Bama sucks?

[temptn]

Maybe? They have 15 players opting out or going to the NFL and Michigan has about 24. So the post season games are no indication of whether a team is good or not.

True but Alabama tends to be giving off the vibes that they are a sinking ship now.

Our marquee win not looking good against OSU's bad loss.

We were not good and Alabama was not good. Even Georgia is suspect. SEC is trash this year.

Who cares at this point. It’s a bowl game where lot of players sat on both sides.

Yeah and our season is basically over. I haven't watched much CFB since our loss. More interested in Basketball now.

Looking better at halftime.

Why does this question even need to be asked?

Hopefully a bad loss and some of their talent transfers.

 

[fossilfiction]

They looked rough turning it over early but they likely drum Michigan in the second half, then again it's not Saban's Bama anymore, so...

It just shows how hard it is comparing teams from different conferences during the regular season. Two weeks ago, everyone was laughing at OSU's "bad loss" to Michigan. Bama will probably come back and win but they don't seem to outclass Michigan or anything, despite having a better record.

If Michigan holds on, it would be the first time since since 2007 that Alabama didn’t reach 10 wins.. would love to see it

Win or lose... bama still sucks
No question. Just the facts Ma'm

 

[Voltopia]

I don't think this bowl says anything about either team's regular season. And I'm gonna go out on a short limb and guess that most of Alabama's highly vaunted five star roster didn't sign to play for Nick Saban and championships thinking they'd end up being coached by a staff they aren't sure about in the Reliaquest Bowl. That first quarter looked like the college football equivalent of "oh come on, do we really have to?"

Doesn't excuse or justify losing, either. Alabama losing makes my day. But Michigan had all the motivation in this game, coming in to beat "big bad Alabama" after upsetting Ohio State. Alabama's got nothing to play for. Their pride finally kicked in after that first quarter. It may be enough to get them through the game. Maybe not. We'll know in a few hours.

Bama does suck

Even when they are actually good on the field and winning national titles, they suck.

 

[temptn]

I think that Bama has found themselves a keeper coach

Talk dirty to me

I hope all the Finebaum disciples who have been saying Bama deserved to go to the playoffs over Tennessee are men enough to admit they are fools.

 

[volbound1700]

Bama may comeback and win this game

 

[Majors]

Pet peeve of mine is what Bama just did. Inside the 15 and ran 3 plays to the endzone with over a minute left and 2 TO.

Glad Bama lost.

Agree completely. The Gumps have every reason to be angry. Bama coaching is suspect. This is not Saban’s team.

 

[GreveHaller]

Someone please copy some of the meltdown on the bama boards

Glad Bama lost.

And they still had another possible set of downs to work with once inside the 5. SMH.

Finebaum is on right now, I think they have paused for a moment of silence.
