Rose Bowl Game: #1 Michigan vs #4 Alabama (5PM EST, ESPN)

[DaddyChad]

I'm fairness, we did that to them as well. They have been a second half team this year for the most part.

In fairness we got screwed in the second half of that game. Looked like a damn UFC fight instead of a football game with our Dline getting chokeholded most series. The play where they scored one TD had the most glaring examples of holding I’ve seen that wasn’t called. SEC did everything in their power to get a mediocre Bama team into the playoffs and to be fair Bama probably can win it all.

 

[Volizona]

Ugh. I hate hearing Kirk and Fowler drool over their “precious” Big 10 team with that Mich score, but I also loved seeing Saban’s veins pop out of his head.

 

[Carl Pickens]

Michigan is more physical.

 

[CR-vol]

Any Michigan fan feeling good right now definitely hasn't ever seen what Alabama tends to do in the second half. That 1 missed point might be awfully costly...

 

[Cartervol]

Michigan is more physical.

Sure looks like it. I thought we were in the first half of our game too..

 

[zeppelin128]

So where are the people who said Bama was gonna smoke the cheaters?

We are still here, just surprised. Too early to call it yet, this is Bama after all. Though it is nice to see another team physically dominate them.

 

[JoeMiltonsAgent]

Michigan better hold serve here.

Be a shame to go into half time down a point as well as they played so far

 

[AthensVol2007]

Are you serious right now?

Michigan is the cheaters and yes they’re more physical so far.

 

[99gator]

Completely dominating this game and looking very much like the superior team and going into halftime trailing would be the most Michigan thing ever

I don’t like Harbaugh at all, don’t trust anyone with photochromic lenses, and think Michigan fans are annoying. But none of that outweighs my disdain for Alabama and their fans. I’m Big Blue tonight.

 

[Volizona]

I’m not a Dawgs fan like JoeVol, but I think Georgia is better than both of these teams.

 

[AthensVol2007]

So where are the people who said Bama was gonna smoke the cheaters?

We’ve all seen Bama only play 1 half, every game.

 

[99gator]

All of sudden Milroe has pass protection

 

[Carl Pickens]

Sure looks like it. I thought we were in the first half of our game too..

Saban and co. needs to make some serious adjustments

 

[Dudleys87]

Michigan is the cheaters and yes they’re more physical so far.

So essentially you are wanting Bama to win.


Noted.

 

[Cartervol]

Saban and co. needs to make some serious adjustments

Well. So far they've bottled up Milroe til right then.

 

[Zues1]

I think the answer is pretty easy here. Hard to dominate the LOS when you’re used to getting away with mugging the dlinemen if need be.

Are they throwing flags on Bama for holding?
I must have missed it.

 

[DC_Vol]

Are they throwing flags on Bama for holding?
I must have missed it.

They aren’t. I’ve seen a few egregious holds back there too.

 

[Boston Vol]

Drives me nuts when receivers feel the need to go backwards after catching a pass.

 

[AthensVol2007]

I’m not a Dawgs fan like JoeVol, but I think Georgia is better than both of these teams.

I think Saban spent multiple weeks preparing for the UGA game, only thing that explains slowing them down the way they did.

 

[Carl Pickens]

Bama actually got screwed on a running into the kicker call earlier …. Couldn’t believe my eyes

 

[JoeMiltonsAgent]

How do you not adjust protection on that sack ? Lmao

 

[AthensVol2007]

So essentially you are wanting Bama to win.


Noted.

I’m explaining what the OP meant. I don’t recall saying anything about who I want to win. Michigan cheated by illegally scouting opponents and they’re whipping Bama physically. Nothing more, nothing less.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

I don’t care who wins this game tbh. It’s picking poison. You’re most hated rival vs overrated cheaters.

 

[zeppelin128]

I wonder if Saban has flashbacks to the Kick 6 every time they kick a 50+ yarder?

Edit: well never mind, he could have hit that from 60
