The OFFICIAL ROSE BOWL THREAD: The #1 MICHIGAN WOLVERINES vs. the #4 ALABAMA CRIMSON TIDE - 1/1/24

[Trust Me]

If Lane Kiffin or Sark was the oc at Bama, this game wouldn't be close. Be thankful Saban hired who he did. Cuz this is the fastest team Michigan has faced by far. The talent on Bamas offense is under utilized. Coaching is the only reason Michigan will have a chance

That Georgia Game shoulda been a 14pt win, but Tommy Rees is what he is

It took this long for me to agree with you on something.. but I agree that the win should've been bigger. But I think you're sleeping on Michigan's speed on defense. The LB's go sideline to sideline quick as hell. Our secondary is damn near elite. And our pass rush can cause problems.

And ya'll probably are the fastest team we've faced all year.. but even if that's the case.. ya'll aint that much faster than OSU.

Osu and PSU offenses were overrated but still better than yours. Burton is another Lambert Smith. Same WR, same result

No they weren’t.

What’s more relevant, last years game against TCU or you struggling with Payton Thorne? Texas and Georgia erased Bama on the ground, what do you think a better and tougher team than both gonna do?

Auburn was 21st in the nation in rushing yards per game.

Michigan is 56th

Are you dumb?

I just watched full game highlights on YT, and I'm not sure wtf Georgia was doin that game. They were out of position so many times. That's not like UGA. Also, Milroe's legs scare me, but his arm doesn't. And he stayed in the pocket a hell of a long time and paid for it a few times.

There was nothing that Georgia did wrong, Alabama was just the better team.

All year, nobody was able to get pressure on Carson Beck, I said that was a major factor if we wanted to win the game, Beck was pressured Saturday and *should’ve* thrown 4 picks.

Georgia did a good job defensively taking away the deep ball and Rees adjusted, also the running game was a factor.

The SEC only has 1 team in the top 20 opponent rushing yards per game.

Michigan played 5.

Ohio and PSU have elite backs and offensive lines so miss me with the "their offenses isnt good" argument.

 

[CrimsonTider]

Alabama played the #1, #8, #9, #19 offenses this year

The best Offense Michigan played was UNLV at #24

The pass offense Michigan played was Maryland at #22

Anyone claiming Michigan has a better defense than Bama hasn’t been watching football this year

Im talking purely on the outside. The wr with the most potential is probably a freshman Jalen Hale. He is not on the field nearly enough. Bond and Burton. Then Amari NiBlack is a matchup nightmare.

Georgia tried to run too much. Bama can stop the run if they focus on it. U gash them when the passing game becomes a concern. They're DBs have a tendency to play like dummies. Way too many blown coverages.

Of the teams remaining Bama and Texas has a level of speed and physicality OSU just doesn't have. Vs Georgia, Milroe basically won mvp for closing the game out. He played like shyt. If he gets involved in the run game early, its going to be exciting to watch. If he's on his pocket passer shyt, gonna be a long day. For Bama

And we were the only team that could limit Bowers.

 

[papa pimp]

Michigan has faced #2, #3, #4 & #8 ranked defenses according to SP+
Maryland at #20 and Rutger at #22

Now do the same exercise with Bama.

You might be right. I haven't watched too much SEC this year.

I did see the pressure ya'll caused.. and I agree.

I couldn't really tell from the highlights, but it makes sense that ya'll took the deep ball away. Cause I cant remember many shots that UGA took in the game.

nikka what last year I would have agreed but this year?nah.

OSU and PSU don’t have good offenses

Only good offense Michigan played wad UNLV and the only good passing game was Maryland

None of these teams have elite offensive units

No they weren’t.

Michigan is 56th

Are you dumb?

Using 'yards per game' as a metric for college football makes you simple as fukk. Auburn is Rutgers that plays in the south.

Their offenses are better than yours, not saying they're elite. Follow along better

Bama would (will) pay millions to have a RB as good as Singleton and Henderson, and we made both disappear
