You mean the guy who spent a season at Bama? Interesting…

Our D isn’t bad either. This game may be 3-0.

It really is that simple. Same is true for Tulane and JMU as-the rules of the playoff stand.
re: Flex 9 schedule to protect players and get the best SEC teams into CFB

Thoughts?
I assume your flex week would avoid rematches from earlier in the season. This is going to cause some issues some years. Say your proposed 1 v 5 matchup has already played; you have a rematch or have to reseed everyone. Also, you are guaranteeing a really tough end to the season for your best teams with the top half of the conference playing each other, followed by their rival, followed by another really tough game. I’m not sure that is going to help position more teams for the playoffs as you are guaranteed to have more losses for half of your better teams.
With this year as an example, you’d have Ole Miss, OU and a&M all risking another loss. In the Sooners case, it would probably knock them out with a loss.
I like the flex schedule idea, but think you need some tweaks.
Honestly, I think they needed to do it to justify Alabama not falling.
Was Mahomes lobbying for a flag there?

I think this might be the exception to the rule that beating a team the second time is difficult.
Playing number 1 at a neutral site is easy, huh? That’s IF you can win a rematch against a team you eked out a win against.

Yeah, we should definitely be behind the team that went to OT with both Kentucky and State.

Coaches that talk like this are pussies.
Kirby did this exact same kind of politicking after the 2023 SECCG as did Saban in 2022. I don’t like it either, but you just called your coach a pussy.

This would’ve been a much better end to the season than what we are going to get.

Day after thoughts… a little catharsis

I know everyone is disappointed.
The obvious negatives…
-Ty played a bad game - the game plan didn’t help him out a lot, but Ty is obviously up in his own head. The short arm throws and unwillingness to pull the trigger at times coupled with some baffling throws into traffic were not the stuff of an experienced QB playing well.
-Bama got outcoached - Kirby has one of the best staffs around, and he is experienced. It happens. This wasn’t getting cooked by a bad OU team last year. It was facing a really good and motivated team with a really good staff. UGA is one of the teams with a real chance to win it all. Having said that, the decision to pass the ball with under 20 seconds on the clock was baffling, and going for it from the 10 late in the game was worse.
- The OL is a problem - There were moments where Ty had some time, but 18 pressures plus however many sacks are not the makings of a successful offensive night. Still no real run game push either.
The RBs are limited - Pass pro was a problem for them, and Hill especially didn’t look comfortable with catching the ball ( some bad throws didn’t help the equation)
WRs dropping balls is an issue - What else is there to say? Making contested catches separates great teams from everyone else.
Special Teams are no bueno - Outside of FG woes, which were not an issue in this game, the P and PR situation for Alabama leave a lot to be desired. To me the punt block was the play of the game. Not that it was impactful on the game, but even Cole muffed a punt
Some positives…
-Defense played well- They showed some physicality. I do wish they could’ve held UGA to at least one FG, but the scoring “drives” were almost exclusively short field situations. They got out schemed at times, but the effort was there
I made a post earlier in the season about DeBoer still growing as a coach. This game revealed some areas he needs to improve his game planning and decision making. I don’t have any inside sources, but it doesn’t seem that there is the attention to detail and commitment to prep and implementation that is needed to be championship level. I have heard that this staff is ultra confident in their ability to out scheme people. I haven’t heard that Bama is a staff/team that will outwork people. I’m not saying they are lazy or anything, but an all out commitment to excellence is not necessarily in the DNA. It has to be learned and constantly reinforced. I hope this staff can continue to grow that mentality.
TLDR version… lots of work to do

Zona went in to UConn and got the W. They are a legit contender. Travelling out West to play there is no joke.
We will never know.
