🏈 Alabama's best played game in the Nick Saban era?

[saturdaysarebetter]

Considering the quality of opponent, what was the best played game by the Crimson Tide under Nick Saban?

 

[Bama Guy]

Alabama beating LSU in 2012 National Championship game. Just dominate. Imposed thier will on LSU.

 

[24and7]

The last SEC title in the Saban vs Richt series of games..

 

[bamaledge]

Beating the crap out of Michigan State in the Capital One bowl.

Notre Dame 2012, the college football world thought Notre Dame's shit was gold that year and we skull drug them up and down the field for 4 quarters.

Me n @bamafan9201 agree on this...
It was pure total domination ...start to finish

ND 2012...and AJ n Jones getting into late in game was classic

But Texas 2009 was close..

But there have been many

Worse was vs Clemson..2018....great team...terrible game...( before anyone ask)...

This one is up there for me, as the the earlier mentioned 21-0 shutout of LSU. I'd add the 2009 SEECG game... the day Alabama took the crown from Florida, and did so with authority. Also, 2015 at UGA.

Beating the crap out of Michigan State in the Capital One bowl.

An absolute massacre... and still probably the best game thread of all-time (on an MSU board).

If you want to discuss all time favorite games...... 1992 Miami. Sweet.

I also felt we played a complete game against Ohio State in 2020.

Yes! I meant to list that one and got too caught up reminiscing about the '15 UGA beatdown.

And speaking of which, that '21 SECCG with UGA was quite the pummeling too.

09’ Florida also!!!
08’ Georgia too!!

One of my favorite games of all time!!!
My brother had 2 buddies that were GA’s at Miami. He talked to them and tubberville, tubbs said there was no way they could beat Bama. He said the entire staff knew it was going to be a rough day for them!!!

So many here that are great to me in my eyes, also some of Coach Stallings. But to me it has to be the 2008 at BDS after the game and all Bama had stopped the Cow Patties winning streak. 36-0!

 

[64Tide]

We about to get our a$$ beat by 8 and you guys are reminiscing…SARC!!!

They just ran their third string running back at us and all our linebackers could do was stand there and throw their purse at him.
One of my favorites from that game thread. The whole thing was epic.

 

[BamaFan334]

The Notre Dame game was near perfect in every aspect of the game.

The best game was that 2012 SEC Championship game against Georgia.

 

[Kirk Van de Graaff]

Every time we curb stomped Tennessee in Sabans tenure here. The 2017 Sugar Bowl against Clemson wasn't too bad, but the Notre Dame NC game gets my vote.
