re: SIAP - LSU is bleeding money

You can only rob the local children's hospital so often.

Chicken finger guy can't just cut a check?
Strength of schedule of each team should be a metric...not just conference strength.

So Texas gets no "credit" for playing Ohio St? Bama gets no credit playing Ohio St next season?

That makes no sense...and yes, it benefits teams like Indiana who schedule ooc as weakly as possible...admitting it. So they get maybe 2-3 remotely loseable conference games...avoid being upset and you stroll into the cfp like you're Notre Dame.

We WANT big ooc games in the regular season. The loser should be minimally penalized and the winner getting big "metric" points.

At the end of the day, I much preferred the BCS computer ranking system.

Arch Manning is on the other team so it's a wash.

Penix back to start for Atlanta on Thursday.

Tua blew his opportunity. Injury or no injury...it really seems like he's not all in on football at this point.
It may be a contract money thing keeping him around, but I don't know if we'll ever see him start again unfortunately.
A playoff elimination game this early in the season will be riveting viewing...thus primetime slot.

Texas vs Tenn is a bigger matchup...but the loser is still alive in the cfp hunt.

This. I sincerely hope them taking the L doesn't make anyone think this won't be a dogfight. If anything, a team coming off a loss has it driven into their heads that nothing will make people forget about a loss like beating "Alabama" the next week.
I understand the strategy on OOS recruiting...but I also think 50%+1 of the student body should be in-state as the state's flagship university. College applicants in general nationally are going down. Schools might need to start rethinking paying six figures to professors to teach 2 classes...and at least hire professors students can understand in class.

UA's campus absolutely blows away Auburn's. au has Samford Hall that everyone takes pics in front of, but the rest of the campus is nothing special.

Someone mentioned safety of the city...while I think Tuscaloosa is fine, the fact is most publications would rank auburn as the better place to live. The reality is that there's not really a huge difference.

I live in south AL. auburn is "easier" to get to. Mobile to Tuscaloosa is mainly 2 lane, dangerous roads...to auburn it's interstate the whole way. They're 4 laning segments of 45...but it'll be decades before there's a straight 4 lane highway from Mobile to Tuscaloosa.

I wish they'd at least have 4 laned hwy 82 all the way to I-65 in Prattville.
I really didn't think it was THAT big of a deal. Sure, he shouldn't have said it to the media, but we aren't freakin' snowflakes...obviously not ideal to insult basically who allows for those direct deposits to keep showing up though.

And again, if there were boos I didn't hear any...of course I also was sitting near that !*%$@! FSU band playing that war chant ad nauseum.

He doesn’t really want to work in Tuscaloosa, coach the Crimson Tide, or a combination of the two.


This.

I don't think he wants to be in the south.

But he's being paid to coach well so do it.

FWIW, I didn't hear any boos at the game...but everyone out there are basically millionaires now so suck it up buttercup.

This. Used to know who our third string long snapper was...now I honestly can't name our starting OL. The players are just numbers now for the most part. Kinda sad.

That's on the player, but also really bad coaching. In that situation there was absolutely no reason to rush the punter like we were down two scores. No excuse.

Secondary is supposed to be the strength of the entire team.

They were embarrassed.
We're 3-0.

Let's wait to lose a game before firing the coach.

Geez...
not a game the secondary will put on the highlight reel
awesome run...right to me...beautiful sight
keep attacking the edges in the run game...they're tired
