Horns vs Tide

I think we should take up a collection on VN and send poor Nicky some consolation flowers.

Texas OL looked impressive for the couple quarters I did watch. Good runs, gave Ewers time to throw, and he delivered.

Hardy Har Har!!

18 years ago Texas stopped the last team the was trying for a three peat. They may be the best chance of denying UGA theirs this season.

I know this is way early. But I wouldn’t be surprised if this is Sabans last year. Not making the playoffs last year and now this start. It will be interesting to see how this plays out this year

The short man has outlasted his potential. Time to retire.

 

[loservol]

Maybe time for Saban to consider retirement.

I think you are going to see a lot more Bama fans thinking about potential replacements for Saban too.

Don’t know if it will be his last year, Saban will leave when he wants. I think he wants another NC and retire on top.

Will he get that? Unsure

 

[ETV]

I mean tn fans think our season is over after an ugly win

Make a change at QB and stop limiting this offense. A win in Gainesville will not be easy.

I agree. He’s not going to stick around to watch his lofty name get tarnished. And the tarnishing train has definitely left the station.

Well it is true, they heard about how we were going to dominate them and I am beginning to wonder if OU and Texas join and start winning 10 or more games right of the bat in year 1.

Missouri did it their first two seasons in the SEC and then they ran out of Texas recruits.

Just pointing out the irony of making fun of Bama fans thinking the sky is falling when our fans are just as bad

 

[OrangeTsar]

Heh, can't wait to hear Finebaum Monday. I'm also loving the SEC chants from Texas fans. Saban got out coached by Sark.

Well, they can’t blame Pete Golding THIS year. Wonder who the scapegoat is this time

 

[AthensVol2007]

Can we stop calling Saban, Sark’s mentor? He was a HC of a top 5-10 program before he ever met Saban. If he could’ve laid off the sauce he’d still be racking up wins there.

The refs?

Missouri did it their first two seasons in the SEC and then they ran out of Texas recruits.

It was 2nd year, they went 5-7 their first year. Texas A&M was the one with Johnny Manziel that won 10 games their first year and then fell off the map from year 2 on.

 

[Cartervol]

Bama's deal has ran its course. Only thing left for Saban is retirement.

Yeah, Austin Peay and Texas are such similar programs

 

[BowlBrother85]

It's hard not to have some serious concerns about our own team given that "performance" earlier tonight ... and yet, all feels right with the world at the moment.

 

[OrangeTsar]

The refs?

Just remember Orange Tsar‘s rules of football, number 7
„Alabama has NEVER been beaten in a football game by a better team. They only give the game away“

 

[Switch 625]

Funny, now that everyone can pay players Bama isn’t dominant.

I think you’re confused. Sark has never won ten games in a season as HC - hasn’t come within miles of running a top ten program. He did well as a coordinator; HC, not so much. Seems to be doing okay at the moment with the cows.

Time to go to X (Twitter) for a fine evening of salty Bama tears and absolute Schadenfreude

Thought Missouri won back to back SECe championships their first two years?
