Admittedly, I haven't been able to watch much Bama football lately. So, this week I have been trying to brush up on some big name players with a little film study.

The following is a clip of Alabama player Jesse Williams "being awesome": LINK

He obviously drives the QB into the ground well after the release of the ball. Very Nick Fairley-esque IMO. Almost identical to the play when Fairley pulled a cheap shot on Mallet, knocking him out of the game.

Has Jesse developed a reputation on the field for being a "dirty" or "thuggish" player as say a Nick Fairley or a Lamichael Fanning?

I heard Alabama has a very lucrative Bounty program.

He was answering his question from the previous play. What's it like Down Under?

No, pussy, thats not a dirty play. Good lord, you State fans are fricking annoying.

And Fanning is not considered dirty or thuggish. It was one play that was technically legal. STFU.

No, he set him down gently and gave him a pacifier and a sippy cup full of milk, with a nipple on it.

Surely you can't be serious.

Is that why Saban had his secretary write an apology letter to the player?

I think our interior will be up for the challenge.

I didn't realize the suplex was a form of blocking they coached in college football.

Part of the funds we pay into the REC go to funding said program.

No. We leave all our thug shite to fanning . But on an sad note for State, Fanning will probably be the starter by the start of the third quarter.

We teach our players that tackling and pushing and stiffarming are for dirty players, and we'll have none of that.

When the opposing quarterback is scrambling, we allow our players to run after them yelling "THROW IT! THROW IT NOW!" But that's all.
