Another thing... Can we talk about keeping Squirrel where he was last night? I know they wanted Thornton there but let's be real. Squirrel has been great there last season and this season. He makes the deep threat work.

Whatever it was didn’t work. Squirrel was great in a limited sample last season. Good coaches can overthink sometimes.

They see a little guy and wanna put him in a little guy spot and put the bigger guy as a deep threat bc that's how it's supposed to be or whatever. But Squirrel White runs and lays hits like he's 40lbs heavier than he is and more importantly, catches a high percentage of throws that come his way.

Dropped 1 spot in the AP. Seems like we are being doubted still from the FLA game.

We gained votes from 260 to 306. The vote distribution changed though.

And yes I'd agree the AP and UF games weigh heavy especially as UF gets whipped by UK.

Not that any of this matters one bit rn, the 2-game stretch of TAMU and Bama will show where we deserve to be regardless.

If you thought it has been bad, wait until Vols play in Tuscalooserville. Odds of a bama holding penalty is non-existent.

Feels like we haven’t had a call in our favor ALL year long. It’s been wild. Holding all game and no flag for PI on that Squirrel catch. Yet they call a weak block in the back on us on the Dee Williams house call. Ridiculous. How is it that we are the only program that doesn’t even get favorable calls at home????

52-49 has it's consequences.



*I hate what the SEC is and I really hate that it's headquarters is in Birmingham, AL.

The block in the back appeared to be in the middle of the field before or as Dee caught the punt. In one sense, it was unnecessary. In another, do you throw the flag? I don’t think that guy was tackling Dee.

The official that threw the flag was standing almost in the end zone and launched the flag 20 yards or so.

I honestly think the ref knew not to throw the flag once the ball was caught. He was just waiting on the catch (we would've declined so..). He'd have thrown it if Squirrel hadn't caught it. And watching at home I was screaming for the flag - I had no clue he caught it at first.

He has the throw the flag. What if we were holding on the play? Penalties would offset.
