I agree. Apparently Saban learned something from consecutive losses to Miles.

Maybe, maybe not. But if they didn't ask for JJ to be benched then they are as gutless as their head coach, you know, the one who quit on them.




Well, LSU made Saban, McCarron, Richardson, Jones, etc quit in Tuscaloosa this year so I guess now we are even.

Not fantasy land since neither you nor I know what goes on behind closed doors.

It's called opinion and you throw yours around w/o knowing every fact of every situation.

But I do know one fact...Saban made Miles quit.

Actually it's speculation. No one knows or will know.

This is an opinion.

My concern is that Les Miles is becoming the Charlie McClendon of old and Saban is becoming Bear Bryant. If you are not familiar, McClendon struggled to beat Bryant.

Just so I don't lose count, how many more time are you going to post this.

It's almost as silly as maybe....maybe....maybe.

Actually it's called hope. I hope the players did go to Miles to bench JJ. If not, oh well.

Miles quitting is not an opinion. The play-calling in the 4th proves he quit.

Dump the facts. This is a fantasy and opinion board.

I was also at the Peach Bowl sitting in the endzone when Davey came running out of the tunnel at half. The student section went absolutely nuts. It didn't hurt having Tommy Banks scoring a TD and 2 pt conversion that half either!!

The crowd went nuts and the team responded brilliantly to the change at the helm.

I also kept screaming this all during halftime last week and all of the third quarter. Stevie Wonder could see that we needed a change and that if there were no change we had no shot. JL may not have brought us back, but you shoot every fricking bullet you have in THE last game of the season. There is no excuse why there were zero changes. No trick plays, no nothing. No excuse and the only person that can change that will never change.

I am concerned that as long as Saban remains at Alabama (it looks like he will be there for a long time), future victories may hard to get. It doesn't take much effort to notice the difference in the rankings of this year's recruiting class. Saban came in and stole 2 of the best from Louisiana under the nose of LSU. After all recruiting is the life blood of college athletics.

Uhhhh. I didn't try to make anything fact. I "hoped" and NEVER passed it as fact.

Not very grown up of you and hypocritical. Too easy.

He had a bad game plan, didn't make the adjustments and in hindsight he would've done it differently. He admitted this today.

Some of you "haters" just love to hate the guy.
It seems only negative comment has value. Really pretty sorry. We should have/ shouldn't have lost the game... Go over the season which took us there, whatever the end point, it'll be some time before ANY school equals that.

And what a starting point for next season.... That mentality seems painfully scarce.

What fun lives some of you must lead.

Correct. It took the home loss to Ole Miss to make him realize we needed to play pitch and catch.

"Maybe some of the players begged Miles to replace JJ"
So "maybe" means "hope"?

Ok

Actually using maybe is trying to pass specuation off as a possibility. It has nothing to do with hope or wish. Neither of which is very convincing.

Now back to the "make him quit" thingy. Do you pout when you write that?

Come on man. Find something better to light your little flame with.

What would you call trying impossible field goals over and over in the game if the century because you're too afraid to go for it and too stubborn to punt? Saban QUIT in November and Miles pushed him to it.

No doubt Bama and Saban quit in November in OT!
