Well down by 6 at the half, did you think we would be in the position earlier today?

3 down would be so much prettier than down 6.

Hi all

Just in from work. Tim Priest was saying on the way home that Lincoln looked weak in warmups. Was the attempt close?

by ChattVol on Oct 24, 2009 5:17 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Was hoping to be a little closer at the half

We’re going to have to make something out of our many trips into their end this time. Three times inside their 35, 3 points.

by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 24, 2009 5:17 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Early in the season, we got the ball first in the 3rd quarter

And promptly threw interceptions. But that was with Bad Crompton. Let’s hope it looks different this week.

by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 24, 2009 5:18 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

so far, UT is hanging on, but Bama really had the better half.

That ability to get consistent rushes up the middle is a serious problem.

by Hooper on Oct 24, 2009 5:19 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Not that much better

Only 38 yards more offense. The special teams have been a 3 point swing. This probably should be a 3 point lead for the Tide.

by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 24, 2009 5:31 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Really, the running game in general has been the difference.

Against the #1 team in the country

I can handle 9-3 at half. Especially considering we’ve missed some opportunities. If we can capitalize in the 2nd half, we might have a shot to win

she’s never been to a UT away game, and she keeps sending me texts about how terrible their fans are. This road trip has turned her into a Bama hater for sure.

and she is sitting in the Alabama player family section…. haha

I'll be really sad

if EB can’t get his 15 yards. He’s done so much shoring up weaknesses on D for CMK instead of roaming the backfield. I’m hopeful, but growing depressed with each game

He’s spending an awful lot of time in run support for many opportunities.

good job fending him off. I think you guys might have put me back on heart meds with that game.

Cody

Is a stud. Good win, and etc. I still hate your guts, but that’s the way this game is supposed to be. Well, we’re supposed to win, but …

thanks for the kind words

It’s been a fun week with you all coming around. Good luck!

That was an impressive game.

Looks like both teams took each other’s best shot, and y’all came out on top.

What a game. I am so sick right now

But Bama won, and we fought hellahard. And how about Crompton?

how good would he be if he’d been playing under this staff his whole career?

Yeah. So much for the spread.

But I’m not going for a moral victory on this one. UT lost that game by their own special teams.

by Hooper on Oct 24, 2009 7:08 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

No

This is no moral victory. This is a loss, and a tough one to swallow. Most disappointing moment since 2007.

i agree that had the refs called for excessive celebration

it would have been weak, but AJ Green should be pissed

Also I know we can talk about the shortfall in the kicking game

but there has got to be something said about those penalties. maybe im just spoiled by our very disciplined year so far

And they can only use the balls once

You can't sit on a lead and run a few plays into the line and just kill the clock. You've got to throw the ball over the goddamn plate and give the other man his chance. That's why baseball is the greatest game of them all.

I don't think that's going to be a concern.

This team shoudn’t have an issue with that.

This much is true:

Alabama will continue to stay strong under Saban. Tennessee is going to become strong under Kiffin.

If john chavis had been our defensive coordinator

Engram would have run for 150 yards and they would have scored 24+

Earlier, I'd said that I'd be satisfied with 7-5

At this point, I don’t think anything but finishing 5-0 can save the season. We’ve shown too much to not be winning.

by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 24, 2009 7:14 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

The improvement only matters for the future

I’m talking about THIS season being a success. And this team is too good to go 7-5.

by Incipient_Senescence on Oct 24, 2009 7:18 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I know!

7-5 does seem beneath them after tonight.
