Your right, but LSU was a better team than UGA and should have won the game. The choke wasn't that we lost the choke came when we didn't even show up.

BTW UT's choke to LSU in '01 was greater because not only was UT higher ranked and playing for BCSNCG berth, but it also had the lead in the game. Furthermore, bama's loss came to a team that was #2 in the country and is playing for NC.

It wasn't that they choked as much as they just kinda completely came apart in every possible phase of a football game.

I do not remember a complete three phase collapse in a single quarter like that in a game before.

They got beat by a better team, the game was back and forth, its not like Bama had the game won. Florida was the more talented team and that showed up in the 4th qtr. Seriously you dislike for Saban is making you like an idiot, do yourself a favor and walk away from the computer.

Really did you watch the 4th qtr of the LSU/Ark game because that was a choke.

I actually still like Saban a great deal. I am sure he is pretty steamed about what happened.

Sure and your claim that Bama choked is just a reasonable observation.

Dude, you need to make up your mind, I thought you said it was the biggest choke job and now you are saying we came apart. Either way, I will say it again..the better team won..we couldn't compete with their talent in the fourth quarter. I actually thought we could, but we just didn't have it in us. They made the plays and we didn't, simple as that.

Well there was a point they were competing and winning the game, and then there was a very long period in the game where everything they tried seemed to not only fail, but fail miserably. Not sure why everyone has a problem with the word choke.

I will repeat, I am not flaming. Considering what was at stake in the game and how close Alabama came to getting there, I really think there it makes choke a legitimate way to describe the game. Sorry you do not disagree. You seem very level headed about all of this.

That is fine if you want to use choke, it is your opinion. It was really hard losing that game, but hopefully we will be back there again someday.

Sorry if I upset you and other Alabama fans. It might be a little too soon to look at it objectively for their fans, and I totally understand that.

I am not going to dignify that childish flame with a reply. You should watch how some of the more mature Alabama fans that post here and take notes.

You didn't upset me. I would be one sad person if I let all of the hate bother me on this message board. It may get under my skin, but nothing will change the opinions that someone else has of you on here.

All you've done is flame. I was just showing what a flamer you are. You've contributed about jack shite here today, as your own fan base has acknowledged.

You should not be this upset. So Alabama had the first biggest choke in 2008 and then the second biggest choke in 1994. Let it go buddy.

I think you are still a little hot about the trophy thread from yesterday.

And then you came in here and realized Alabama in 2008 choked in a way that has not been seen before in the history of SEC football. 1994 also. Its alot to digest.
