I think Saban knows that the Tigers are every bit as good as his team and I concure. This is a game with the potential of being one of the best ever. It will be a battle to the end where all energy is spent. My gut says this is the Tiger's year (I've felt like this since TL became our qb). Go Tigers! ??

I’m so glad the coaches made that QB change. I think Trevor can handle this

I have a feeling that we have a much better chance of beating Bama this year than I had last year. And the biggest reasons are that we will have a much better chance of using our best skill players with TL as our throwing QB than we had with using KB's legs last year. But I would have a better feeling if TL would have been our stater from day one.
Just think of the experience and knowledge of our system that TL would have gotten from about the middle of fall camp through those 1st 4 games that he could have put to use early on into the season that would have been a huge help now bc of the extra time and snaps he would have had to helped him grow more through out the season, and that would have been a big plus for him and our team even more right now!!!

Not quite a complete team. We still need a punter which could be a huge factor in this game.

That's a must to have in any game. Most scores against us this season has come from our opponents having a short field when ever we had to punt the ball!!!

That's an understatement. Our punting has been downright bad.

And Dabo said thanks, but no thanks. Dabo has a good memory of them cutting him loose when after they hired I think it was by Franchione when he was hire as the Bama HC!!!

No respect from me. He's an a$$hole. Did you watch him berate Tua coming off the field in the first quarter even when they had a 28 point lead? The man wins game but is an a$$hole in the process.

Meh. He's dear to the hearts of Bama fans because he reflects the personality of previous coaches loved by the fans (not just the winning). Coach Gene Stallings (Dabos father figure) and Coach Paul Bryant were hard nosed, no nonsense guys.
There's a time and a place for chewing vs loving. The first interception Tua threw at the NC last year was a conversation on the sideline. This year, different expectations, especially on avoidable mistakes.

FOR THE RECORD and one more time...

Dabo was on Finebaum and discussed the disrespect Bama had shown him for nearly a decade before Tommy hired him at Clemson.
Saban called Dabo a week before signing day. That's Dabo's words. CJ was our top recruit that year, those are my words. Dabo rejected Saban's offer without revealing the details.
You guys took elementary arithmetic, do the math.
I have the interview on my hdd and will post it if someone will tell me how to post a Dabo 15 minute speech on how Bama screwed him time after time without lube and why he'd never consider coaching for Alabama. Oh, I'll need a hundred bucks for my time finding it among all the horse manure on my hdd.

He was offered the passing game coordinator position when Saban first went to Bama.

What is real out of all the comments that Nick said about Dabo, is that he and Dabo are good friends, and that is good enough for me when judging Nick Saban and his personal character.

I'm sure Saban says that. All I know is I have a friend that works where Dabo and his family spend time in the summer and everyone there loves them. Saban used to spend part of the summer at the same place and everyone hated him. Two totally different people! Dabo a God fearing, thoughtful person and Saban would target his mother for a win. Anything good Saban is saying is "Rat Poison" in his own words.

Exactly. I personally would be skeptical of anything Saban says. Known many people like him in my lifetime. Take it in, nod and move on, then forget it

Your school got rid of Dabo during the Mike DuBose fiasco. Bowden got him in 2003 from an Insurance Co. While you were pouting from Franchione leaving you and a Coach who wantedtofuckhookers is whom you hired instead of Dabo.

You must not have watched our games this year. Our kickers = the hottest garbage. JK Scott, the kid we had the last few years who kicked the ball swooned the world, has gone to the NFL. We are averaging the shortest punts in at least 5 years this year.
