I have Optimism when it concerns Alabama Football. I Expect to WIN!
But I am also am a Realist.
The Facts on this Bama team Is-Although all mine or yours Expectations this Alabama Football team is very Average!
Looking at our schedule with the exception of Georgia of which I believe if we had to play them again we would get Brutalized Offensively, the rest of the teams on our schedule we beat or did not beat or very average.
Concerning the Barn game, Barn is a very young football team starting a Division Three QB that made some big time throws last night that helped Barn beat A&M, of which, is also very Average. And I though I would never say this but the Barn QB is a better passer than Milroe at this point of the season
My conclusion is this, Durkin will follow the same game plan Venables did. You can paint the rest of that picture based off last nights game.
I am not Optimist about the Barn game. Two very average football teams playing for nothing but PRIDE next Saturday. Wonder which team has the MOST PRIDE?

Truth is we are pretty average team. We have a physical QB that generally shines on lessor competition. But on stiff D he is below average.
Bill O’brian was right. He needs to find another position.
We won’t go with 15 because we fear the team would quit.

Defense is a mess and has been all year.
3rd and three the game is on the line. We all know the opponent is going to keep the ball in their best player’s hand.
Who, including my wife, 95 year old dad and the cat did not know Pavia was going to keep the ball in his hands. We played the same shat base D and he picks up 9 yards. Not 3 but 9. Why would the coaches not put 11 players on him? Why would 13 not just go after him forgetting everything else? So frustrating watching our defensive end crash down on Oklahoma running back and QB pulls it and runs for 7 yards. 10 times in a row. Who does not adjust to that? Us.
Punter sucks.

When Milroe went down I was actually hoping he was dinged up and not reenter.

I’m sick of politics and Bama football.

Let’s hope basketball can take the sting out.
