But that was during Saban's first season at Alabama. He was rebuilding. They haven't had a bad loss like that since then.

You can't get worse than that performance by AJ against Arkansas.

I'm still baffled by the supposed "complexity" of our offense. I just don't get it. We run like 10 plays. (I know this is an exaggeration, but it's pretty vanilla nonetheless)

They beat a ranked Arkansas team that year. Forgive me for thinking they had more talent than ULM

I think the second string kicker could have made better throws; nothing personal about Jennings but he doesn't have it.

You are fighting an impossible battle if you want to compare Nick Saban's Alabama teams to Les Miles' LSU teams. Please don't bring them into this discussion.

I'll take a loss to ULM in 2007 in exchange for 3 National Titles, 2 other BCS bowls, an apparent seat in the first college football 4 team playoff.

What deference does it make , we don't have a QB now. Even the Taliban know we can't throw the ball!!! Also poor coaching on both sides of the ball.

No one in their right mind was claiming that Bama was "elite" at that point in time.

Pretty sure Little Nicky has made up for that loss.



Also, Saban had not been the coach at Bama for 10 fricking years when that happened.




I really don't see how anyone can defend that abortion in Fayetteville this past weekend.

I'm not defending anything. We don't currently have a good qb on our team. We were going to live and die by the run this year. Arkansas had a lot more to play for than we did, were pumped up, and were at home. They stopped our rushing attack. shite happens. Move on with your life

Well ... we do have more than one. No reason not to let Harris sling it.

shite ... throw some bombs, we might've gotten lucky. It's not like our WR's suck.

I remember.....they didn't quit though like Miles did in the Arky game. There's a big difference.

So if we start Harris against ATM and he stinks it up, what will the rant bitch about then?

Miles sucks at evaluating/developing QBs

which would be a valid critique if Harris does suck

I won't ... because personally, I don't think that either one of them are very good.


But, I would feel better if we used a little creativity on offense and looked like we are at least TRYING to score some points.

What's the difference between Harris stinking it up and Jennings stinking it up?

May as well try it out.

I'm assuming you're basing your opinion of Harris on his one start at Auburn. Do you normally judge a player based on one performance?

Thank you. If we are going to judge Harris based on his performance against Auburn, then why can't we do the same with Jennings based on his performance last week? Sad part is, Jennings has had an entire season plus a bowl game plus the final two minutes of a game last season to improve, and he looked like that.

I'd like to have seen what Harris would look like with all all that experience.
