Victory Thread: Alabama dominates UTSA

Alabama had a bit of a tune-up game against Texas-San Antonio today and had no trouble taking care of business, 97-55. This game was never going to be close unless Alabama played their absolute worst, but that doesn’t mean it was pretty from the start. The Tide came out firing from three point range per […]

9 “whatever” charts from the SECCG loss

Good day and Roll Tide. Alabama managed to get to the SEC Championship Game in Kalen DeBoer’s second year; that has to have some value, but they did very little with it, putting on an embarrassing display in a 28-7 loss to the Georgia Bulldogs.

After yesterday’s debacle, it was largely assumed that Alabama would drop at least one spot in the College Football Playoff rankings, needing to sweat out the committee’s decision. As it turns out, the SEC Championship Game made no difference to either participant. Georgia is still the 3-seed in the upcoming tournament and will enjoy a […]

Initial Impressions from the SEC Championship Game

There is no way to sugarcoat what we witnessed yesterday. Georgia looked like a team that’s ready to compete for a national title, and Alabama looked like the team that lost to Oklahoma and barely survived Auburn.

SEC Championship 2025: Second Half Discussion thread

Alabama limped into halftime with a 14-0 deficit vs Georgia. While the Tide defense is playing at a level that can hang with any offense in the country, the Tide’s offense looks like they’re doing their best to make a case to get left out of the playoffs. Essentially, Alabama’s two good plays of the […]

FLIP: 4-Star OL Spurns LSU, Rolls with the Tide

When LSU dismissed Brian Kelly, that also meant OL coach Brad Davis was out. Davis had been the main recruiter for 4-star Bryson Cooley out of Laurel, Mississippi.

2025 SEC Championship Preview: The Georgia Defense

Georgia’s defense is one of the better ones in the country – let’s get that out of the way first. They’re not putting up absurdly high tackle for loss numbers like Oklahoma or ridiculous stuff rates like Auburn, nor do they have the lockdown secondary metrics like Alabama. But they’re very good in pretty much […]

2025 SEC Championship Preview: The Georgia Offense

We are all for not repeating effort in the parts, and with Alabama going for a rematch with Georgia only 2 months after their last win, there isn’t a whole lot that’s changed.
