Also, count me in the group that thinks Bama got off light. We all said the guys needed to bring their A game to get the win, and the truth is... they weren't anywhere near their A game and still walked out with the W. More than enough points were left on the field.

Disagree, I don't care. Shot ourselves in the foot for half the game and still looked like the most dominate team on the field. A lot of that had to do with poor coaching decisions during crucial drives and bad field position that was made worse by the calls deep in our own territory, but I have no doubt that it could have been put away much sooner and looked like a blowout.

Was it my imagination or were the zebras staying over top of the ball while Bama ran in subs? Seemed like we were waiting on the ball quite a bit. Not that I think we were going uptempo but....

if the offensive team substitutes they do that to give the defense a chance to substitute.

If the offensive team does not sub anyone out they can snap it as fast as they want a la Oregon and the every 10 second thing

Finebaum knows what side his bread is buttered on. I think it's mostly an act... he's just a facilitator for all their stupid bs.
When you listen to him, he's not that unreasonable himself. He occasionally spouts some bs, but I think it's either a) not biting the hand that feeds; b) instigating and deliberately reinforcing irrational views down there.

The game had a similar feeling to MSU. Started off pretty underwhelming and feeling uncertain after a lot of mistakes... came back towards the end of the 1st half. If not for playing the entire 4th quarter in the shadow of their goalposts, the end score may have been closer to MSU too.
