Bama beats the John Deere Tractor Dealerships tonight…37-28.
I think Saban got a good hard look at the kind of players that are at ‘Bama over the last 3 weeks…and that look was not good. Can’t finish. Can’t finish games, can’t finish teams, can’t finish season.

I’m glad that LSU finally lost a game they should have lost instead of consistently pulling wins out of disaster. I’m even glad that McFadden had an awesome game on national television. I’m happy as a lark that once again the BCS is going to be a complete disaster this year.
I’m even okay that West Virginia has a chance to play in the championship game.
What is baffling to me is Houston Nutt. After he correctly assesses after the game that Darren McFadden is the best player in the land, you almost wanted to ask him - then why in the world did he fall off the radar screen in the middle of the season? How - as a coaching staff - did you not utilize 2 of the most dynamic backs in college football to something better than a 7-4 record?

Kansas-Missouri game today. Rock Chalk Jayhawks. Never thought I say that during football season. But Reesing is the real deal. The special teams are special. Besides that…I can’t stand Mizzou. Why? I really don’t have a good reason. Ever have some teams that you just don’t like? Mizzou is one of those teams. Now - they are definitely not at the same level as say Auburn, Notre Dame, or USC. A mild annoyance is more accurate.

Off to get out Christmas decorations.

Arkansas definitely deserved the win last night and D Mac is finally getting some national attention, the only problem with our big win is that Nutt might have and probably just saved his job.

Sorry dude. I am for you, just not for Bama. What are Tide fans thinking about Saban right now? I wonder what the administration is thinking?
I am jealous you got to go skiing. I want to go so bad.

Clay, I’m not upset with Saban… I am upset with a group of players who lack focus and discipline and won’t make plays. I hope that Saban can recruit a freaking quarterback because JPW needs to find the bench and stay there.
I hope he has a good day job lined up.

yeah, i know, i just like poking fun. but seriously, jpw needs to start having these bad games against arkansas. i guess he decides to have all his career games against us.
but as far as football goes, this was not a good alabama team. ( i watched the film, i saw how bad your defense got destroyed by our offense) they played over their heads early in the season, and their lack of depth showed at the end. their is still no excuse for losing to ulm, though.

I too was glad the LSU got beat this weekend and am at a loss for Nutt’s brain-dead coaching at points during the year, but neither of those thoughts can beat the fact that Bama is terrible! WAR EAGLE! =)

No argument on the point of the condition of Alabama football.
To start off 6-2 then mail in the rest of the season is ridiculous.
What’s going to create more heat is when Alabama is selected for a bowl over South Carolina.
I’m a firm believer that if you finished .500 or worse - you can stay home for the holidays but the fact remains that the Bowl business is exactly that - a business.
And everybody knows how well Alabama fans travel.
One more chance for the Tide to roll over and die.
