What is really amazing about our game with Bama is:

From the mid-second quarter to the end, we beat their butts 35-17. Chew on that Paul Finebaum!

Yes, and we had two turnovers to zero for them and still

they couldn't beat us. Had they committed two turnovers to none for us, that would have been their excuse.

Exactly right. When you play as aggressively as our guys do on the defensive side, it's inevitable that you're gonna look silly on occasion. I think we'd all agree it's been worth it, though. A big play here or there, especially when it doesn't go all the way for 7, isn't nearly as demoralizing or exhausting for a defensive unit as being slowly and methodically driven backwards down the field.
Ohio State had a few big plays against us.. but they got literally nothing out of it. Bama's big plays at the end only gave DW4 enough time to come back and win it.

Very popular comment, they hit the edge a few times

Earlywith bo, one due to blatant holding, but that doesn't mean he does the same thing if he doesn't go out injured. Convenient excuse. If we'd had Mike Williams for even part of the game and keep out #1 corner in the game we probably win going away the previous year...

They scored 17 in 43 minutes with Bo in the game, during which we had 2 turnovers. They scored 14 in the last 17 without him. Sorry, can't use Bo's injury as an excuse.

well, i constantly hear that the only reason we won is because Bama didn't have a QB.... and that made me wonder.....
Are SEC defenses so bad or too stupid to stop a team without a QB from going undefeated in their conference?

Heard was an early mention as a frontrunner for The 2017 Heisman ...so they may be in between bases here.

I heard Jeff Scott say that Alabama should have

tackled all,our receivers on the final,play. They would have had interference called on them but we would have then had to,attempt a field goal to tie. Makes sense.

I thought he said that was their PLAN. Couldn't get to Renfrow until it was too late!

thats why there was no interference on the pick by 3, because the defender tackled him. Scott knew that was what they were going to do. Brilliant call.

Hate to admit it but I haven't looked at it that way. I love that! That's a nice stat to throw around when needed.

Bama moves methodically, gaining here and there, next thing you know it's late in the 3rd quarter/4th quarter, at that time they are up 14 or more points and have totally wore the other team down. That's just what they do to everybody. Oh wait....
