We haven't, but we've got the QB in place along with the other pieces now.

For the first time in years I see a team capable of downing these frickers.


Well, the fact that we are willing to throw on first down and throw often presents a new scenario that we haven't given Bama yet. So there is hope.

They were in the stands. Somebody went and got them when he was in the tent.

I mean Tua is obviously one of the best but I think Hurts gets a little bit unfairly shite on because of how good Tua is...

Even if Tua is out, that leaves Bama with a 2 year starter who's had success in the SEC. Hurts beat us twice. You can argue we lost to Bama's defense but it was Hurts legs that extended drives and led them to scoring drives in close games. In 16, it was that rushing TD he scored to put it away and last year it was that play where he spun out of a sack and big loss and rushed for a 1st down.

ETA: just looked up that play last year to be sure. 2nd and 6, Hurts avoids two free rushers which would have been a 13 yard loss and made it 3rd and 19. Hurts picks up the first down with his legs, next play is a 47 yard pass, 2 plays later Bama scores a TD. We lose by 14.

It doesn’t matter if we beat Bama with or without Tua, they’ll be in the top 4 when the playoffs start

People that say they were any them at full strength are complete morons.

In addition to us winning out, we need a couple of these things to happen;

- One of Oklahoma or Texas to win out

- Ohio St to win the conference with no more than one loss

- Clemson to remain undefeated

- Oregon to win out

- Notre Dame to win out

LSU at 12-1 with wins over Bama, UGA, and either UGAx2 or revenge vs UF, is automatically in because there won't be four undeafeated power 5 teams remaining.

In that case, O should be fired for not having the Fehoka family on the sidelines each and every game.

Tua did NOT have a scope on a Sunday. They are not dragging him to an OR staffed by a weekend crew with unfamiliar equipment. They will scope him, if needed, in a cushy plush well staffed and well equipped outpatient sports medicine facility.

Ready made excuse for them to sit out the SECCG and rest until their do-over. We’ve all seen that movie

It’s a knee scope, not open heart surgery. Can definitely be done on the weekend.

Plus if necessary, the facility can call in their “A-team” to do Tua’s knee scope.

It’s a win win for me. We owe Jalen Hurts anyway.

Missouri slowed Tua. I want them at full strength when we punch them in the fricking mouth.

12-22 for 275 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTs in less than 3 quarters is getting "slowed down"?

you think Alabama sends their players to random doctors at random facilities? Good lord, man, that's not how it works.

Good point. We all know injuries are an important part of the game.

Tua may not play, but we know Chaisson is out for sure.

Just beat Bama, period.

We still need to get through Miss St without more injuries on our side. Doesn’t matter who they play if we can’t play our best.

I guarantee you the Andrews Institute in Gulf Breeze was not open today for an elective knee scope.
