Saban begging his fans for crowd noise lol

Sounds a little worried

Sounds a little worried

After last season and what's on the line for Saban and bama, I have no doubt that this will be a hornets nest for us. We'll find out what we're made of on Saturday.

WGWTFA. Nick got a haircut so he'll look better in this year's "losing it" meme

It's like Hadden paid a PR firm or something





I'm really happy for him, hard work!!

He's due for the game of his life or a massive humbling this weekend. Hope it's a pick 6

Talk your trash, 5…

Alabama - 24 Texas - 34

Alabama does NOT scare me. Sure they can win because we're not a great road team. But Alabama is vulnerable and will give us plenty of chances to win.

What's the purpose of that rule?

to keep teams from jumping back and forth to different classifications

 

[Enki_Amenra]

That's real?? More relevant question...why??

Because the copyright expired and Winnie the Pooh is now public domain, so some people decided that movie would be a good idea.

I was just reliving a Tuscaloosa memory in another thread. My buddy and I went to a game over there a while back and were treated terrible. We were cussed, called smokey humpers, had all manner of sundry items thrown at us. Just awful.
We did piss on Nick's statue, so maybe that had something to do with it.

Weird. In that case, feels like the NCAA should only apply that rule to independents and just let the conferences police that.

 

[Glitch]

to keep teams from jumping back and forth to different classifications

Why would teams go to all of the trouble to move up or down in classification over and over and over. Seems like a huge waste of time and resources for the schools that would be in the pool that would be doing that?

I was going to watch it, but then I decided to drop a 50 lb dumbbell on my junk. I got the better of the deal.

Behind the AI magic that lets Amazon's Prime Vision show the NFL like never before

The predictive Defensive Alert teaches itself through data who's blitzing before the ball is even snapped.

theathletic.com

"The data includes the players' acceleration, their orientation and where they are facing. From all that data, the machine starts to understand familiar movement patterns from the defense as a whole, which helps it predict which player is going to blitz."

Wut…

My children actually screen all the offerings from Disney before allowing my grandkids to watch their stuff. Hard to believe that it's come to the point of lumping Disney in with the filth of hollywood.

Plot twist: Disney is at the heart of the Hollywood filth

Probably, but you're definitely missing out if you skip Slotherhouse. Should be right up there with Thankskilling and Uncle Peckerhead. . . not sure they've reached the level of DinoCroc or Sharknado though.

 

[BigSteve09]

He had one bad play that had all the fans saying "This guy again...". But man in coverage he has been really solid.

At this point I'm not sure if Slaughter is still hurt, or if they are just rolling with Hadden and GJL.

Slaughter had like a dozen plays vs A&M but Hadden and GJL are solid

I guess that's what I was getting at. Really didn't know if he played. Thanks.

Why are we the only ones seeing that receivers are still getting open?...I will agree that it is not to the crazy level that they were last year, but I think that is more based on how defenses are playing us...I think they are getting away with grabbing and mauling our guys....yet there are still guys getting wide open regularly every game...Joe either messes up and throws the pass too late, or never sees them and throws to the wrong guy, or just outright throws a horrid pass...then the few times he has thrown really good passes on plays he did diagnose well...the recievers are dropping it or tge defender is getting away with mauling our guy...so to say "it's not all on Joe" is partially correct.

It is extremely frustrating to watch him after 3 years to still screw up soooo much.

Many do and they do too, they are just defending their QB since it’s the most criticized. I commend them but I’m. It much of a sugar coater.

Has anyone here ever tailgated in the Quad at Bama?

Is it basically a K Mart version of The Grove at Ole Miss?

Many times, it’s awesome. Best all around tailgating spot in the SEC, imo.

 

[vol_in_ga]

I feel like we really need to win at Bama to keep recruiting momentum building. Need to finish strong with this class and a lot of chatter about other teams already building 2025, which could be huepels banner class if we can finish this season with double digit wins.

see i agree with this. i'm not scared of them either. said it in another thread, but i know we CAN win this game. we're certainly capable of it. and that, in and of itself, is a big deal to me, when pretty much every year of the last 15 years, i just dropped an "L" next to this game....i don't feel that way anymore. this year, to me, it's simply about the match up...and for some reason i think i can live with that....

as for chances given...FL gave us chances, aTm gave us multiple chances to blow that game open...and we didn't take advantage.

i mean if there's ever a time to change the trend, it'd be a good place to start this weekend....but i don't trust our offense, one dimensional, and i don't trust us on the road yet.

defense keeps us in and makes us watch til the end....but i think we fall a bit short this weekend.

Good point, but remember, bammer will play harder in this game than any other they have thus far this season.
