We need to get some defense in the house if we expect to hang with the big boys. We need serious help on defense. I don't know if our current staff can put together the team we need to hang with the big guys.
Anybody really think would win today?

- Start date
We also HAVE to find a way to remove this mental block that we have against bama.
I gave us a 20% chance. This bama team has some major deficiencies. Turnovers limited any chances we had to take advantage of them.
I did not. But I thought we’d keep it within a couple touchdowns. We are scared of Bama, all there is to it. I don’t think we will ever beat them again unless they go through a Mike DuBose period. And that was brought on by probation, which teams will not go through anymore thanks to NIL.
Win? No
Get blown off the field like we brought a group of kids over from the local YMCA? No
We got out coached and out played in every facet of the game today. Like, we literally did nothing well. Not one thing. Kudos to Evans and Whitson, though, for at least showing up today

If we won, I would expect probation by Wednesday
We had 300 yards of offense and 23 points; what we need is defense. And we need players who scare folks on our team.
No, but I didn't expect to feel this fatalistic and demoralized about the loss. It doesn't help matters that it was such a resounding as s whipping. It just doesn't feel to me like we'll ever be able to be in a competitive game with those inbred 17s again, much less actually ever pull out a win. GD it, I hate Alabama.
I said earlier that I thought the line would be +9.5. It obviously should have been.
And if it had been disclosed that the QB was nursing an injured hamstring and couldn’t run, and the vital starting RB was clearly hurt and should have been in street clothes, then the line would’ve been +17 or more.
So, no, I didn’t think we’d win, but I’m still unhappy with a lot of **** I saw today.

Lebby and staff are a lonnngggggway from being respected in this league. If you don’t believe me listen to the commentator mock us for the second half nonstop. We fought under adversary. Then we didn’t. They looked like NFL guys next to us.
Nope. I feared today’s results. I figured our only hope is if bama turned the ball over multiple times and we played over our head. Got a couple of turnovers but those were more than offset by ours. Bottom line they are just head and shoulders better than us in most positions.
No. Not a chance. I said all week 4-1 is a great start. Plus that Minnesota win is looking really good and when Missouri beats Florida that's a big win.
Same thing with my golf swing when there’s a ball in front of me versus my practice swing
I expected us to lose a tough one, but didn’t see the KT implosion coming the way it did. But, his hype machine is now dead and we can just focus on the season instead of having to hear about his NIL, etc.
The OL simply can’t compete with an elite team. But, KT’s biggest mistakes came with him having plenty of time. Just a terrible, terrible effort.
We can only hope that we bootstrap ourselves up and the bye weeks heals us up a little.

I thought this was our best shot in years. I did over estimate what our D is capable of. They could have pounded it down our throats all day if they had so wanted to.
My hope was that we'd be throwing into the end zone to tie as the game was ending.
Nope, I knew we weren't going to win. Tried to tell some guys earlier this week to temper their expectations. It was worse than I would've expected but losing is what I fully expected. History isn't on our side.
i knew we were going to lose....its why i didnt go and gave away my gridiron club tickets to friends....our injuries weren't sensationalized enough after Missouri game, and bama has looked damn near all world their last couple of games....annnnnnnnd we are poor ole mithippi state....bama is probably second best in sec right now behind UGA......
This is what I think most of us wanted to see a competitive performance. We just looked pooorly with a few outliers.
Arnette’s defense sucks against top 25 offenses and we don’t have line of scrimmage talent. Go recruit and getting a defensive coordinator it’s not rocket science. But at the end of the day we are just bamas bi*** cause we get scared like leach said and turn into a bunch a pu*****
