    "Humility is only a week away"……KPS, Did I mention that The Commodores are no longer the cellar dwellers of the SEC and son of a gun……TAM is #1 in the SEC with a 3/0 record

    I could be very wrong… & time will tell but I think Bama spent two weeks going over everything Georgia (to win 1 game) and not getting better as a team.

    The fire they had, how prepared they were and the play calling (including multiple trick plays up 3 scores) tells me the above.

    I wouldn’t be surprised, and this is pure speculation, if Saban heavily helped the new staff prepare for Georgia.

    Either way we lost. I think Bama loses at least 1 more in the regular season.

    Saban’s quote remains true. There is virtually no crowd noise or fan involvement. Obviously that doesn’t guarantee a win but if you look around that stadium, the crowd is 80% the opponent so that has almost no effect. Virtually no students show up for the games.

    Yes Vandy, Georgia is Alabama Superbowl. Can't wait to watch ESPN and Phil make up something and try to take up for their precious Tide. Lol. Go Dawgs

    Everybody keeps overlooking A&M, i wouldnt if i was the coach of an opposing team. Elko has did a great job of putting out the dumpster fire Dumbo Fisher started, and making A&M relevant again.I say they will beat Texas, after watching both teams play. I don't believe Texas would've manhandled a good Missouri team the way A&M did yesterday.

    Georgia's problems across the board for all games not just the Auburn game

    QB play: C- (Beck does not need to worry about a trip to NYC); Kentucky & Alabama games were atrocious

    RB play: D (no juice, no blocking); Nate Frazier (freshman) looks hungry; I would give him the nod over Etienne at this point

    WR play: B- (sure do miss Ladd); Dillon Bell is saving their hides so far; Smith needs better hands; Lovett needs to be better; are injury issues being masked?

    TE play: C- (yeah, BB spoiled all of us); Luckie showing spark (hope his shoulder is a quick mend)

    OL play: D

    DL play: F not enough junkyard dawg meaness; the blocked FG was a start

    LB play: D the edges are especially vulnerable; if the opponent has speed, we're chasing dust

    Secondary play: C- (too much toasting going on; need to tighten up); Dan Jackson playing like the veteran he is

    Special Teams: A- (the punt was our best play during the first half of Alabama game; Woodring has been solid; not sold on Evans)

    Coaching Staff: D- preparation and game day readiness continue to elude all from Smart to Bobo to Schumann to Robinson to Williams (and others that are unmentioned). The Dawgs just do not seem to be functioning as units. I attribute that to players executing and coaching staffs getting the TEAM ready for the next game.
