All the pre season talk about how great they were supposed to be (which was totally unwarranted given the way the last season finished) and they were supposed to crush fsu and all that. With the schedule this group has they could become a good football team but easily still have 3 losses. I mean after ULM it’s absolutely brutal for a football team that is still trying to figure it all out.

to me, the most impressive thing about saban above all other things he did great, was his ability to keep his teams focused\grounded. he knew how to make them want to go out there and prove their worth in dominating fashion, regardless of opponent.
