Game Thread: Sugar Bowl #10 Oklahoma vs #3 Alabama

[4down20]

Lou Holtz tells us that after giving up 31 points in a half, the only adjustments Alabama needs to make are on offense.

What is the place in Decatur? I'm extremely curious.

 

[Team Mookie]

We've seen this kind of game before. Plus Bama isn't built to come from behind. Even if it is only 14 pts. We'll see. I think we'll need some help from OU turning it over and getting back to running the ball. And no more TOs.

Saban will slow this game down with super heavy doses of the running game. You will see the Bama DB's hug the line and pester the Oklahoma WR's from the start. This will throw off the Sooners QB and he will make some mistakes. Bama will take a page out of the B1G's book on how to handle Big 12 teams.

Fourteen points is shit with two quarters left.

Hell I thought it was rising. The NFL scouts seem to love those QB's that overthrow shit and throw picks all the time.

Key word...dramatically

OU's defense has been pretty gritty this season for as young as they are. They'll have to play better the 2nd half though to have any chance of winning this game.

They started showing some grit late in the second half. If they can continue to get pressure on mccarron with 4 rushers it would go a long ways.

Princeton's. You know it? I have consumed many, many gallons of adult beverage there.

They are still in business?

My mom was the General Manager for them, you probably know her.

OU has played a perfect game besides the one drop/interception then AJ gave it right back. They have thrown perfect passes and caught everything. Lets see if they can keep it up another half. What can you say but great playing! Lets find out what Bama is made of?

And not going to mention the helmet off non-call. oops!

 

[RACER-MIKE]

ou needs to keep the hurry up and wear out bamas D

 

[Brasky]

maybe the 2nd or 3rd qb Alabama has played against all year that has a pulse

Yep.

 

[trojanfight]

can we get a replay of saban saying you don't understand how good our league is

 

[Wishbone]

Seems maybe Stoops was right about Sec propaganda?

 

[Clayton]

While we are talking about prospects, Alabama's Left Tackle looks like a Guard at the NFL level. He is getting killed

 

[UNA Lion]

Not giving up on Bama. Am asserting that if serious halftime adjustments aren't made, Bama's on its way to losing this game.


Stoops came in with an excellent game plan and had his kids well-prepared. Bama now has to counter that.

 

[bocomo007]

Actually terrible coaching by Bama. 14 rushes and 25 pass plays in the first half. I told Bama Tee that Bama needs to run the Texas playbook. Run, run, run. OU has a weak DL and a bad ass secondary, so Bama wants to throw. Go figure

surprises me, seems obvious to everyone but little nicky

 

[Pariah]

OU giving up a lot of yards though...still worried.

Hey douggie,

Good game by your Blue Devils. They played one hell of a game.

Thanks man. It was an absolute GREAT GAME! Johnny Football is for-REAL. I was on the second row at the 40yd line. Best game I've witnessed in quite a while. Congrats!

Need to do a better job of tackling after the receiver makes the catch too...

He might know her better than you think.

 

[Camfantasy]

I just called my bro-in-law. He's watching at our old haunt in Decatur, Alabama and he said everyone is really angry and calling for Saban's head to roll. I shit you not.

I'm a little disappointed.

My wife walked out of the room when he missed the FG and is crying. She takes this shit more seriously than I do the Titans.

I just don't get why Bama fans are calling this game already.

My FB is filled with fire Saban rhetoric.

 

[trojanfight]

weren't they down 2 tds early against a&m?

Despite the 2 INTs, McCarron has completed 67% for 300 yds, on pace for 600
