You sure are quick to defending them while nit picking the hell out of lsu.

You watched bama at all this year? They definitely aren't anything close to a well oiled machine. Lots of miscommunication. Lot of blown coverage on defense.

their pass defense is in shambles and their STs have shite the bed. they have no kicker and fumbled away the ole miss game

i just posted stats b/c that statement seems retarded in light of actual statistical data

ole miss has the offense that has the higher chance to fall off the rails, imho. #ChadfrickinKelly

You and I could have the GOAT hated LSU podcast if we focused our efforts.

Coker and Bateman both throw horrible deep balls. I think that's going to hurt that offense a lot.

to go along with 6 interceptions, 3 lost fumbles and 3-7 in field goals, they'll have to clean that up to have any shot at LSU

FGs are special teams

and are 2 of those 3 fumbles also on special teams?

Why doesn't Saban get more criticism for his long history of horrendous special teams? Seems the goat coach would find some way to correct this, no?

The more trophies you have the more mistakes you can make.

True, but field goals are a possible conclusion to an offensive possession, their effectiveness, therefore, must be considered when looking at their overall potency of the offense.

Saban and Kiffin are facing criticism right now. Saban had to get on the fans for booing the team.

well he won a title in 09, had a mediocre year, then won 2 in a row and was one of the flukiest of fluke Auburn-luck bullshite plays from making a 3rd title game in a row. then his team made the playoffs last year in what was supposed to be a rebuilding year.

and the year before his first natty, he had his team in the SEC title game

when you have that kind of record, little issues don't become as big of a deal. if les could build similar teams, his issues wouldn't be magnified. the difference is that les's issues lead to his lack of success (compared to Saban, mindfully), so they are magnified (and for good reason)

i look at them as special teams, like with basically everyone else, and i already said their STs were horrible

Trust me, Alabama has their share of fans criticizing the staff right now. You have to look at their quarterback recruiting as well. They have 5 on the roster right now that were all rated fairly to very high and aren't really happy with any of them. In addition, they've had guys leave that are playing elsewhere.

do too. I like the team's chances in every game. We do need to get the passing game more in sync though because Bama's secondary can be picked on & we have the receivers to give them headaches. There needs to be a continuous improvement over the next few games but I like the approach of spoon feeding Harris instead of shoving a bunch of passing plays down his throat early on.
