The Alabama offensive play reminded me of the losing game against Clemson last year.
- Roll Tide -
It was exactly like Clemson, with one exception, FSU’s quarterback play couldn’t touch Deshaun Watson. Special teams made a lot of big plays. The line was awful. We have great receivers that never get thrown to. Unlike Clemson, the defense got stronger, not weaker.
But 24-7 against a solid team that is very high rated, as opposed to the dishrags most teams played; just enjoy the ride. Roll Tide!
Dominant win.
Florida State is toast for the season after that.
That was a 1 vs 3 matchup. Can’t win every game by 50.
Could be worse, they could be Florida fans.
Seemed to me FL State beat themselves, but denied Bama several TD opportunities.
Good game, but Saban has some tuning yet to do.
Good defenses can make an offense flounder, especially in the first day of the year.
Tide’s defense was dominant and will be tough for Baker Mayfield to whoop their asses.
The only thing uglier than that game was Michigan’s uniforms.
That Alabama defense was ferocious. FSU still loses that game even if their starting QB Deondre Francois wasn’t injured. To me the only weakness for the Tide is their QB play. Jalen Hurts is not that great a signal caller but if the defense plays lights out like last night, and Hurts doesn’t make any big mistakes it looks like another trip to the national championship game for the Tide next January.
And the Gator Helmets.
I don’t see FSU recovering after that but I’ve been wrong before. The coach has his work cut out after that spanking.
I hate those one color outfit’s.
I won’t call them uniform’s.
I especially root for any team who plays the Crimson Tide. My heart was ripped out many Sugar Bowls ago.
That's normal.
Alabama has more armchair coaches that any other NCAA team.
And they are worth exactly what they get paid.
Nothing.
I'm liking this guy they hired from the Patriots, though.
I can already see some of his influence.
Roll, Tide, Roll!
I'm the same with Notre Dame.
...not to be mistaken for "throw-up" uniforms.
The funniest one, IMO, is the hydration chart:
I vote for Onesies.
C’mon! First game of the season against a highly-ranked opponent at a neutral site. A pretty dominant second half and a seventeen-point win. Bama will improve each week.
The combined IQ of both teams wouldn’t surpass room temperature, but yes, go team!
