I don't know.
I think Clemson or OSU could beat them. I think this is just like the 2014 team. Hurts is Simms 2.0. His arm doesn't scare me, and I don't feel Bama's defense is as elite as usual. Guess we'll find out soon.

I just realized how sick I am of Saban. The guy is well on his way to winning yet another NC, yet he looks like he's coaching the 2003 MSU football team. Every time they put the camera on him, he's pacing the sideline and looks like he's questioning his entire existence.
The amusing thing to me is that the rest of college football focuses on creating these spread, hi scoring offenses and Bama keeps winning with their powerful defense.
I wasn't alive/cognizant while Bear did his thing at Bama. But Saban there seems to have a lot of the same traits coaching/discipline wise. Nick just lacks the Southern Charm & the lax recruiting rules Bryant bended.
Coach used to always
tout Les was greater than Nick...lulz. One of his many dubmass predictions.

Nah. This whole
fans holding not beating Saban against him is ridiculous, though. Wouldn't you agree?

At least I've never seen a coach on our sideline or booth get a snack from a nostril on national tv!
No harm intended but you do always comment something about Mullen. Been noticing it all season long but just haven't said anything until now. If someone criticizes Mullen you get all bent out of shape and always get the last word in.
Dude give it a break. You're a freaking broken record with this crap. No one has said **** about Mullen yet you always bring this up.
I was for the 70's and forward... Hence my hatred is higher for the Gumps than the Bowties.
Hell this may be the best defense he's had at bama. But it seems like we say that every year.
I think the only way to beat bama is vertically and with a mobile QB. If you don't have WRs that can get downfield and create separation, you're not beating them.
He did more than bend the rules, he used the rules to his advantage, manipulated people and ran the conference accordingly, thus the reason for certain programs getting visits from the NCAA that he thought shouldn't be competing with him (ex. Bob Tyler-Miss. St., Doug Barfield-Auburn). He also had a heavy influence with the bowls. There's a reason they got the Cotton and we got the Sun in 1980 and make no mistake about his influence in that decision. Bryant with all of his charisma would likely have a tougher time with the game today because he wouldn't have the same ability to control and set the stage.
Even though the game is different today, Saban manages it to perfection in his own way. For that, I admire the Hell out of him.
We'd be lucky to ever have someone with half of his drive and intensity.

Maybe, but
I think their stats are overblown by weaker offenses in the SEC this year. They don't appear to be as intimidating this year and don't have their normal depth.

That's a fair argument about the SEC offenses. But they just held the PAC 12s best team to 7 points.
My apologies, Ebert.
The thread was on Saban, and how he's built the best football program any of us have ever seen. Being that this is a MSU board, I tied it in w the comment that it's laughable how some of our clown-dick fans hold not beating Saban, against Dan. Next time I'll be sure to check in with you, prior to posting, for approval.
Try not getting so worked up. It's just a message board. Have a happy new year.

Pretty sure that is what we have!
And I am a Mullen fan. Just saying there is no one else like Nick.
Saban eats the same thing everyday for Breakfast and Lunch
He eats the same thing everyday so he doesn't have to waste time deciding what he wants for lunch... do you think he would have a Hevesy or Sallach on his staff?.... NO.... he ranks his assistants and lets go of the underperformers and rewards the high achievers.... He wouldn't have let Brian Johnson go to Houston because it may hurt Hevesy's feelings if Johnson was promoted...

Is it possible
Johnson left because the position was more appealing at Houston, given that he's from there and was given total control of the offense?

Yeah out of the mountains of questionable statements that have been posted on this board over the years, this one is right there at the top. They are the 85 bears with more pick 6's.
They've benefited from an easier schedule than normal
What SEC team has a decent offense? Ole miss in September was the only good offense they faced. They gave up 43 points. Yes they held Washington to 7. They were C-USA slow. If the teams play like they did last night, Clemson wins by 10+
ETA: I'm not saying they are bad, I'm saying I don't think they are as elite as they have been in recent years. They are still very good.
