Agreed. His after game talk with Sark seemed much much longer than usual and it was all Sark talking. Alabama has lost its edge to Georgie and with OU and Texas moving next door the road only gets harder. And he’s old. 

I think a lot of things are finally catching up to Saban and Bama.

The revolving door of assistants is maybe finally becoming a detriment. This team is still feeling the hang over from last year's shitty OC and DC. They lack discipline, making stupid after stupid penalties.

Their last 4 QBs will be playing in NFL games today. They didn't recruit QB well after Sark left. He actually may have fucked them leaving them with Milroe, who everyone knew was going to take 3-4 years before becoming a complete passing QB. It's amazing that the couldn't pull a QB from the portal.

And prob most importantly, they lost their competitive advantage of paying players under the table. Georgia started outpaying them and now NIL makes negates any advantage that they once had.

If this season goes to shit, which it can if Milroe can't learn to read coverage by the time conf play starts, I can see Saban retiring at the end of the season.

I know people here think it sucks but the SEC Shorts for this week should be pretty good.

This explains the rise and the fall.  No need to get into the rest of it.

A player that won't get a lot of attention from this game but should is Jonathon Brooks. He lowered his shoulder several times in this game when there really wasn't anything there. 

That 3rd and 2 run on the final drive where he initiated the contact with a LB made me say "woah that guy is physical." 

We saw him develop in one game. Remember that fourth-and-2 late in the third quarter? Brooks should've picked it up, but his pad level wasn't low enough and he got turned and then stopped.

On that third-and-2 on the game's final drive, however, Brooks lowered his pads and helmet--he was not going to be denied! This is obviously not an awesome run-blocking offensive line, so Texas will need what Brooks showed in the fourth quarter each and every game if it's going to have an effective ground game.

Hell yeah. I was very down on Brooks after Rice but he turned it around and was the man when we needed hard yards to ice the game away. I think he and Baxter can be a great 1-2 punch.

Milroe isn’t their issue. They don’t have anything at the skill positions on either side of the ball

On a composite comparison, I'm a 64.8% better qb than Milroe.

Milroe seems like a Jalen Hurts type of player just not as good. And if he doesnt work insanely hard the way Jalen does he wont be around very long.

Jamal Lord.  Not quite as big, but a bit faster IIRC.   Needs a lot of coaching or to switch positions.  If he can catch, I would love to have him as a WR transfer.

Brooks picking up the fumble and and getting the first down was one of the biggest plays of the game. Kudos to SEC officials for calling a fair game and actually correcting officiating mistakes. I’m fairly certain Big 12 officials would have fucked us on that one. Honestly, officiating is my biggest concern going forward. I still haven’t seen an explanation for overturning the Worthy catch last week, not to mention the obvious PI penalties.

I disagree!!! Our secondary for the first time in a long time is sticky in coverage!!! Other than the Thompson TD every other catch was defended well. No WR was just running open wen we maned up. 
 

the secondary was the reason imo the d-line balled like they did and vice-versa.

Gbenda getting knock to the ground and keeping going for the sack was special.

Running back by committee this year with Blue and Robinson as well should be interesting (and good.)

It would have been nice for Keilan to have racked up more yards against his former team.

Sanders and Mitchell both should be much better blockers than they are. Would really help out in the running game, and sometimes it leaves points on the field.

#5134
Ewers was fantastic. If we get that guy each week, holy fuck balls. 
 
Saban knew very early that they were in trouble. When we quit beating ourselves they had no chance 

At one point early in the game, the camera was on Saban after a good play for Texas. Looked like he mouthed how do we stop that shit or we can’t stop that shit.
#5135
Texas came into the game with a better quarterback, better offensive line, better receivers. Finally, it mattered for the Horns. https://t.co/PJrQZAnDgw

Milroe would do better in what we do with ewers, quick passes and rollout rpo. But this bama team will end up losing 3 maybe 4 games this year.

that 4th down play where sanders got blown the fuck up on his block isn't going to be fun to watch on film today.

Someone else mentioned it in a different thread but it's a great thing to point out about how this team is different. Every player that had a mental lapse, made up for it later in the game. Burke whiffed on a tackle, makes a shoestring sack later. Worthy drops a sure fire TD,  catches a bomb for a TD later. Thompson gives up the deep ball for a TD, makes a pick later. The mistakes didn't put them mentally in a hole. That says something for how this team might be on cusp of greatness.

The one where turner runs over to his side right at the snap?  I’ll assume he had his assignment picked out and then turner jogged over right before the snap and caused some confusion.

Milroe's picks were bad... like he just flat didn't see a guy. But I thought Bama did a disservice by not giving him 6-8 designed runs. Dude can move. And when you have to account for that more, it opens up the passing game.

In my mind, Sanders told Turner "Take the loss, pussy" after the last snap.
