quote:OU was his biggest horror game. I wasn’t even considering them a good team. No argument over that one game in two years. The fact remains if Milroe didn’t play great. Like spectacular we aren’t beating a good team. It was the same with Bryce young. Jalen hurts comparisons are ridiculous. Those Alabama teams were so much better than these. Go look at the roster before saying that stuff. Milroe would have had just as much success as hurts if not more. Hurts was a terrible passer at bama. Terrible.
expect Ok you’re way off here. This just isn’t true. If Milroe doesn’t give the ball to Oklahoma 3-4 times, we still have a legitimate shot at winning that game as bad as the play calling was. He didn’t have to play great, just not be terrible

Josh Jacobs was a backup. Calvin Ridley. One of the best defenses we ever had. Most of the team is in the nfl. Lol

My hope is that after this Bowl game, #4 is leaving T-town.
Enough is enough.

I don't know what the frick you're on. He's had alot of bad games. Terrible against Texas. 10-21 passing & -19 rushing vs Arkansas. The Vandy game he threw a pick 6 that we never recovered from.
If he wasn't dogshit vs Michigan we might have another national championship & Saban is still our coach.

Milroe's main problem is that he is playing in an offense that is designed to run entirely through the QB, and he is just not consistent enough to be that guy. It's the kind of offense we've run ever since Tua was here with the sole exception of 2020, and to be frank I'm kind of tired of it. If Superman is out there QBing your team this style of offense scores huge points, but if Clark Kent shows up instead you're screwed. I prefer the old style. In 2009 McElroy went to sleep for basically the middle half of the season, but we just kept steamrolling right along with Ingram and Richardson until he finally woke back up again. In 2015 Coker didn't really come on until the second half of the year, but we managed to survive and advance because we could lean on Derrick Henry. But in the Tua/Young/Milroe eras, if those guys have off games we have no backup plan, and Milroe has suffered from it harder than the other two. He has the worst collection of offensive skill players since 2007 supporting him, and the OL hasn't done much to help out either. When you combine that with the fact that "Clark Kent" Milroe is the Clark Kent-iest of Clark Kents, well, you're going to lose some games when he forgets to bring his cape.

Won the sec title and had a 20-13 win locked up to head to the national title game in the final 2 minutes but the defense couldn’t stop a Michigan offense that wasn’t explosive at all based on our normal opponents.
Won the SEC in spite of Milroe not because of him. In the playoff game the defense held Michigan to 20 points in regulation. That's good enough to win a game, but Milroe produced 116 yards passing and as another poster observed, he paniced on Alabama's last play of the season and ran into a pile of defenders instead of trying to beat one guy to the left. That snap never hit the ground. He field it fine then paniced, which he often does.
Alabama would have made the playoffs is only they had beaten a bad OU team. Milroe produce 0 (zero) touchdowns for Alabama but gifted OU 2 of them . Then he compounded the problem by intentionally missing the tackle as the OU db scored on one of the interceptions.
