Sorry for getting this put out so late. I had a full Labor Day vacation which included going to this game. I try to get these done before the start of the week since I get pretty busy once the week starts, but in this case I had no option but to wait until I got home and the just work on it a I could find bits of time. Roll Tide!
I just noticed the first drive foreshadowed the whole season converting fourth downs nice rushes by Damien Harris and Bo Scarborough and overthrew passes by Jalen Hurts and a missed field goal
Man i used to get so sick of watchin jalen take off and run every single time his first look wasnt there... 🤦♂️ so many 3 and outs that could have been avoided
@@b-radjoseph1052 how many 8-5 teams you know can hang with a healthy bama for 3 qtrs? Hell. FSU did better vs bama than number 1 Clemson that year Foolish to say 8-5 lol they quit after this game.
@@b-radjoseph1052 lsu won 9 games that year and it easily could've 10 had they not choked their bowl game away to ND. Let's see... Mississippi state was also a 9 win team... A&m was the worst out the bunch... 1 thing all these teams had in common; they all were at home coming off of a bye week to prepare for bama. FSU was a neutral site game and it was the first week of the season. No one in there right mind would say any of those teams we just named are better than that fsu team If they were healthy with their confidence intact.
I guess it matters that you just do the fair catch gesture doesn't matter if it's a low hand or a high hand, all that matters is that you show the fair catch signal
I’m not so sure how good a coach Jimbo is. No offense but with all the talent he should have had in Tallahassee he should have more than 1 natty. They looked bad this game. I love how everyone says Bama plays weak non conference games. Hell we normally start out with the opening game of the yr. Not this yr cuz Lamar went pro.
For all my Noles fans who think Blackman should start over Francois... you're crazy. Not saying that Blackman dosen't have talent but he doesn't have the experience that Francois has. He'll get there but if you have a healthy Francois it's not even a question...HE'S YOUR STARTING QB!
Sword Smith I totally disagree. FSU went 10-3 his 1st year starting. Since u stated that u dont know all our options its probably safe to assume u haven't watch enough of Francios' games to conclude that we cant win a Championship him. We absolutely can.
"If the playoff committee will be so kind as to give us a spot in the playoffs in spite of our pitiful resume, we will do our best to at least score a field goal this time". - Ohio State after the 55-24 beatdown by Iowa
Urban Decay it was a weird situation with the playoff committee this year. Even though OSU lost to Iowa and Oklahoma they won the B10 and Bama lost to Auburn and didn’t make the conference championship game
Ohio State didn't make it to the conference championship game in 2016 but made the playoffs, what happened this year for Bama happened for Ohio State the year before. The only difference is Alabama beat Clemson 24-6 and won the National Championship and when Ohio State made it without winning their conference they got beat down by Clemson 31-0.
solution: We take the conference champions from the Power Five (PAC-12, SEC, Big 10, Big 12, ACC). The committee then ranks those teams 1-5 based on the usual criteria. The committee then selects three "wild card" teams meaning teams that didn't win the conference but have a legitimate claim at competing for a national title
Both teams played equally well. FSU more than likely should of went into half 14-10 which could have changed the game. FSU looked a lot more dominant. What won this game was special teams.
FSU looked better in the 1st quarter and most of the 2nd. They did not look more dominant in the 2nd half. The FSU offense collapsed even more spectacularly than Bama's offense in the 3rd and 4th. They had a legit defense though. I think both teams had bad 0-line and QB play for most of the game. It did come down to the defense and ST. Bama's punter really put it to them.
Watching this offense work is torturous Tua running the show was a lot better to watch Alabama never had a throwing QB like Tua in their History Watching Jalen tuck it and run instead going through his progression is nauseating
Why is it that Bama doesn't have any good kickers? Shaky legs ppapanastys almost cost the championship had it not been for Tua. Of course he's probably playing for Georgia.
Alabama gets linebackers and safetys to the nfl name me any good corners or quraterbacks or kickers. Yall got one running back mark ingram thats half decent in the league. Lsu got better talent than yall do yall just got a better coaching staff. Lsu got all pro nfl guys everywhere. Akers is good can be great dont shoot that kid down cause he aint go to bama
Sean McClelland think it wasn’t cause he didn’t actually tackle him like the FSU player did. But yes the pass interference no call was bad. Our guy didn’t even look back for the ball. But could have been called on FSU earlier on the pass to our guy in the left back part of the end zone. He got there a fraction early.
He looked pretty good coming off the bench and smacking UGA around in the SEC championship game. It's almost like players can improve over time. What a concept.
Jason Bishop And beat the two best teams in the nation when they were healthy and still had something to play for. So what's your lame ass fucking point? Roll Tide!
Richard Smead Lol. Go watch the ole miss fsu game. One touchdown right before have was enough of a spark. Its not the points that would have been important but the momentum
You mean the same crayons FSWHO used to draw up all those suck ass plays, LOLOLOL you bore me, it like the Busch beer commercials.... SSSHHHHHHHHH shut the fuck up loser.
Thank you SO MUCH for posting this game. I made arrangements to watch this game on ABC in Phoenix AZ on my tv by myself. I had a 6-pack of Smirnoff Ice and ready. Unfortunately the local ABC affiliate decided to broadcast it in Spanish. I don't speak Spanish. I'm American. We speak English in this country. I have no use for you Spanish speaking people. Why don't you go back to your native country and leave the Americans alone!
