Let me just say thanks to you guys for not making me watch that bama defense play against oregon. Oregon would have scored 73.

From the bama perspective, a lot of people are blaming lane kiffin. Bama put up 35 points. I think it is on Kirby smart and the defense. Bama was manhandled and outsmarted by OSU. The scoreboard was closer than the game.

Good game! OSU kept bama on their heels and rattled sims. OSU neutralized Cooper by getting to Sims. Textbook.

I don't think either fan base felt like it was our year at the start of the season. I wouldn't be surprised if we got to do it again next year.

Just for fun. A woman on my Facebook said the bama team got the [Mark May]s from eating too much seafood. Then she started talking about how she got the [Mark May]s in Florida and there is no way she could have played a football game. Some bama fans are crazy.

Derrick Henry got 15 touches. That's criminal. OSU hit on some big plays, but I was still impressed with Alabama's defense. I'd be way more pissed at Kiffin than Smart.

What I have to say is we are NOT going to lose this next game. Oregon vs OSU... in texas.. Hmmm half way between both... this crowd will be fucking 80% OSU baby. We will gain recruits because of our performance tonight and next week.

Side note- What a game by Elliot and Lee.

Particularly Lee... What a game. He was so secure in his read, his tacking, and his blitzing. This is all with Bosa being keyed on.

Next game. Fucking forget it.... We are winning it all

Curtis had a heck of a game too.

Cash! Thank you for being here and being such a positive addition to the boards!

I can sympathize with the disappointment, as you well know, but as you said... here's hoping this isn't our last date!

Truthfully I'm not disappointed. I think bama reached their full potential. Bama played a pretty good game compared to what we have done this season. Could have done better. But hey. I can say I'm disappointed for Blake sims.

I really felt like we would have been embarrassed by oregon. OSU saved us from that.

To be honest, I can't root for OSU against Oregon because I hate urban Meyer and like mariota, but good luck!

Still in complete disbelief. I thought we were screwed when we went down 21-6. To see this team fight back like that...damn.

I got nervous on the first down pass with less than 2 minutes to go, but then I realized, we aren't playing Tressellball anymore, go for the throat if that fails, trust the defense.

The defense was stellar overall today, two picks, one when we desperately needed it. That type of effort was amazing, the offense chose the right time to click and get moving in the second quarter.

Overall, great comeback, also, on a different note, good job by MSU and Whiskey, the Big Ten earned a lot of respect today.

No doubt we will be dogs against the Ducks, but that happened a few years ago as well, and we know how that turned out.
