I hate to say it but alabama has always been the top football program in the SEC.

Complete horse shite. Bama sucked for many years in the 90’s and 2000’s pre Saban.

It's a trap. They're going to try and lure you to Krystal's.

Bryant was far from one of the greatest coaches of all time; he was one of the greatest cheaters of all time.

Maybe they'll hire Mike Price again to keep things "rolling" :)

100%. Most don’t remember or deny the years between stallings and Saban.

It's just funny how quickly fans will turn on their team when the going gets tough.


Damn, baw you must not read the scoreboard during the games on here, our “fans” are turning on the team with 1-2 minutes of kickoff each week.

They have CLAIMED a pile of NCs since the 20s, a good number of which are fake news.

He’s gotten a lot more polished as a passer, but hurts was essentially a rb at Alabama and did both I believe

Had the same conversation with some auburn buddies. When you see the perspective of an auburn fan, we essentially have Warren moon compared to their situation.


Warren Moon? You pulled that one out of your arse. How does a Warren Moon reference fit here?

You put Daniels down, but name another team in the SEC that has a better performing QB. We're lucky to have Daniels because life without him would not be nearly as successful. Not many QBs in the country can throw and run at the level that Daniels does. Ask every HC in the SEC, which the exception of maybe Georgia, and they would all take Daniels over their current QB.


Running maybe. Passing there are QBs that are more consistent and just better throwing the ball. Daniels running should always force teams to focus on it and leave more open space in secondary, but he still struggles getting comfortable and taking advantage of it early.

But if you just look at stats JD is just 6 yards and 1 TD pass ahead of Swann


Rattler isn’t far behind, and Cook is very close in passing rating. Dart isn’t as far behind as one would think after watching him this year.

I don’t think Georgia, Arkansas, or South Carolina would trade. A&M, Bama, Ole Miss, or Missouri would be doubtful (not sure how much at State is adapting to new new offense or QB only fitting Air Raid). Though Some solely based on offense being run, and some based on personality of coach. It’s a transition or development year for a lot of SEC with QBs. It’s also early in that kind of year.

Outside of SEC - Washington, USC, Oregon, Washington State, NC, ND, FSU, Miami, Colorado, Michigan, or the 2 future members of the SEC would not trade as well.

This early plenty of other QBs looking good to date with stats. Looking at stats I had to double check on who J Plummer’s dad is, who the other J Daniels is & then who the 3rd J Daniels is, and even Pratt is leading in passing rating after missing 2 games due to injury & probably had a better season last year than JD. Former SEC QB Hunter King at GT is just 1 TD pass behind. It’s early and much can change with them or others lower down in some of the stats moving up like Duke’s QB who is lower than expected in yards and TDs right now.

JD is really good, but it’s foolish to think the number of teams having better or equal QBs is as limited as some here push. I would hand the keys to several QBs over any QB we currently have on the roster. Would want a new OC at the same time.

Exactly! After Saban retires it could be back to the Music City for Alabama.

Coach Gene Stallings in 1992 too right?

Nick Saban has made bama football the most significant industry in the state of Alabama. He definitely was the right guy at the right time, AND times they are a’changin’…

I forgot about Hurts, but the reality was he was basically run off because they wanted a more pure passer. It's funny now that he's successful in the NFL they want to claim him, but they forget they benched him and showed him the door!
