Well. At leat smokey bear is keeping things safee

94yds total offense. Ty leading rusher with 17. I’ve seen enough of scrub Grubb in year 1 to be done with him. I know DeBoer would never cut him loose but he seems like he doesn’t even want to be here.

 

[BamaFan334]

Throw the ball behind the line of scrimmage out of the gate?

 

[Bammerboy321]

Everything Grubb calls goes right into DeBoer's head set.

 

[Bammerboy321]

3rd and long and Ty dumps ot off

 

[BamaFan334]

Why even throw it short there when you have time? Ty needs to be benched. Tired of the ineptitude.

 

[Bammerboy321]

No sense of urgency from DeBoer's teams. None.

Cignetti has the look that he killed his wife

 

[BamaFan334]

Where is Lawson going?

 

[Bammerboy321]

3rd and short and Alabama is just going through the motions on offense.

Alabama has not played Alabama football since 2020. Probably the last time Alabama was truly coached well.

CCC can flat out coach. He has a highly rated offense and defense. What he has done at IU is nothing short of a miracle. What a staff Bama had back in the day under CNS.

 

[BamaFan334]

Why does Jefferson take the inside angle there? Making zero sense.

Coaching or lack of coaching. It has to be drilled over and over.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Simply not a championship level team. Alabama has had flashes under DeBoer but the overall body of work has shown us that he is not a championship level coach. Probably a good coach, but not elite.

 

[alabama mike]

Herbie just called it, “ just out there, no intensity and no penetration.”

You can tell Curt Cignetti is a Saban disciple. They're up 17-0 in the 2nd half, and he doesn't look happy. If BAMA can't pull this one out, I'll be rooting for IU to go undefeated the whole way and win it all. I know most people would stay in conference and pull for UGA or OM, but IU is impressive and they deserve it. They look AND play like a championship-caliber team. And they look like the most complete team on both sides of the ball.

And, again, if BAMA can't pull this one out, I'd much rather lose to the #1 team (+ the Heisman Trophy winner) than anyone else.

Still...RMFT!!!

The Cignetti sure learned his craft at Alabama..... and brought that same artillery to Indiana. Watching this is like watching an Alabama team 7 years ago. I'm wondering if we'll even be able to score a single point in this blow out.
