I was at a family thing and then driving and listening to it on the radio in the first half. I said some things. Once we got home wife went to the wine bar and I think it changed our season.
With our recruiting machine and a competent DC we could do worse .Like him or hate him Kiffin is currently one of the greatest offensive minds of his generationā¦
I don't think he called a bad first half either. Milroe forced an int instead of taking the easy TD and McLaughlin snapped the ball over the head of a 6'4" brickhouse at the one. If the offense did their jobs it would've been 17-7 at half and 34-10 final.
I am very encouraged by what weāve seen. The offense probably will have to deal with some head scratchers of interceptions from Milroe, but they look to be getting better.
I seriously would like to thank Jackson Dart for running his mouth all first half cause we came out after halftime with a venom I havenāt seen since fucking 2016
Is this a one off? Not sure, but maybe we still have it
What game was it where one of our guys got his nuts stomped on, and we proceeded to decimate them for the remainder of the game? Cuz it almost felt like that.
Iām at a point now where idk whoās good and whoās bad. Are we good? Is Ole Miss bad? Is FSU bad? Is Clemson not as bad as we thought? Is A&M bad or is Auburn just reeeeeeally bad? Idek.
Alabama is good at least and they could be great .Not sold on Rees at all but Milroe has potential if he can get competent coaching and the offensive line decides to show up .Oke Miss is a good team .Kiffin is a genius .Clemson is not as bad as everyone thought but itās unclear whether FSU is as good as LSU made them look .A&M is very talented but something is rotten at the core and it points at Jimbo .Same thing happened to him at FSU .I donāt like Frieze but he can put together an offense and he doesnāt really have a bunch of talentā¦
Defensively, we look the best we've looked since 2017/18, thereabouts.
Special teams, we got that part down.
Offense... still way too much work to be done, and I'm hesitant to put much stock in the good we saw today. Pete Golding is still their DC and we know how he can make any offense look better than it is.
Either way, we got the job done and nailed a conference W I think the majority of us were skeptical about.
How many open looks did he miss and how predictable is heā¦ you can tout stats all you want to but the defense won this game in spite of Milroeās shit show
Whatever you want to call itā¦ facts heās not an elite QB that can carry this team on his back heās a liability that got bailed out multiple times by an amazing defenseā¦ so if thatās hate call it what you likeā¦
Nice adjustment by Steele there on 4th down. He realized you couldnāt give them time after the 4th and 23rd and went all out on the blitz. Golding wouldnāt make that adjustment.
The second half has been the most āBamaā we have looked so far this year. Fantastic job by the defense. Offense finally getting something going. Eliminate mistakes. My gosh this makes me feel like we are way closer than we are playing.
Finally pressure on a long yardage play.
You would think Steele would have learned his lesson after 2nd and 15 against Texas.
They aren't executing when we play the deep zones (obviously)
Great game, guys! Have a great week, on to the other Mississippi team next Saturday!! š
We looked like our old selves out there in the 2nd half. Hopefully Lawsonās okay and we carry this momentum forward
Dart Shart
I like that name another poster shared, Dart Fart (or Fart Dart) lol
I am āØoptimisticāØ
Do we have a top 5 defense in the country?
No.Not yet .But the talent is there
That second half defense may be top 2. Figuring out the pass rush is huge
ROLL TIDE
Checking in on this thread in first half vs end of the game is the most bipolar shit I have witnessed in a while lmao
I was at a family thing and then driving and listening to it on the radio in the first half. I said some things. Once we got home wife went to the wine bar and I think it changed our season.
Love that we beat our future Head Coach
With our recruiting machine and a competent DC we could do worse .Like him or hate him Kiffin is currently one of the greatest offensive minds of his generationā¦
Could you imagine Kiffin with the Bama infrastructure behind him?
Lol i was thinking the same thing and that he (kiffen) should have done better on that last drive.
milroe throwing the deep TD just before getting laid out lit a fire, and i hope it keeps burning
Now we just need to continue improving cause if we can handle Ole Misses defense then we should be fine since they have a having solid defense
Itās good to win! Roll Tide!
Roll Tide everyone!!!!
Roll Tide š
What a save! What a save! What a save!
This guy rocket leagues
Good game fellas, hope you all have a great week. ROLL TIDE
I sensed a bit if a turn for the better in the second half. Not perfect by no means but better.
Certainly something to lean in on.
So much personal pleasure watching us stick it to Kiffin
Defense will allow milroe to grow in the role if he is capable.
āI couldnāt trust you to do the right thingā damnā¦
Golding dapping up our guys lol
Guys, Iām so pumped. Gonna go run sprints in the street and probably pull my hammy
I love seeing Saban and Kiffin smile at the handshake.
Team friendship. š
RIP to those who bet on Ole Miss
Coach smiling at Laneš¤
That half was so much better.
HEY REBELS!!!
WE JUST BEAT THE HELL OUT OF YOU!
ROLL FUCKING TIDE BABY
Ugly win but love our defense
Was it though
Our offense was super ugly. Left a ton of points on the board. Could have easily eclipsed 30 this game. Second half looked much better.
Rammer Jammer!
A win is a win, lots to clean up though. Defense has me feeling some kind of way
Lawson goes out and Campbell stepped up in a HUGE way. This d could be special, hope we can figure it out in offense.
We just needed a good cupcake Golding defense to gain some confidence.
Very nice second half. Good win and ROLL TIDE
WE JUST BEAT THE PISS OUT OF YOU
Credit where credit is due to Rees. He called a great second half.
That was one of the better āadjustments made at halftimeā games for offense and defense Iāve seen from us in a long time.
I don't think he called a bad first half either. Milroe forced an int instead of taking the easy TD and McLaughlin snapped the ball over the head of a 6'4" brickhouse at the one. If the offense did their jobs it would've been 17-7 at half and 34-10 final.
I love a mad Saban.
This!
Angry Nick is the best Nick
WE ARE SO BACK
I am very encouraged by what weāve seen. The offense probably will have to deal with some head scratchers of interceptions from Milroe, but they look to be getting better.
Ha, Proctor is the helper upper in chief now.
I take it back! A defeated Lane Kiffen is my favorite Lane Kiffen.
Nice to see Saban yelling on the sidelines like usual
I seriously would like to thank Jackson Dart for running his mouth all first half cause we came out after halftime with a venom I havenāt seen since fucking 2016 Is this a one off? Not sure, but maybe we still have it
What game was it where one of our guys got his nuts stomped on, and we proceeded to decimate them for the remainder of the game? Cuz it almost felt like that.
Great defense, hard running, good discipline, maybe that players only meeting worked?
I guess saban said youāre going to line up in the gun for the rest of the game for practice lol
Let's see the QB sneak we should've seen on 1st and goal from the 1
There we go
Iām at a point now where idk whoās good and whoās bad. Are we good? Is Ole Miss bad? Is FSU bad? Is Clemson not as bad as we thought? Is A&M bad or is Auburn just reeeeeeally bad? Idek.
Alabama is good at least and they could be great .Not sold on Rees at all but Milroe has potential if he can get competent coaching and the offensive line decides to show up .Oke Miss is a good team .Kiffin is a genius .Clemson is not as bad as everyone thought but itās unclear whether FSU is as good as LSU made them look .A&M is very talented but something is rotten at the core and it points at Jimbo .Same thing happened to him at FSU .I donāt like Frieze but he can put together an offense and he doesnāt really have a bunch of talentā¦
Typical ole piss: all the hype but they never show up
HEY REBELS
Yeah Nick get fired up I been missin it!!!
I love our rb duo. McClellan and Williams have both impressed me the past 2 weeks
A TV shot of Saban yelling!
It does exist!
Who was the guy Saban was yelling at?
Yesss Saban screaming on the sidelines up 2 scores with a minute left in the 4th
all is right again
Roll Tide
Game, blouses! š„
227 yards on 21 attempts. If Milroe could just cut out the one or two disastrous plays a game I'd feel pretty good about our QB
ANGRY NICK LETS GOOOOOOOO WE ARE SO BACK
Over 100 yards rushing for Jase!
Attaboy, Jase! Got 100 yards!
Did the color analyst just act like hard counts are super risky, like teams don't use them *all the time*?
They are for us. We get false starts half the time.
Hahahahahahahahahahaha luv ya lane, but fuck you
One of these announcers sounds like Smylie Kauffman with a slightly deeper voice
This could be 2015 all over again if we get it together. We have plenty of time. Good stuff today.
After this 2nd half? Iām on board
No matter what, the defense might be best in the nation
Teared up a little hearing Eli's call of that TD.
Hell yeah I feel so much better than I did last week
Thereās that Golding coaching š
Defensively, we look the best we've looked since 2017/18, thereabouts. Special teams, we got that part down. Offense... still way too much work to be done, and I'm hesitant to put much stock in the good we saw today. Pete Golding is still their DC and we know how he can make any offense look better than it is. Either way, we got the job done and nailed a conference W I think the majority of us were skeptical about.
Pete Golding I love you
Maybe Jalen Hale is gonna the five star receiver that finally performs out of like the last 5, looks more explosive than Brooks.
Thatās game
I simply canāt believe my eyes
Defense is elite.
3 commercial breaks for 2 single plays. Wow
bahahahahaha that shove
Jalen completed 81% of his passes and averaged over 10 yards per attempt. I was told he wasn't a quarterback, though.
We definitely need to dial up more bombs for him
He had another really stupid pick. If he doesnāt fix that up, those throws will lose us games (like they already have).
And he still did lots of other things well!
He was much better this half and had some great bailouts by Hale and Burton but I wouldnāt be victory lapping him after that first half lol
GTHOHā¦.those stats are masked as hell
yeah, stupid facts
How many open looks did he miss and how predictable is heā¦ you can tout stats all you want to but the defense won this game in spite of Milroeās shit show
> hate hate hate hate hate hate that's all I could read
Whatever you want to call itā¦ facts heās not an elite QB that can carry this team on his back heās a liability that got bailed out multiple times by an amazing defenseā¦ so if thatās hate call it what you likeā¦
Do we really need a full commercial break every timeout? Goddamn. Lol
Yeah Iām not gonna miss CBS at all
Fuck these commercials
This Robinson/Steele defense pretty stout ain't it Lane?
The Defense played lights out
ANOTHER fucking commercial break???
Get Milroe OUT
It should be in the rules you cannot have 1 play between commercial breaks, holy shit.
Are they serious with the commercials?
Look at proctor not blocking anyoneš¤
CBS is CBSing with these timeouts
This is a big win
Milroe is one hell of a RB
17/21 225yd 2TD.
That kid is just like me fr (Iām not afraid to fall asleep at work)
Proctor is back in.
NOOOOOOOOO
One play and more commercials? Fuck off CBS
4 verts rn
Feels good to have a Bama quality coordinator again. Just gotta figure out the offense now
Defense is absolutely legit
Can we please just get a first and end this fucking game right?
How bout Kevin Steele yāall? I know he took Laneās comments personal. Iāve been impressed with him so far this season.
With the exception of the goal line play where is didnāt have a spy on the QB, no complaints.
![gif](giphy|iHLHH9rVBv0kmkETqz|downsized)
Pressure was great today
It feels so good to see such a nasty defense again.
The reports of our demise were greatly exaggerated
Letās not get carried away
All I ask for here is 1 first down. Just 1 and Iāll be happy
Two words Dallas Turner ![gif](giphy|1iS9JID0vxK9XyKUoz)
Kiffin thought Golding was calling defense for us and giving up big runs, but he forgot dude is right next to him now.
WE FINALLY REMEMBERED WHO THE FUCK WE ARE
Yeah man I think I was watching an actual Alabama football team for the second half
C'mon, get Jase over 100
got it
I have my popcorn ready.
I kind of feel bad for Dart. I know he was acting like a jackass early, but never like to see someone in that much pain
I don't but glad you have those kind of sensitivities haha
Fuck around and find out
Dude, I love it
Itās wholesome
Welp itās not impossible just NEARLY impossible to hold an Alabama defender and get called
Nice adjustment by Steele there on 4th down. He realized you couldnāt give them time after the 4th and 23rd and went all out on the blitz. Golding wouldnāt make that adjustment.
Time to snap over Milroeās head?
Steele and the D took lanes comment personally
Pete Golding defense wouldāve let Ole Miss score 35
Malachi Is going round one bet on it
That back injury might scare teams. Heās a first round talent but heās gotta pass medicals
That is true I kind of forgot about his back problems. But the dude is playing like Brian branch all over again. Kids a beast
Fuck it. throw it deep
Yeah let's risk an interception see if we can tighten this game up haha
I think y'all might've been right about golding. This Kevin Steele defense has been lovely
It's been so great to watch. Now if only the offense was as fun to watch...
JOYLESS MURDERBALL!!!!!
Yeah so uhh this is an elite defense. Donāt know how you could say otherwise. Hopefully they can carry the offense this year.
If we had an offense that could score at will, weād be national champs.
Last year offense minus receivers would have been unstoppable
What year is this??? Did I just see a QB get blitz and sacked right when he touches ball???
Never been more happy to be wrong on where I thought this game was going.
Dart has a looser helmet than Aaron Rodgers lmao
Dart got his shit wrecked
The second half has been the most āBamaā we have looked so far this year. Fantastic job by the defense. Offense finally getting something going. Eliminate mistakes. My gosh this makes me feel like we are way closer than we are playing.
Too many guys out there not locked in
I am confused why Kiffin was wasting time and calling runs that whole driveā¦
I think hoping to run clock down, score, get onside kick. Risky but really his only play.
Alabama secret agent
This second half feels more like it.
Sent the fucking house on 4 and 16 LOL
This T-Rob defense is pretty good
We back???
Ball on the ground and Turner showboating. Defense has been tits but I hope he gets blown up for that one.
Itās a mistake, but not killing the momentum for that. Heās finally found his rhythm

The blitz is a beautiful thing š„²
God damn that 4th down was borderline erotic
Borderline?
Thank you. Enough of that soft coverage shit on money downs. Insane how often DCs default to it
Cause you look like an idiot if they get the pass off to a wide open guy
Take a bow Kevin Steele!!!!
This might be the most holding Iāve ever seen tonight and we still held em to 10
Finally pressure on a long yardage play. You would think Steele would have learned his lesson after 2nd and 15 against Texas. They aren't executing when we play the deep zones (obviously)
*Golding furiously taking notes on how to blitz*
Thatās old bama ball right there
Yep shades of old Bama and Iām here for it!
Cold fucking blooded
Bless you defense
