[quote]Bama’s roster with Saban in 2007 is laughable compared to what they are now.[/quote]
This is about as right a statement as you will ever see. Terry Grant was starting RB for goodness sakes. 2007 Bama was a 5 win team AT BEST that got 7 someway, somehow. ...
re: These GMs are overthinking things not drafting Brock Bowers
Posted by TouchdownTony on 4/19/24 at 1:58 pm
Brock Bowers is the best player in the draft. GM's are sending out smoke screens so they can have him fall to their team. I haven't seen a TE with his athleticism since Keith Jackson at OU. If I were a GM and had the first pick I take Bowers. There's that....

[quote]Thank Saban.[/quote]
How stupid. He's the one that tried to warn you then tried to get it fixed.
It's idiots that mocked him and told him to stop whining that has gotten us where we are. If anything you should be thanking Saban for trying to stop it....
re: SEC Football Schedule
Posted by TouchdownTony on 4/18/24 at 8:10 pm
Nothing has been decided past next year. I suspect they will delay it another year and another and another due to the inability to get everyone to agree. The SEC wants to keep its tradition intact with games like Aub-UGA, Bama-UT, Iron Bowl, Egg Bowl, Ole miss-LSU, UGA-UF, OU-Texas but would like...

[quote]For years, the NCAA was well aware that all the big colleges were paying players under the table, and instead of dealing with it and handing out heavy penalties/sanctions, the NCAA chose to look the other way [/quote]
Hell naw they didn't. We Bama fans have always said a one year death pe...

“Did you guys really fall for the Ole Miss being a contender next year thing? “
Yes, most here, especially the younguns think Lane is a football god. Thanks goodness Byrne didn’t want to go that route because Kiffin would have crawled to ttown for that job. ...
re: SEC legend, former Alabama QB Steve Sloan has passed away at the age of 79
Posted by TouchdownTony on 4/15/24 at 4:11 pm
Probably the most forgotten QB legend in SEC history. Steve just didn't lose.
That Orange Bowl against Nebraska he had 296 yds passing which back then was like 550 today. RIP Steve....
re: Bama can’t afford to lose Ty Simpson
Posted by TouchdownTony on 4/15/24 at 1:04 pm
Ty isn't going anywhere. Nobody thinks Milroe is the answer. Deboer is trying to handle this the best way. As one "anonymous" coach said after last season if Bama would have stuck with Simpson after the USF game they would have zero questions at QB in 2024....
re: What is your favorite Verne Lundquist SEC football memory?

re: After your team's spring game, how you feeling about the upcoming season?
Posted by TouchdownTony on 4/14/24 at 10:21 pm
Spring game. Lots of players playing that wouldn’t otherwise. I usually take nothing from these games. I’ve seen over 40 Bama spring games in my life and it is never like what you see in the fall. ...

The SEC doesn't have 5. They have 3. Bama, Texas and OU. Still better than most conferences. The B1G has 3 now, the ACC none, the Pac 12 none and now the Big 12 has none....
re: SEC baseball teams with 12 or more losses in SEC play

Seriously? Bama has to have more than 12 losses. I don't keep up much with it but I know they've been getting swept left and right from what I've seen....
re: Bama A-Day .. no Defense
Posted by TouchdownTony on 4/14/24 at 7:34 pm
....and here we go. You can ALWAYS watch a spring game and see how a team is gonna do. If the defense plays great the offense sucks...right? I always harken back to the 2014 A-day game when Bama QB's were like 8-33 passing and proceeded to break every school passing record in the fall....

Bama wasn’t very good the last couple seasons. Saban even said as much. ...
