    The most glaring thing about our last 4 games

    I am kind of feeling is that we let Bama beat us three times. When we can get over that Bama bump in the road it will be Katy bar the door. That damned game against Bama has taken the wind out of our sails twice in the last three years. The first time (2012) we just didn't have the horses to compete. But this year it was a few mental lapses that let it get away. That is the final obstacle for us breaking on through to the top.

    For some reason, I don't think that was the problem myself... Obviously, beating Alabama would be preferable.

    The most positive thing I saw tonight was the fairly aggressive offensive play calling. I don't think we were afraid of anything tonight. We're in disarray on defense right now more than anything.

    I do agree that if we beat them, we will be over the hump.

    Dans teams have found two common ways to lose:

    1) we run the tecmo bowl offense that involves running our qb or rb into a stone wall up the middle 20 times

    2) We look lost and disinterested on d, make a ton of coverage/tackling mistakes and don't adjust to a set that is killing us

    Tonight was clearly an example of #2 even though our offense had trouble inside the 30. We couldn't stop a basic high school play with our vaunted front 7 and then on the edge we missed a ton of tackles

    Oh man, I have no idea how Dan Mullen didn't flip his shit on the defense on Georgia Tech's first TD of the second half. I think Saban would have throat kicked somebody.

    It's easy to aggressive play call when you are getting your ***** handed to you. We got our labias pounded in tonite. Shit let it fly and wing the **** out of it. We sucked ass tonite.

    Saban would have had an aneurysm if his defense couldn't stop the fullback dive.

    Tell that to the 10 other teams this year who lost to them even with benefit of a defensive coordinator.

    I'm not content with the loss, I'm just not assuming the sky is falling because we couldn't stop an "exotic" offense when our DC had quit on us even before the regular season ended.

    Very few of them gave up 49 points and 400+ rushing yards though. Hell, they lost to Larry Fedora who a few days ago was being laughed at as the village idiot. Oh, and they had to score a last second TD to beat Georgia Southern at home.

    No f'n excuse not to stop that defense with a month to prepare. NONE. We gave up 400 f'n yards RUSHING. IDGAF if Megan Mullen was calling defensive plays -- it was still unacceptable.

    Again, all those teams had the guy with them who designed their defense and had called it all year.

    All those teams also had to prepare for the option in a week. We had a month.

    There's a reason we're the first team to let Georgia Tech run wild like that in a bowl game, and it's not just Collins left.

    Pshh. It isn't hard to stop a f*cking fullback dive. I could have gotten it done. Shit, I don't understand how our players didn't get it done themselves. What a f*cking joke.

    Paul Johnson probably thinks we are the most idiotic team of the SEC, and I don't blame him.
