Seriously, where the hell did Trevor Knight come from? Dude was on point ALL night... even the pick early in the game wasn't his fault...

Why did ya'll start Bell most of the year or did Knight's "light" not come on until bowl practice?

Good question. Start Knight from the beginning of the year, and OU is probably playing on Monday night instead of Auburn.


Wife pays attention to stuff I miss though, and she told me Knight got hurt a couple of times earlier in the season.

He was also very erratic to start the season. Like a deer in the headlights at times.

Hello, Trevor. Farewell, AJ.
Trevor Knight's final start as a freshman sent
Oklahoma's expectations soaring into 2014 while
bringing a sour end to AJ McCarron 's otherwise
charmed Alabama career.

so, have the "Bama's heart wasn't in it, they wanted to be in the national championship game" excuses started yet?

It was the last game for two of the greatest players in Bama and college football history: senior AJ McCarron and senior Butkus Award winner and SEC Defensive Player of the Year CJ Mosley (the QB of the defense) not to mention the others playing their last game for the Crimson Tide. You want to send those guys out with a W and those guys want to end their career with a W and a #2 or #3 final ranking

like McCarron said:
"I don't want to come out and just play a
game and not win it," McCarron said. "I
was playing dominoes with the family
yesterday and I won that. I want to win.
I don't really care what I'm playing."

also Nick Saban didn't buy the notion that
his team, favored by 16 points, was too deflated
from its loss to Auburn to play up to its standard.
"I actually thought that the players responded in
practice pretty well for this game," Saban said.
"We put over 500 yards of offense up" on OU

You know Trevor Knight was pretty close to going to A&M but he didn't because he didn't want to compete with Matt Davis.

So far they've been quiet for the most part. Haven't seen 'em around.

McCarron was clearly distracted.

Matt Davis wasn't even good enough to get an offer from Oklahoma. He wasn't good enough to make it at A&M, either. He transferred to the Tyler Junior College Apaches
