    No kidding! We are catching Tennessee at the right time, and Tennessee is catching us as everyone that was injured will be back. That said, you don't need Kamara to run all over our defense.

    Random hypo:

    Let’s say Saban retires within the next decade (seems pretty youthful or whatever but idk 74 is old). If Clemson continues along the way they have the last few years, do we think Dabo would leave for that job or continue at clemson? Dabo's been at Clemson almost double the time he was at Bama and has turned them into a comparable national power, but Bama is Bama and his alma mater. I feel like he'd probably leave for it but idk.

    Why would he leave Clemson when he has such an easy path to a bowl game every season?

    I tend to agree. That being said, alma maters have pull and Bama is arguably the most prestigious program of all time and would likely pay him more. Additionally, as we've seen the last few years, Bama has a pretty damn easy path to a bowl game every season haha, despite being in the toughest division in the sport.

    Baka has such an easy path to a bowl. All he has to do is convince the top recruits each year they will get playing time and eventually to the NFL. It's such a system plus bowl games are easy to get to.

    No doubt in my mind Dabo would accept the Bama job if offered to him. Did you not see him gushing about Alabama during all the college football playoff media coverage? I think he even admitted that Bama is the only school he loves more than Clemson.

    But as a Bama fan, I cannot stand Dabo and hope there are better coaches available than him once Saban is done.

    Did one of our coaches say something about the officiating that game? Hadn't heard.

    Clemson is not a comparable national power. I wouldn't even say they are comparable to Ohio State or Michigan. But please my god make Dabo come to Alabama.

    We had Dabo's agent come speak to our class today and he said the only school Clemson's afraid Dabo would leave them for is SC and i had to snort back the laughter

    Is his agent implying that Dabo is a really big idiot?

    Dabo is a great coordinator of all things football, and a very good cheerleader. Alabama will be paying their offensive and defensive coordinators a lot of money (more than they do now) if they hire Dabo to compensate for how much Dabo does not add to the actual coaching equation. This is probably a completely biased opinion though because I hate Clemson.

    Bama should hire Bret Bielema, would be great for everyone but Bama

    Can someone please explain the Dabo hate to me? I've mentioned this before, but I don't really get it.

    When exactly did I say that? What exactly was incorrect about saying the SEC west is more difficult than the ACC?

    What a garbage post about me.

    You have last year to hang over them, you'll be fine haha.

    Real nervous about Wisconsin today. But dammit if we win one of the next two then we are championship bound.

    In their eyes, past history can only be talked about when it favors them.

    I've never wanted an upset so much in my life.
