game from an NC perspective, regular season or postseason, that Bama has played since the 2007 Music City Bowl vs Okie State:

1. 2008 vs Utah (Sugar Bowl)
2. 2010 vs MSU
3. 2010 vs GA State
4. 2010 vs Auburn
5. 2010 vs Michigan State (Cap One Bowl)
6. 2019 vs Michigan (Citrus Bowl)


Words fail.

It’s been a lot of fun no doubt.

I won’t be shocked if Georgia gets on a run. I could see them being in the hunt for a couple more years

NIL is legal; Bama sucks. Not a coincidence.

Yes much respect for that. It’s been a hell of a run

I mean yes in retrospect, but in 2011, Bama and pretty much everyone thought they were out of the race and played all games after LSU with no chance at the national title. Kind of like right now.

There is a super long shot they could still get there(like in 2011) and if anyone gets mulligans, we know it is Bama.

I could have sworn in 2019 Bama fans said they lost the Iron Bowl because they didn’t have a shot at the playoffs.
