... Jekyl and Hyde team than this year's team?

We've had bad teams, we've had good teams that underperform or play down to the competition. I've never, never seen a team like this that absolutely, positively refuses to do anything at all in the second half of games. Every game this year has been the same thing. Jump out big and pray we hang on.

And since I'm in the venting mood let me just for good measure state once again that our special teams have been anything but special, again. All day today the special teams have been the one component to Ole Miss's success whatever it might be. I know we're still getting players and maybe we lack depth in a lot of areas, but at some point this has to be addressed.

The only game where we looked good throughout was clemson and western kentucky but all the other ones we have been up and down kinda like its diff personal.

 

[bamarooski]

Thank God! We have road games left!

Because we stink our Stadium up! :?

 

[Swamptick]

We won. 7-0. #2 in the nation.

This is MUCH better than ANYONE thought we would do before this season started.

Agreed! First time Saban has been 7-0 too!

 

[TWJUA]

and watch us go to UT next week and unload on them. That fitting for this team.

I keep thinking of the old ball coach when he would say.."lets finish strong now, finish strong." We don't do that. If we did, we would be undefeated.........oh wait, we are. You get the idea.

Alabama has not played well in the 3rd quarter all season. Usually the 4th is a little better than the 3rd, but not today.

In the words of Al Davis, "just win baby."

 

[BamaFan19]

IMO when Cody left, the whole team left basically. I don't know what Saban tells the guys at halftime, but he needs to spice it up a little.

I am just hoping that PSU does not jump us.

Goes back to Terry's theme of "3's" for the Ole Miss game.

I think it's going to happen. Honestly, they probably deserve it. We really haven't played well as of late and our two big wins came against two teams that look to be overrated, Clemson for sure. Rankings me nothing to me at this point in the season. If we keep winning the rankings will fall accordingly.

 

[ExiledTidefan]

I personally think we should be #1 based on what we've done so far, but Texas killing Missouri tonight kind of gives them the up on us. If PSU blows out Ohio State next week, I give Penn State the #2 and drop us to #3. And I hate to do it...

 

[cj6891]

I could care less where we are now or next week. Mark this down. If the Tide wins out ans wins the SECCG there is now way in Heck that we don't play for the Big Iron. For the time being though, I would really love to see a four quarter beat down in Knoxville next week. Complete domination from start to finish. Maybe we can give the Phat Pumpkin a little going away gift :twisted:

Good God you must be out of your mind.

Did you even bother to look at the conferences or the schedules before making a statement like, "they deserve it"?

I guess according to you, BAMA would deserve it then if they looked good dropping 40+ on Coastal Carolina, Oregon State, Syracuse, Temple, Purdue, and the worst Michigan team in the modern era of football. Because in case you were not aware, that has been Penn State's schedule so far this year. Not only is it W.E.A.K. it is filled out largely by the worst teams in division 1.

Oh, and BTW, they play in the Big 10. That alone should take 100 points off their BCS street cred.

But I guess they deserve it, huh.

Let's not forget Penn State has won some big games too this year though. Say what you want about Wisconsin, but they laid a butt-kickin' on them. And the things they did to Oregon State the first week of the season are against the health code in 49 of 50 states. Let's not forget who Oregon State has beaten this season....

Simply....kept them in the game. Of course Rev Nutt kept running that wildcat wildcrap too. :shock:

Because they beat Michigan!? :roll: I don't think so. Deserve has nothing to do with it. BAMA is holding it's own freshmen and all.

As for rankings, I know this is a bold statement. One would think that the #2 team in the COUNTRY could score and play defense in the second half of a football game.

Unless that' gets fixed very soon you want have to worry about being #2 peroid. Jekyl and Hyde is spot on. Although I would say HYDE and Jekyl.
