Run of dominance? A back door title and Covid championship is hardly dominating when you sign double digit top 100 players every class. Talk about doing less with more.


Now this may be the dumbest post I've ever read at anyplace, anytime in the history of reading. I really believe LSU fans have higher expectations for Bama than Bama does.
This Covid championship argument is so dumb. everybody played under the same rules. Bama didn't even have its head coach for its biggest regular season game. The LSU folks just get hacked off that their greatest team ever got replaced merely a season later.
As far as 2011, blame Okie light for not beating a team that was a 34 point underdog. Okie light wins that and you don't have to play Bama again. But...but...Okie was conference champs..yea, in a league that Bama would have swallowed whole and $shite back out.

At least Bama fans are objective enough to say Georgia should have been in the CFP despite getting run the frick out of Atlanta in the SECCG. It would have been a farce had UGA been left out.

He also cried when he bombed as a coach at the highest level.



Not nearly as much as #insecureLSU has cried about him giving them the ultimate frick OFF!!! by going to divisional foe Alabama and ascending to Legend status as the GOAT. Fueled by LSU tears, jealousy, and insecurity from
21-0, 21-17, 20-13, 30-16 and too many more to list.

The greatest QB to ever set foot on their campus getting shut out at home 29-0 might be worth mentioning.

Certainly acted as a catalyst for a revitalized program. Hindsight, it was a great moment for Bama football.


This makes less than zero sense. They had a third consecutive national title on the line (although that was an awfully damn good FSU team that would have been waiting for them) and I could make the argument that one single play was the end of Saban's absolute peak years at Alabama.

Having to edit things to make Saban look like he cries as hard as Brian Kelly. Smh.

Wouldn't be a very good argument considering Saban responded by hiring Lane Kiffin in the offseason and permanently changed the offense at Alabama for the better.

Kiffin was also responsible for getting Tua to 'Bama, so an argument could be made that this play cost UGA another national title.

Then won 3 of the next 5 natties with more to follow. I'll take it any day, something you jealous pricks will never experience. Cry away.

Bama had only won 1 SEC championship during that 4 year stretch dating back to 2010.

We followed the Kick Six up by winning the next 3 SEC Championships, 4 of the next 5 total, 5 consecutive CFB Playoff Appearances, 4 consecutive National Championship appearances beginning in 2015, and have been ranked #1 in the country at some point during every single season since then.

Alabama’s football program post-Kick Six has been good enough to easily be the greatest dynasty of all time by itself.

It's probably the best thing that could have happened to the program, to be perfectly honest. If it weren't for Gus Malzahn and Kick Six, it's likely we don't see the run of dominance Alabama has had since the 2015 season.


Actually I would give the Ole Miss losses more credit on that

I've never understood crying after a loss. I've teared up or flat out bawled dozens of times after wins but that's more understandable IMO. Just overwhelmed with joy that your body doesn't know how else to express itself but with tears of happiness. But tears after a loss? It just seems childish and strange.

And crying after a Georgia win you didn’t have shite to do with isn’t strange? That’s just fricking sad. If you’re going to cry about something, do it over something you’re actually involved in.

Yeah , he’s such a pussy he’s 7-1 vs LSU since that game, won three more national championships and played for three more while running Ed Orgeron back into the swamps of Lafourche Parish and into bed with 25-year old whores with three kids.

It sucked because Bama was set up for yet another NC that year, but the game itself wasn't as bad, or bizarre, as 2010.

Saban made the right call going for the long kick attempt. Bama would have definitely lost in OT...the team was gassed and he knew it.

His whole tenure has been amazing, but his best years were 2009-2013, IMO. His 2011 team was his most dominant and his 2012 team wasn't far behind.

I personally believe his 2011 defense was more dominant than his 2020 offense. That's why I think his absolute peak years were earlier in his time. His teams were more dominant than the rest of the sport.

They won 3 national titles in a 4 year span from 2009-2012 and very possibly would have made that 4/5 if not for the kick six. 4 national titles in 5 years would have been the most untouchable run the sport has ever seen.
