Alabama's wildcat QB next year?
re: Confused by the Mack talk - Is KR not playing this weekend?
Posted by Amarillo Tide on 11/11/26 at 12:24 pm to KingOfTheWorld
I think/hope KR plays just enough to get a decent lead (maybe 21 points) and then Mack goes the rest of the way. Honestly, if KR is really banged up, he probably should rest most, if not all of UT Chattanooga. Heck, we could probably win that game with Jett Thomalla at QB.

Damien is an ALUMNUS of UA. Alumni would be referring to more than one person who have graduated from Alabama, e.g. "My family are all Alabama alumni."
A female graduate of a school is an "alumna".
Just trying to be Mr. Helper here.

Damien may have "Greg McElroy Syndrome" where in an attempt to be "unbiased" he goes out of his way to diss Alabama. Nevertheless, he has the right to have his opinion. Even if it's WRONG.
Good write up about yesterday

You do realize Metz led the team in tackles yesterday, right?
Qua Russaw and James Smith yesterday
Posted by Amarillo Tide on 11/8/26 at 10:06 am
Combined for a whopping 3 tackles yesterday in OSU’s loss. I’m sure OSU massively overpaid for both those guys.

To be fair, while Lee wasn’t great by any means, he didn’t get torched quite as bad as I expected.
Luke Metz played well.That was a clutch INT he had. I saw where he knocked the living crap out of Leavitt on one of his scrambles. He’s been a very pleasant surprise this year.
Been noticing Chuck McDonald has been making some plays lately.

Not afraid of the Aubs but they DID beat UGA in their house. Their QB is so erratic but if he gets on a hot streak, he can be dangerous. He's also a really big dude and difficult to bring down. To underestimate them would be a mistake.

I'm not one to believe EVERYTHING you see you see on this board but it amazes me how many people we have on here, anytime someone posts something that sounds plausible and is based on information from a personal source, we have people who instantly crap all over the poster.
It's like they're angry that they weren't privvy to this information and because of that, they feel the need to mock and ridicule the original poster.

WHY ARE OUR CORNERS LINING UP 10-12 yds OFF THE LOS?!?!?!!

I see just about every good team out there can pick up that tough one yard. Not us

Agree with this. What I’d like to see:
1. Our corners man up about 12 inches from the LOS. None of this give them 10-15 yards. That is absolute lunacy.
2. Unless it’s 3rd or 4th and 30+ yards, none of this rushing three guys. Need to have a minimum of four guys applying pressure at all times.
3. SET THE EDGE!!!!! Our defense is very inconsistent (at best) in setting the edge and not losing contain. Must be more consistent.

re: Ryan Grubb's RB usage may have Alabama on the verge of losing 4-star RB Nigel Newkirk

I truly don't expect anyone to replicate Saint Nick. Not gonna happen, probably ever. The landscape of CFB has changed probably forever and definitely not for the better. Unless you're Notre Dame or maybe Miami, the days of teams going undefeated are probably over. I accept all that.
What I don't accept and what enrages me is seeing a staff that is completely and totally unprepared for at least one game every year. This year, it was UT. Last year, FSU. Let's be honest, the staff did a horrible job preparing.for those games.

I truly hope CKD can be successful. I'd like to see it. He's not going to be fired after this season (can't afford it, regardless of how bad it might get), so he'll absolutely be back next season but IMO, his coaching seat will be molten magma hot if he loses two more games this year.
And if he still can't get it together next year (e.g. four losses in the season), I think CKD is out and probably Greg Byrne will be canned too.

I still think Greg Byrne is gonna make CKD get rid of Grubb once the season is over.

I hope I'm wrong and would be ecstatic to be wrong-
LSU 35
Bama 24
Rico with 70 yards receiving.

I expect us to lose. I just feel Grubb is either too stupid to realize he HAS to change the offense OR is too delusional to realize what he’s doing simply isn’t working.
The frustrating part is (at least to me) he COULD do some things to help Keelon (e.g. introduce some hot routes, quick pass to a TE, screen pass, roll Keelon out, etc). Will he do that? I hope so, but I have zero faith in him.I’d love to be wrong, though.

Lane almost can’t help himself from doing something insane from time to time. It’s almost like an involuntary reflex with him. Hopefully he does something bone headed and it blows up in his face.
I don’t know if we could be that lucky though.

re: What do you you think Grubb worked on this off week?
Posted by Amarillo Tide on 11/2/26 at 1:05 pm to Shocco
If he has any sense, he'll be working on slant patterns, quick passes to the TE, etc because everyone from here on out is going to come with some kind of blitz literally every single play because Grubb has shown he has no answer for it.
The fact he has had no answer for it and it may even cost him and CKD their jobs, you would think he would find some kind of way of dealing with it.
That and the ongoing inability to not be able to pick up ONE YARD on a consistent basis would seem to me to be a real need. I watch a lot of college football and I see almost every team out there being able to pick up ONE YARD. Not Bama. Drives me crazy.

I know DH isn’t going to carry the ball 40 times in a game but holy cow, he should be getting WAAAAAY more carries than the Ravens have been giving him this year.
