And the magnitude of it all. Arch rival with a new (apparent) up-and-coming coach for a trip to the SECCG and most likely NC and the loss happens on a highlight clip that is still played throughout the season over a decade later.


Didn’t the game end and Saban argued to get time added so he could even try the kick?

The worst loss was losing Saban.



Was a big loss perhaps but ultimately he had to retire at some point. I am very glad for him he is able to do it with a decade or two left of good health. Dude seems like he can live to 100.

9-6


Alabama was clearly 21 points better than that team.

Louisiana Monroe must be most embarrassing, but that's erased by all the titles. Kick Six must be most gut-punch like.

No question: 44-16 beat down by Clemson in the NCG.

All bro had to do was show up at practice and and calls some plays during the game. What else was Saban trying to get him to do?


Watch film on Clemson and make a gameplan?

Hilarious coming from a uga fan.


Out of respect for Bama, I want to have a real conversation and not just trade insults, so let's discuss it at a better time.

How about we meet again after both of our teams' Playoff games?

Win or lose, Saban was going to retire and what a way that
could have been to go out.


I honestly do not believe Saban had decided at that point to retire.

I do believe he "spur of the moment" decided after trying to talk to some key players about the next season and all they wanted to discuss was NIL and how they might use the portal if the numbers weren't what they wanted.

Stupidity is not knowing when someone is calling you stupid.

Your implication, by repeating the "wisdom" of some unidentified BAMA sage, is that BAMA wasn't a champion in 2021 because they didn't recruit "Championship depth."
It is fricking grade A, primo stupidity to suggest a team can lose the offensive production of Metchie and Jamo in the final 2 games of the season respectfully and just plug new guys in their positions in those games and not have a drop in offensive production. And no, it isn't the same as losing players to injury in Week 1.
I tried to dumb it down for you by stating outright why this is a stupid argument by pointing to a team with which I figured you'd be familiar, and how that team wouldn't have been successful had they lost their offensive production (Herschel). I can see that your Zero Kelvin IQ can't support such a comparison.
You have my condolences.

Perhaps we can discuss it after uga has a winning record vs BAMA?? That way I'll NEVER have to discuss anything with you.

Saban biggest weakness was offense. Nothing wrong with stating the truth.

Had Tua not had the inexplicable fumble then Alabama would have won the game.
WTF?! The score was 33-13 at half time!

21 of bama’s points came in the 4th quarter in garbage time while the men had let the foot off the gas.

LSU ran the ball down your throat in the closing seconds and yall couldn’t stop shite.

Bama fans are in a utter state of embarrassment......reminiscing about national titles they should of won knowing the might not win one for a long long time.

That first half fumble was a 14 point swing and contributed to that half time differential. Final score was 46-41. Thank you for reinforcing my point.

up 21-3 against a 3rd QB with one of the best running backs to ever roam the earth....and instead of feeding him the ball allowing Lane to throw the ball with Blake sims


That was one of the most puzzling gameplans I've ever seen. Kiffin outsmarted himself. Yeldon and Henry were just trampling that OSU defense and they were powerless to do anything about it. And then Kiffin stopped calling run plays.

Sark sucked as the OC, but he got a free pass since Kiffin got fired the same week.


This was in 2016. 44-16 was in 2018, Mike Locksley was OC. Sark was re-hired 2019.

Burrow lost a fumble too, so we should add 14 back to LSU’s score too by that logic.
