Bama Panther

This offensive play calling is offensive.

I wasn’t watching the earlier part of the game, so I didn’t see that drive.

Had the Panthers gone for a TD and scored, they would have been up 12-7, contingent on the outcome of the two-point conversion. If they miss the conversion, an Atlanta TD wins it outright. Up until Ridder’s INT, Atlanta moved the ball with ease the drive before the GWD. With 1st and Goal at the 1 yard line with 1:41 left, you have to keep the ball out of Atlanta’s hands at that point. You simply do not give the Falcons the ball with the chance to win/tie.

I was not aware of the wind. I currently live in Korea and woke up (14 hours ahead of EST) to only catch the last 10 minutes of the game. Definitely saw the rain in the broadcast but didn’t see or hear anything about the wind.

As a Bama grad, I’m a Bryce fan, and I hope he figures this thing out. I was pleased with that last drive. However, I still want to see more out of his passes. The ~20 yarder to Tremble to get off the goal line took forever to get to him, and the pass to Minot was just a wounded duck with a nice adjustment (granted, the rain may have caused the ball to come out funny). I do hope Bryce and the team can build in this.

That is not what was going on at all. They did the right thing to drain the clock and attempt the field goal.

What kind of dumbarse play all is that in 4th and 1?

My take: 1. Michigan 2. Washington 3. FSU 4. Texas 5. Bama 6. Georgia 7. OSU 8. Oregon SEC misses out in the final year of the four team playoff.

I’d love to see Bama reestablish the run game on this drive. It would be nice to grind 5-plus minutes off the clock and get some more points on the board.

In that scenario, I think Bama and Georgia have to be out. While I’d hate it as a Bama grad, it would be the right thing to do.

Milroe is off on many of his throws today. He’s grown a ton as a QB this season. I hope that growth comes through over this last quarter.

I get what you’re saying, and I hope that is how it would happen. However, Texas looked absolutely dominant today. Despite their opponent being ranked at #18, I think that game immensely improved their chances of getting in.

I think Bama would get left out if they win a close SECCG and FSU wins the ACC. Just don’t think the committee would deny a big name like Texas.

I think Bama winning the SECCG would be the committee’s worst nightmare. Georgia has been so good for so long, how do you keep them out if they lose a close one? But how do you keep Texas out if Bama is in, given Texas’ big win in Tuscaloosa? The committee does not want to make that decision.

That’s my hope. First, Bama needs to beat Georgia, which is a tall task.

Even as a Bama alum, I believe if FSU and Bama both win, Bama gets left out. The last few weeks of Texas’ season left me some hope that Bama could get over the Longhorns based on recent play. Today’s game, however, removed that hope, as Texas destroyed Okie St.

How could I-35 get any worse? This is how.

I think people just want something to bitch about. All you hear today is “the dysfunction of the Panthers” due to the third head coach firing since Tepper bought the team. Should Rivers’s firing be counted towards the dysfunction when everyone wanted Rivera fired even before he was? Should the Rhule hiring be counted towards the dysfunction when he was one of the hot names on the coaching carousel that year? Should Rhule’s firing count when everyone wanted him fired the off-season before he was fired? Does Reich’s firing now mean dysfunction when, again, people have been clamoring for it for weeks? What’s the point of keeping Reich around if a firing is inevitable? Why not rip off the band-aid and start the recovery process? This fan base, and especially this board, just want something to bitch about. The great thing for them is they get to bitch with hindsight.

This thread is such ass. A bunch of people who have been clamoring for Reich to be fired pissed off at Tepper because Reich was fired.

Crazy poo always happens in Jordan-Hare though. Bad Auburn teams have beaten much better Bama teams many times there.

The Iron Bowl in Jordan-Hare is always crazy, crazy in the sense that a bad Auburn team can hang with a better Bama. If this is the Bama team that shows up for the SECCG, Georgia will roll (they may anyway).

Not even the end of the first quarter in the USC-Oregon game, and I’m already sick of the Fox crew’s knob slobbering “generational talent” comments about Caleb Williams.

I cannot believe players still do this. This one wasn’t even close either. He was at the 2 when he started dropping the ball. UW gets the safety right after though.

As a Bama grad, I like Bryce and want him to succeed. However, I’ll admit I was wrong in wanting him over Stroud, who has completely blown the doors off of expectations for his rookie season. He can be really, really special. I don’t have that same feeling about Bryce anymore.
