Alabama Apologists’ Poor Sportsmanship is Shameful


Feb 12, 2019, 8:07 AM

Even though it’s not uncommon for fans to complain about poor officiating in a game, it still seems desperate to be looking for a reason to explain away a loss.

What Bama coaches, players, and fans are doing (throwing shade on Clemson) to try to minimize the impact of the game is just plain POOR SPORTSMANSHIP!!!

It’s sad to see a once proud football program resort to juvenile excuses.

Bamaist aren't happy giving up the title 'GOAT.'

It's a long way to fall from GOAT to 44-16.

Vocal minorities of every fanbase make excuses


Feb 12, 2019, 8:34 AM

There was a vocal bunch here that had a pant load of excuses after losing to Bama January 11, 2016.

Perhaps, but we didn't lose by 4 touchdowns in January of 2016.

Clemson wasn't declared the GOAT that year either.***

And nor will we likely be -- because ROSTER


Feb 12, 2019, 9:55 AM

This is the prevalent argument I've seen from the Bamerites lately, that they had a far better roster and that the most recent recruitment cycle only enhanced their superiority to our Tigers.

Too bad 'rosters' don't play games, teams do and CDS is still right, we had the better team. 28 points are the undeniable proof of that.

Here's to OUR team and for continuing to be the best in the land.

PS - we seemed to hold the Alabama fans and program in such high regard over the last 3+ years. When we won in 2016, they lost with class, giving us credit for a good game, won in the last second on an amazing drive. But what we realize is that it was only that they could rationalize what happened then and that the 28 point beat-down refuses to be rationalized. The result is that their players, coaches (Alabama factor?) and fans are reduced to what more or less every other wannabe program is when it doesn't go their way. Too bad. Thought they had more class than that.

“Clemson wasn’t that much better with Trevor Lawrence, if at all.”

Yes Virginia, there really is a Bamacoot.

Well, #1 the 2017 game was written off by Bama as a "lucky fluke". Behind the scenes they told everyone that Clemson was lucky and that we were a one hit wonder. #2 the 2018 game was "proof" we had been lucky. #3 we've proven them to be just plain silly. They want to talk about how they had better talent based on rankings of guys coming out of high school. Seriously, are we going to hear about how when these guys were in the 2nd grade they won the spelling bee therefore they are superior to our guys. Bama has underdeveloped talent which means their guys are as good as our guys.

What I heard from the few banners I talked to was that we won by running a pick play. Maybe you heard that we were lucky when we weren't called for it. Ether one is wrong and sour grapes.

And yet, when Alabama beat us 24-6 last year in the playoffs after not playing in the SECCG, they destroyed us. Sheesh!
