Tua Injured against MSU

[DoyleMcOrange]

Except Florida was historically garbage the last time Bama “fell.” Things have changed.

Um, no.

UF was defending national champs in 97 when Alabama went 4-7 (and UT trounced them in Birmingham on our way to an 11-2 season).

Stop digging.

Wrong.

Bama’s fall isn’t changing our fortune. Our ability to beat UGA and Florida will. Bama has little to do with it.

 

[PA Vol]

Wrong.

I associate Bama’s decline as post-92. When did Florida become a national power?

You've already been wrong twice. I'll give your further opinions the careful consideration they duly deserve.

Alabama has everything to do with it. I'm guessing you're just too young to understand. Nothing wrong with that, I wish I was young enough again to be as misinformed as you.

Okay, boomer.

 

[DoyleMcOrange]

Okay, scrub.

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

Looked bad but I will still wait to see what the medical professionals say. And if they clear him he plays against Auburn. Look what the guy did last week at 90%. You take his fumble and interception before half away they very likely win that game.

There is no way he’ll be back for Auburn

Bama played in the SECCG in 93, 94, and 96, then hit rock bottom in 97.

I disagree with your “association”.

We played in the SECC game in 01, 04, and 07 but I think most people would agree we began to decline after that 2001 season.

Don’t pull a muscle moving that goalpost all by yourself.

Well, he’s right, you’re wrong.

We could lose to Alabama literally every year, and still go to the SECCG. Conversely, we could beat Alabama every year, but if we lose to Georgia and Florida every year we NEVER play in the SECCG. It’s pretty simple math.

 

[DoyleMcOrange]

Yeah, no kidding. No one was talking about 'when the decline could be claimed to have begun'. Hell, I would argue that Alabama's current decline 'has begun'.

But they haven't fallen, not by a long shot.

Done for the season.

Alabama wont be in the Playoffs this season

 

[allvol123]

Alabama wont be in the Playoffs this season

And shouldn't be.

Probably done forever.

Not without Tua, they won't.

 

[RDU VOL#14]

Probably done forever.

I certainly hope not. He seems like a great kid. I hate that for him if that’s the case.

 

[Nerwen Aldarion]

I mean is it worth noting that without Tua, Bama only scored 3 points against Mississippi State?

 

[DoyleMcOrange]

I'm guessing his college career is over for sure. He needs to heal (no more steel bands or adamantium transfusions, really heal) and try to get ready for an NFL tryout sometime in the next couple of years, if he's lucky.

Nah, game was well out of hand. If they really wanted to they could have still done whatever they needed to.

Stranger things have happened, but it would be miraculous if he did. And if so, I have a hard time seeing how he'd ever return to the same level of play. An acetabulum fracture is no joke.

Just tough judging how they’ll do without Tua. I mean they killed Arkansas but that was Arkansas

We know that's what it is? Or is that an educated guess?
