I expected, because of all our defensive injuries, that we would struggle but I didn’t expect us to just roll over like we did. The team played with no urgency or fire.

Also, I am not thrilled with our first year OC. Bama possesses the best stable of running backs in College Football, yet at times, Coach Daboll seems to forget they exist. After storming down the field for a TD early in the third quarter, one would expect to think that Coach Daboll would stick with what was working. But NO.....

Bama fans aren’t enamored with our O line coach either. The line has been wildly inconsistent this year and was downright terrible today.

It would be nice, just for once, if the refs would call holding against Bama’s opponents. But, THAT will never happen, especially against the SEC darling, Auburn, in their stadium.

Oh well, you can’t win them all. There will be days when it’s just not your day and this was one of them.

I’m still fiercely proud of this team and to be a Bama fan. ROLL TIDE!!!

The enthusiasm and loyalty expressed in your post is a yuge part of what makes collegiate athletics such fun .. and may it always remain so !

Thanks to all who contributed to the thread.
Really, the 'shocking' referred to re this AU-UA upset (to a BigTen fella) was that almost an hour had gone by and no one had posted a thread about it .. egads !

Yesterday was a very rare three game day for me, and I konked out about 22:30.
So if any replies were neglected, it was due to fatigue rather than rudeness.

Anyway, sure hope next Saturday gets here quick !
