Bottom line for any team that plays Bama, if you can't play defense like them, you're never going to beat them, and we all knew OU couldn't come close to playing like them.

Not to be negative, but im at the bama vs oklahoma game...bama is 3-4 team but the way the switch fronts and do sub packages is crazy. We have to get more creative with our schemes...cant just sit in base the whole damn game! Maybe they dont think they have the personel yet?

Would rather get just a few of those type guys sprinkled in with what we have now.

Is this where Saban calls Sabo and says, "That's not an butt wuppin. THIS is a butt wuppin!"

Where's Bookie?

This reminds me of our BCS Championship against Miami. We had the Heisman winner, but Miami was just way more talented at every other position.

Sooner lineman talks smack after OU finally scores. Gets unsportsmanlike penalty.

Saban has been at Alabama for 10+ years, the groundwork for what they want to do is well established. We on the other hand need some stability if we want to do the same things.

Alabama plays like they practice, and more than a few times this year they had 100 play-plus scrimmages on Thursdays, that's the difference between them and most other programs. OU has talent galore on defense, they are poorly coached and prepare that way, and it shows tonight.

You are behind the times. It is not just about substitutions and packages. Bama plays different defenses on each side of the field.

Are you saying Nebraska stays "base" the whole game? The first few games was one blitz after another until teams figured out what was coming. If you have the studs you can arranged them in lots of different ways and still win.

On all these cute plays Nick is running with Tua at WR, why not knock the kid on the line? I know it’s a little dirty but within 5 yards, it’s legal right? I mean nothing too cheap, but he’s got a bum ankle so I’d flex so muscle on him

I’d love to see OU come back. I was in New Orleans when Bama was there to play LSU. My god their fans are absolutely brutal.

I love how Nick Saban is just blowing up on sideline and players just walk by and do not turn their heads to look at him.

that false start brought on what some of us know as a vainer, & I mean we got a full on vainer from Saban on that one! okay, but is 31 or 35 very material at this point? OU isn't near the threat here that say Arkansas State, Missouri, Mississippi State, Tennessee, or oh yea The Citadel would be.......
