Here Was Jim Harbaugh & Nick Saban's Reaction To Michigan Playing Alabama In Citrus Bowl

Like him or not, Saban has shown repeatedly throughout his career that he is capable of good coaching and motivating his teams most of the time. Michigan is going to get curb stomped IMO.

Lost those games by a combined 8 points. With an injured QB in the first, and a 2nd stringer in the 2nd.

Choad spin it anyway you want to. Why you gumps bring up a qb injury when you're gump coach allowed him to play aight, and the gump qb said he could play. Crying injured qb eexcuse just doesn't line up with his performance in the game, he couldn't have played any better than he did at home in that game, bottom line they got an 8 year arse whipping. Then a toothless offensive Auburn team embarrased them for good measure. Geaux Blue

I'm truly looking forward to Saban being asked questions about players sitting out of the bowl game.

You know, I’ve been thinking that maybe Alabama’s defense this season isn’t really much worse than usual. Maybe the offenses have changed and the defense needs to adapt. It’s a great defense against Les but not against O.

Bama's defense was young. It's a good but not great defense this year. Let's pump the brakes a bit on the bama bashing, LSU fans, you needed a record setting offense to win by 5. Calm down some.

I can't imagine that the trio of WRs coming out or the 2 Olinemen coming out will play. I'd assume it'll be mainly the younger kids and/or kids that have stock to improve in the draft.

History says said teams destroyed Michigan State after the 2010 season and lost to Oklahoma in 2013. But when have Le Slagpit U fans ever let facts get in the way of a good shitpost?

Josey, I've got you by a little over a decade. I was in "Ears" office just a couple of months before he was fired. This decade of difference means I have seen as bad or worse at Bama. It wasn't pretty then, and you're right, It ain't pretty now.

No buddy, in 2010 we had a veteran team loaded with talent that is still elite in the NFL to this day. Harbaugh desperately needs a win against a blue blood team to alleviate the angst amongst the Michigan faithful. I’m certainly not expecting a big Bama win and with a gun to my head I’d have to take Michigan. The Bama history of bowl games following an Iron Bowl loss and disappointing season is abysmal.

And Michigan will still get blown out
