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

[BamaFanAlways]

Not giving up on Bama. We've been down before, but our defense will have to get its act together quickly.
We can move the ball, when we can hang on to it.

Will be interesting to see how both teams come out from the half. Bama will surely make adjustments and Oklahoma was running on tons of adrenaline. It's going to get gritty and Oklahoma has to step up, because gritty is bama's game.

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.

True

Hey douggie,

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

 

[Shanemansj13]

Giving up 31 in the 1st half is inacceptable. Baylor didn't even do that.

 

[trojanfight]

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

 

[OnlyCrimson]

What's all this giving up talk? Bama fans are being honest and you guys say it's giving up. I think we can come back and win this game. It's just hard to talk positive when you are being outplayed.

Don't take it out on your wives Bama fans.

You're a piece of shit and you'll always be a piece of shit.

Couldn't have put it better. Don't see Bama's defense stopping OU all night long, and in a scoring-fest Bama is hopelessly behind.

Dont make excuses or were you giving an opinion based on what we all have seen this year?

See some of us know excuses and some of us clearly dont, but I wont call names out.

Roll Tide.

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

Saw Bama give up massive points earlier in the year. Don't like it ... but have come to expect it.

This isn't last year's defense.

Win or lose, I'd still like to make milf movies with Dee Dee Bonner

Mccarron's draft stock just dropped dramatically

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

Agreed. It's way too early to even think like that.

 

[douggie]

OU could have dropped their heads after that initial score by Bama. But they answered and took it to the Tide. Stoops definitely had this team prepared.

AJ's got to stop throwing into triple coverage and trying to force plays. That first pick was ridiculous. The second one the receiver could have came back to the ball and not watched the corner snatch it.

 

[Codaxx]

I have to say, this may be Stoop's best prep for a bowl game outside of 2000 NCG...

I expect Bama to stop OU coming out in the 3Q... Bama goes down and scores... Brings it within 7. That is where we'll see how OU responds...

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

 

[Bandwagonbo2]

You're a piece of shit and you'll always be a piece of shit.

Certain fans I guess can get away with stuff like that, but others get sent to the TB. Thats alright, Clemson and tOSU play tomorrow night. Tit for Tat

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.

The bolded part is ridiculous. People need to realize Saban is the best thing for this program. Probably bandwagon fans.

As far as giving up on the game? I'm not. I think Bama can come back and win. Its just going to take a perfect half by Bama and some help from OU. We shot ourselves in the foot too many times in the first half and OU took advantage of that. This first drive of the second half will set the tone for the rest of the game.

 

[HammerDown]

Which old haunt in Decatur?

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