Hear Ye, All You Doubters,
Bama is slipping. This season, they had to dredge the bottom of the well to get a sip of adrenalin to pull off wins. That well is nearly running dry despite last night's victory. A bad, and I mean bad Florida team made them wet their pants. Ole Mississippi lost primarily due to the Kif's stubborn gambling on 4th down. He forgot the basic rule of gambling. The longer you hang around the gaming table, the more likely the house wins all the money you put on the table. Texas A&M won despite the officiating efforts at rescuing the red algae bloom. A Florida-level bad LSU team had Bam-Bam looking for Charmin Ultra Strong but having to do with Angel Soft instead. Auburn does often play the crimson creeps tough, but probably used the rope-a-dope tactic once too often that time around. Bama is slipping, Saban knows it. Don't be surprised that, should his boys win the NCS this time around, he calls it quits. Go out in a blaze of glory while the going is good. He might hang around one more season, depends on what the team looks like once he sees who leaves for the pros, who transfers, and what's coming in. I dare say, how Tennessee fares in these areas will be a factor too. He knows Tebow was right when he said that Tennessee is a sleeping giant. We made him sweat for a while with an utterly depleted defense. Like King Belshazzar, Saban sees the writing on the wall.
