4, 5 or even 6 loss season would not look good for Saban, especially if he loses to Auburn.


LOL... do you really believe that Alabama is going to lose its next 4 games?

Alabama was picked by the national media to go either 7-5 or 8-4 this year.

If we lose to LSU and Auburn then we will finish exactly as it was predicted.

If we win either of those then we finish much better than expected.


Now on the other hand if we actually win both of those games then it will be a disaster for both LSU and AUBURN.

There is no pressure on Alabama to win this game other than the hype.. Sure we want the win. Sure we want a chance to win the West and go to Atlanta... But noone in the national media expected us to before this season started.

No, the pressure is all squarely on Nick Saban. Bama did not pay him $4 million a year to lose 4-5 games a year. Not even in his first year.

Just like in 06 when LSU was predicted to lose 2 games because of the tough road schedule, and when that happened those same people who made those predictions, for some reason, gave Miles shite for not winning it all.

Even if you do as predicted, some people will totally bash you. Oh wait nevermind, that's just Miles.

Don't give us that "No pressure on Bama" crap. Saban wants to go to the SECCG in his first year. He's closer than he ever thought he would be. Theres plenty pressure on those players to Win for Saban, themselves and the fans.

A Shula coached team would have had the same expectaions by the media, but the fan base expected much more from Saban--reality is starting to raise its ugly head.

8 wins? That sucks for a $4million dollar coach.

I call BS here.

Of course this is pressure to win at Bama, especially the last 3 ballgames of the year.

The Bama slide is famous and Saban is the 4 million dollar band-aid to stop the slide. If he can't do it this year with all the momentum...

Next year more talent will be on the field, but you lose your experience QB. See LSU this year for details.
