🏈 Louis Nix comments after the game

[planomateo]

Ha, I didn't watch the LOS that closely on the live watch of the game.

What I did see, our ability to run and the lack of sacks or tackles for a loss. Yeah, the DL didn't get dominated....

That was as much domination as it is when I step on an ant

 

[BAMA JAMMA]

Clearly he bumped his head

 

[BamaCore]

What is it they always say? Denial isn't just a river in Egypt? ...well, that one doesn't work so well in text form...but you all get my point. :lol:

 

[JoshB]

Yeah thats 100% denial right there. When he watches the tape if he's not blind he'll realize how ridiculous he sounded after the game. Barrett handled his ass all game long.

 

[Bamabww]

He might as well man up and say it because everyone else knows he got dominated.

 

[bamaraider]

Sour grapes, denial. Let the butt-frustration flow out, they got their asses man handled from start to finish. Physically and mentally.

 

[rick4bama]

what is he smoking I would love some. And I don't even smoke!!:shock:

ND DT Louis Nix insisted to me after the game that ND's DL didn't get dominated. He asked: "Do you think Barrett Jones dominated me?"

Nix pointed the problem on missed tackles. Why? "I can't explain it. Can you tell me why we're on earth? Can you tell me, what is gravity?"

Nix:"(Bama OL) did not dominate, I hope no one uses that word. I don't think they physically dominated us and took us out to the woodshed."

Bama's OL not only took them "out to the woodshed," they pulled their pants down and spanked them with a hickory stick.

 

[cartag]

. . .he said from his corner of the woodshed.

 

[bcracker]

And after the spankings, Bama's OL burned the shed down! Nix may have been hiding in his corner, but he got burned all the same.

[rick4bama]

I could run that hole. what am I'm saying I could walk it.

 

[0LDSCH00L]

I take back my Notre Dame's players showed class after reading his comments...

One bad apple...

 

[bcracker]

That is the definition of domination.
