If Cincinnati doesn’t score before half they are screwed…. Alabama makes crazy adjustments in the 2nd half

Is everyone in the FF completely miserable? They seem so

Tillman also got over 1,000 yards.

And we broke the all-time scoring record. After having one of our worst modern offenses last year.

We put up 666 yards and 45 points.

Lots of silver linings imo. Don't have 150 yards in penalties, OR a missed pass interference in the last minute, OR the awful miss at the end...and this is a completely different discussion today about a tough, resilient team.

I won't let any of that keep from me from high expectations for next year. I still fully think we should win 7 next season, with a good shot at 8 (regular season). 6 wins and 9 wins on the outer distribution edges.

We have a huge window next year for sure. Injuries on one hand, or unexpected contributions on the other could have us from 6-10+ wins. I truly believe that if we can somehow avoid significant injuries, and somehow put a solid defense out there next year that ten regular season wins is possible plus a bowl win.

I could also see a string of bad early injuries causing a weaker offense and defense and therefore put us in the 5-6 win range.

Such is life with zero depth.

Even if his knee hadn't touched, his forward progress was stopped

On our way to “two hand touch”

I agree. After Saban rips them a new one at half they will come out fired up. Bama doesn't look like the same team that tore GA apart.

Funny you should ask… I’m back at the ER. When I left I told the doctor and nurse that my a** was hurting and they just said it’s hemorrhoids and keep it clean. Had my wife check it and it’s the size of a golf ball and I’m back at the ER. They fast tracked me so I think they know they screwed up. But may be looking at another surgery today. 2021!!!

Dang brother...sorry you're going through this. Will certainly be praying.

What is especially mind-boggling to me is that everyone seemed to think that a forward progress call was not reviewable (including the officiating crew on the field and in the booth last night), when it actually is very reviewable. It is called out as a reviewable play. How an entire officiating crew cannot know that is beyond comprehension.

Forward progress isn’t reviewable. Because the play is dead upon the ruling of forward progress.

Might as well ask what we think would happen if Neyland Stadium grew legs and did a cannonball into the Tennessee River. Fun to think about, but we will never know.

I don't think that thinking about that is fun at all

That's not what the rule book says

Cincy's punter does a lot of mouthing for being no bigger than a toothpick. lol

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

If we had Alontae last night, we win that game.

He and Turnage both being out was the straw that broke our already weak defenses back. Knowing how much Alontae loves his team, you have to think he regrets not being there for them for the rest of his days...especially if his pro career never goes anywhere.

On the other hand, I think they deliberately picked on #4 last night on third down, so it may not have mattered as much, but I think he would have been good for at least one extra stop...and that would have been enough to be the difference.

He was doing the Conor McGregor walk after one of the punts

 

[drvenner]

if you noticed, he did not answer your question which means he is using a different user name...

Oh, I noticed.

 

[drvenner]

I hate to admit it, but I want Bama to win this game just for further insurance that UGA does not win a National championship. Bama getting knocked off their high horse wouldn’t be worth a higher likelihood of intolerable UGA smugness.

I would still enjoy the Bama tears. It would almost be worth it.

 

[TheRain]

It's taken me a little while to decide which ESPN channel to watch the game on.

Yes, that's why we're in the RF.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

That’s their legacy? WHAT?!

Ignore that pos and you will feel better.

 

[Orangeburst]

I got no beef...other folks just didn't see what I saw.

TWSS..sorry McGill
Had to be done if not already

 

[Orange Studs]

I saw that. LOL

 

[TheMookieMonster]

It must be nice to have a team whose defense even in a “down year” is still this good. I am confident Heupel is an offensive genius after this season. If we can ever get a defense that’s even close to “down year” Alabama we might win an SEC championship.

Bama is gonna end up winning this game by 40 points.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I just hope that Verse or any other players on the D side of the ball that is in the portal and watched the game and think they dont want no part of this D . It was hard to watch them leaving WRs wide open and not getting any push and players out of position. I know it shows we need players but they do not look well coached on that side of the ball.

If you think the DL is not well coached..then..

Cincinnati sucks , 72 total yards ? Vandy could beat that crap
