Want to be a program like Bama? START ACTING LIKE IT!

I know I'm going to get downvotes galore but somebody has to say it. Look - I'm as upset as anyone about the Devin White targeting call. Total BS and he should be on the field. But come on now - it's over. It's done. The mass hysteria I am seeing from our fanbase since the game is unbelievable - and it's getting worse.

Let's show up and be loud, proud, and WHITE OUT Tiger stadium but it's time to stop playing the victim

You know who doesn't lose their shite after losing their starting linebacker for a half? Programs like Bama.

Saban has lost player after player to the NFL, multiple coaches have moved on and yet he keeps winning. No freak outs when players or coaches move on. We start to freak out at even the notion of losing a coach like Aranda. The way some of our fans are acting about the DW situation is only highlighting and cementing our insecurity and "little brother" syndrome on the national stage.

I hope the players aren't buying into this BS - it's next man up for them. What if DW was injured? Would the outcome be any different?

We want to be considered in Bama's league? Starts with acting like it.

That being said, I hope we keep it close in the 1st half, and DW comes into the second half like a boss and gives the team a Willis Reed-like boost that propels the Tigers to VICTORY! That would be the PERFECT ending to this story.
