Johnny and the Gigems in Bama's heads...

[4down20]

I've seen you mention this a few times, yet no other Bama fans have denied it. Of course we had a tough game with LSU the week before A&M and that probably had some sort of impact, what's the big deal? I honestly hope that doesn't make you feel good.

No doubt, it's usually the fans of other teams saying "Don't try and use the LSU game as an excuse".

I think he's just looking for a moral victory.

It's motivation for the players to do 1 more rep, to put more effort in their workouts, and so on.

Do you realize how hard it is to keep a team that has won the past 2 championships motivated and focused for the next year to keep working at the same level? Anything negative that can be pointed out will be. The loss serves as a reminder to everyone on the team.

You are reading way too much in what really just amounts to locker room fodder.

fuck NO!!!! How would I Know??? Im a cotdamn Duck fan!

It does in the scope ya had two tough games all regular season, which ya barely managed to split, while LSU was playing 5....and they all counted the same in the SEC standings....which of course dictates who goes to Atlanta, and of course that team has won the last 6 natty's...

I mean, combine Bama's great might with a pastry tough schedule, what is the expected result?

Saban admits in May that preparation for the aTm offense has been an "Ongoing Process"

In the Alabama weight room the aTm vs Bama 2012 game is playing on all the tvs. aTm towels hang from the weights. Motivation? Or is Johnny seriously in Tide Nation's heads?

Johnny is in their heads because it's sure not motivation...

You do realize it's just general motivation for the next season right?

I actually change my mind, I think Johnny and the gigems are definitely in Saban's head. From the looks of it, he's scared shitless. I hope he can speak at sec media days.

All coaches use losses as teaching tools and motivations.

This is fairly common.

Is a coach supposed to focus on a EASY WIN to get a teams attention or a GUT WRENCHING LOSS??

ALABAMA simply does not have too many losses to pick from lately.

IT is not like they had a handful of bad losses to focus on as motivation. That was the only one.

I imagine had it been Ole Miss or LSU, that game would be playing.

It has nothing to do with aTm in particular.

 

[Bamabino]

Bama > your lame teams, both presently and alltime. Deal with it.

Hmm, the latest on the field results do not back up your statement.

29-24

A&M had "you can't compete in the SEC" stuff all over the place last off season.

I understand the psychological motivation of it. I wonder if it was put out too early. I can understand the two weeks before the game but after a while the players might get numb to it.

And yeah they had a tough LSU game before we came to town. We had four straight road games. This is the SEC. If you're scared, get a dog. I don't remember Saban talking about the the LSU game during the A&M post game conference. Bama fans won't have that excuse this year. The scheduling gods gave them a bye week before their two toughest games.

I've always thought the excuse Bammers were using about how their players were so "beat up" from the week before playing LSU as the reason they lost to Aggy was pretty weak. So when Bama whips Aggy this year, you boys won't have a problem when Aggy fan base uses the "their players were so beat up from the week before" excuse, right?

You do realize A&M plays Sam Houston St the week before?

 

[WhiteMamba]

IF YALL LOVE JOHNNY SAY YAAAAAYYYYAAAH!

Kid has SWAG. And I am going to love it when he shuts up the media and haters and tears up CFB this season...

 

[lilchi721]

Shouldn't Saban and the Tide focus on Virginia Tech first and then worry about A&M after. I mean in the SEC doesn't every game matter, not just one particular game am I wrong is Dan Mullen wrong?

Sam Houston will put it on 'em! Bookmarket!
