Bama vs. UT 06

[Vol423]

when was bama's last sec championship.

the sec's best team should be able to win their own division more then every 7 years.

Bama fans hold on dearly to the past because that's all they've had to brag about for quite a while. I just hope Fulmer & Co. get things turned around in Knoxville quickly or Georgia and LSU fans will be saying the same thing about us.

Well tvols fan. We actually won our division in 02 but were on probation. I think we will have a good chance of winning our division in 07 but this year I think bama will lose at least 3 Sec games. Florida, Auburn, LSU and maybe UT or Arkansas. it will be a tough season this year due to the very difficult schedule.

WTH happend? After almost everyone on here telling him how silly he was, he suddenly developed into a semi-knowledgable football fan?

No doubt that Bama loses the three you mentioned. I'm in the process of predicting all the games for every college team, and I have Bama at 8-4.

 

[orangetd88]

Bammer trolls smell like cabbage.

 

[GOT TWELVE?]

I predict 8-4 this year. 9 wins would make me happy, but I am thinking 8. RTR.

 

[Alley]

I think Bama has bigger problems than trying to beat us this year...as in their horrendous home schedule:

Hawaii
Vandy
La-Monroe
Duke
Ole Miss
Florida Intl.
Moo State
Auburn

God that's ugly...their first exciting home game won't happen until the Iron Bowl...

Hey Troll tell your granny to put on something decent when taking you to games.

I think the Tide is trying to claim a 13th National Championship as a result of Taylor Hicks' victory on American Idol.

Bama fans are still pissed that Forrest Gump didn't win the Heisman.

They got a 13th when Rubon won. 14th would be with Taylor.

Man, now that's really a tough home schedule which will likely give them their Seven Win Season and a trip to another National Championship, in their own minds. They are a sure matchup in the newly foundation Turnip Green and Chitterlings Bowl that will be played annually in Tuscaloosa.

This guy works on a wave length either way above or way below the average on this board... but given the fact he can't get the cap locks thing figured out I'll go with the later.

Given the way Cutcliffe butchered Kines when the latter was at Arkansas and UGA, I hope that matchup decides the game.

As for Alabama's "National Titles"........
The Associated Press Poll has been active since 1936. The AP took their final poll prior to bowl games from 1936 - 1964 and in 1966 and 1967. They took their final poll after the bowl games in 1965 and from 1968 - Current.

History of Polls
1925 National Championship- Alabama claims they share this one with Dartmouth. Who awarded the NC? Houlgate and Helms. Houlgate started his system in 1927. So Bama won their 1925 NC using a formula that didn't exist until 1927? Helms Athletic Foundation started in 1941. Another incredible retroactive NC.

1926 National Championship- Alabama claims they share this one with 3 other teams with equal or better records! Once again it is the Helms Athletic Foundation in 1941 that awards it!

1930 National Championship- The Davis poll says that Bama tied Notre Dame for NC this year. This was the only one to award it to Bama. Notre Dame was named NC in 6 polls! Parke Davis is another retroactive system! He (an individual, not an organization) did his in 1933!

1934 National Championship- Alabama says they share this with two other teams. The awarders are Dunkel, Williamson, and Football Thesaurus. Dunkel was an individual who came up with his own system. Williamson was a geologist who came up with his own system. Football Thesaurus first appeared in 1946!

1941 National Championship- This is a complete joke. The AP ranked Alabama 20th in the nation with 14 teams with better records in the top 20. Once again it is the Football Thesaurus that retroactively awards it. Alabama finished 3rd in the SEC that year.

1961 National Championship- Finally a legitimate NC. One poll didn't give it to Bama though.

1964 National Championship- While the AP did award the NC to Bama (10-1-0), Arkansas had the better record, 11-0. Alabama played Texas in their bowl and LOST. The AP final poll was before the bowl.

1965 National Championship- The AP gave this to Bama. That year there were three teams with better records than Bama. Bama 9-1-1, Michigan St 10-1-0, Arkansas 10-1-0, Nebraska 10-1-0.

1973 National Championship- AP puts Bama 4th after their bowl game loss. Bama claims a NC from the UPI poll that was taken before they met Notre Dame in the bowl game and lost. There were 3 teams with better records than Bama that year. The embarrassment of naming Alabama number one caused the UPI to name champions after bowl games.

1978 National Championship- AP gives this to Alabama(11-1-0) even though USC (12-1-0) had the better record Guess who Alabama lost to that year? USC!!!!!!!!!. UPI gave the NC to USC.

1979 National Championship- Their second legitimate NC. Their first Unanimous NC.

1992 National Championship- Their third legitimate NC. Their second Unanimous NC.

You can see why people ridicule Bama fans when they talk about 12 NCs. The early ones were awarded by individuals years after the games were played. These weren't consensus polls but NCs awarded by people that had their own formula for determining champions. Some NCs where given before bowl games that Bama lost. Using Alabama logic, Auburn could claim four national championships. But when Bammers brag they like to say they have twelve and Auburn has one. How silly.

The NCAA recognizes 6 NCs for Bama and there are only two NCs that Bama has unanimously. You can't find an Auburn site claiming four national championships but there are plenty Bama sites claiming twelve.

I can't remember what website it is, but there is a site that lists every possible NC. And, using Alabama logic, TENNESSEE ALSO HAS TWELVE!!!!! I'm not kidding. It was some site that listed every ridiculous NC possible. Does anybody know what site I'm talking about?

Forgive my internet ignorance, what is a troll?

Someone from another school who comes onto the board and flames or gets the locals fired up?

 

[UTGRADnNC]

:dance2: :dance2: :dance2:

That may very well be, the funniest thing I've ever read on this board.

 

[GAVol]

Forgive my internet ignorance, what is a troll?

Someone with a personality disorder that makes them post in such as way as to rile people up and bait people into responses.

Would I be a troll in the pub? :blink:

 

[volinbham]

Would I be a troll in the pub? :blink:

There's a difference between legitimate discussion and posts simply designed to anger others and encourage a flood of negative posts.

For example, if I went on a Bama board :yuck: and posted something about the Bear being a drunk or something like that just to get other posters riled up then I'd be trolling.

Plus, the Pub is more of an open forum.
