If my Buckeyes don’t make it to the playoffs, I will at least enjoy seeing Bama anihilate the Seminoles!

When Nick Saban was the head coach of the Miami Dolphins, he smacked the local media around...they hate him.
For that reason alone, I enjoy seeing Nick Saban succeed.

By getting the Auburn receiver to drop 2 touchdown passes?

As an Auburn Alumni and huge Auburn fan, it doesn't matter that the receiver dropped two TD passes; what matters most is the final score and Auburn lost. We had our opportunities, but you can not trade field goals for touchdowns. You have to give it to Alabama's defense, we had them on their heals but they stopped us and forced field goals.
I would love to see them smash FSU in the championship game, but I don't think they will make it there. They have a tough game against GT next week and if they get by them they will have an even tougher game against one of the other top 3 teams. I don't think their luck will last....

Auburn did a good job of defeating themselves this season. Last night walking away with only 3 points multiple times. Other losses giving up 14 points in the first five minutes of the game. And penalties. What was with 3 of them last night, almost in a row, with 5 in the backfield formation? And a couple of big 10 & 15 yard penalties.
I do have a GREAT picture this a.m. on my daughters facebook of her in her AUMB uniform and her boyfriend in his Million Dollar Band uniform.
Other than that . . . sad end to the season.
War Eagle!

Agreed, I think the Miss St game took their mojo and confidence away. They spotted them 21 pts with 3 turnovers in the first qtr and they have never looked the same.
That is cool about your AUMB daughter dating and Alabama Band student. Growing up in Alabama I had many friends and family that that dated or married into conflicted loyalties between AU and UA. My father even attended both Universities. It is one of the greatest rivalries and best games of the year.
To: martinidon
Yep, I agree after the MS State game. One of their friends from high school band is in the Famous Maroon Band . . . all the kids have had a great year.
And then when they let Texas A & M beat them.
And today my husband and son aren’t having much better luck with their TN Titans.
That is neat your Dad attended both. I just love the little town of Auburn! We’re up north in Rocket City USA, aka Huntsville. :)

Auburn did a great job but made key errors.
Saban though is the best coach of this, or possibly any, college football era. Great recruiting and his players stay around, develop well, and move on to pro careers. He’s got the factory going - sad to say.
Was hoping to see two SEC west schools in the playoffs. No luck though as State laid an egg...

Alabama, Auburn, FSU, all outstanding football teams. But sorry to break it to y’all...
This is the year of the DUCK!!
Mariota is for real and the best player in all FBS. I can’t wait for the rest of the country to finally get to watch him.

I watched him last night, and he was impressive!

Charles Nelson is becoming one of the most prolific players in the country. I can’t wait until he gets the ball more.

What a steaming pile. Saban went no huddle because Simms in more comfortable in those sets. Going NH was Simms last chance to get his head out his behind before being yanked for Coker.
Doubtful is was even Saban's idea. Most likely Kiffin's.
