Forgot about that. Sucks


Michigan St had 4 of the top 25 games on they list the Iowa game was also high but was a FOX game so not shown. Damn shame they had all them close games only to stink out the joint in the playoff that was the most telegraphed big game dud I can ever remember complete mismatch.

Ga Tech came into that game 2-5 :what:


They beat Alcorn St and Tulane then lost 5 in a row after getting in the top 10 of rankings they beat us then lost final 4 haha the worst loss of CFB season FSU was just awful in this game. GT pretty much hit 2 big plays on offense (broken Ramsey tackle for TD and James getting beat on 4th and 5 late) then the blocked FG shyt was frustrating to watch coming out the clinic Golson played like shyt OL kept getting stupid penalties just sorry loss

Practice report from fan day

This was the one practice during fall camp that's open to the media.

It was Fan Day inside Bryant-Denny Stadium Sunday, and fans and the media were able to watch Alabama go through its fourth practice of fall camp.

Here is a rundown of what happened:

— My opinion on the quarterbacks: Jalen Hurts had the best day. Blake Barnett had the second-best day. Cooper Bateman was third. Hurts is a legitimate contender to win the starting quarterback job.

— Blake Barnett with probably the best throw of the day. Rolling left, he threw a touchdown of around 40 yards in the corner of the the end zone to Trevon Diggs. Went right over the outstretched hand of Tony Brown. Perfectly placed ball.

— Freshman running back B.J. Emmons is a physical runner. Has been lowering his shoulder and initiating a lot of contact in light contact drills.

— A couple nice balls from Cooper Bateman — a nicely placed fade route to Gehrig Dieter and then a deep completion of around 30 yards to O.J. Howard on a corner route. Bateman then threw a long touchdown pass to a wide open Irvin Smith. It was a blown coverage.

— Keith Holcombe intercepts Jalen Hurts on a short pass over the middle.

— Deep touchdown pass down the middle from Jalen Hurts to Calvin Ridley. Beat freshman cornerback Jared Mayden.

— Cooper Bateman has struggled some today. Just threw a pass into double coverage that was almost intercepted.

— Two nice throws from Jalen Hurts in 11-on-11. On the first, safety Deionte Thompson had tight coverage, wide receiver T.J. Simmons over the middle, but Hurts fit the ball into a tight space. Hurts then had a nice pass of around 20 yards to Robert Foster along the sideline.

— The first-team kick returners are Calvin Ridley and ArDarius Stewart. The second-team kick returners are Xavian Marks and Damien Harris.

— Two nice catches just now in 7-on-7. Robert Foster had a contested catch deep down the sideline. Trevon Diggs then made a contested catch across the middle.

— The first-team secondary during a 7-on-7 passing drill is Marlon Humphrey and Anthony Averett at cornerback, Minkah Fitzpatrick at nickel back and Ronnie Harrison and Eddie Jackson at safety.

— The second-team defensive backs: Anthony Averett and Kendall Sheffield at cornerback and Deionte Thompson and Hootie Jones at safety.

— Blake Barnett and Jalen Hurts look the best of the quarterbacks thus far.

— Quarterback David Cornwell, who is dealing with a foot injury, is working off to the side as the other quarterbacks go through drills that require movement.

— Wide receiver Xavian Marks looked quick and elusive in one-on-one and one-on-two ball-carrier drills.

— Blake Barnett looked good and comfortable in an early 7-on-7. All of them were short-to-intermediate throws, but he was 5 of 5 or 6 of 6 during that session.

— A couple off-target throws from Cooper Bateman in 7-on-7. A deep comeback bounced at the feet of the intended receiver. A short throw over the middle was then low and off-target.

— Tony Brown is at free safety.

— Rashaan Evans is the inside linebacker next to Reuben Foster in nickel.

— The first-team offensive line early in practice is Cam Robinson at left tackle, Lester Cotton at left guard, Ross Pierschbacher at center, Bradley Bozeman at right guard and Jonah Williams at right tackle.

Excited to see where Xavian Marks will fit when the season starts, could be a secret weapon for our offense. I think Hurts and Barnett will eventually separate themselves, if they haven't already. I really want Tony Brown to ball out this year, it's time. All in all very excited going into the season.

Yeah they butchered the matchups rather seen OU/Bama and MSU/Clemson those were pretty much rematches of 2 of the worst blowouts this decade in bowls. They gave Bama a cherry pick matchup as far as style goes I wanted to see Bama vs the OU air raid offense

Honestly, we know Dobbs is talented, we're giving him hell because you-know-who is shoving Tennessee down our throats ruining this thread.

That because you guys are stans. You get ya pannies up in a wad if your favorite team isn't getting hyped.

I'm just telling y'all what's gonna happen. I've already made it clear I have no allegiance to Tennessee as a program. I'm only high on this current roster of players.

I'd be doing the same thing if there was another team I felt this good about.
