Saban has been totally out coached! Oregon state Knew the plays before Tigers called them.( Oregon St was burned by Cal. today) tommy Tubbs. owns Saban (watch replay of game and notice Aubbies have control the whole game) UG spanked LSU head to toe . saban did not motivate tigers for this game.... I do not understand how this can be a rebuilding year! So many great reruiting classes and we do not have a QB? Never seen a team fall this far in 1 off season. looks like it back to the indepence bowl for now . If were lucky well see peaches.
You can bash the coach all you want but don't forget that this team is young @ QB, RB, WR and the D is young overall. NS is the best @ finding talent and a NC coach.
I don't see it as Saban being out coached. I see it as the team being totally out played. No doubt about it... They've been waiting on this day for a while and they were ready for it.
Try having a freshman QB and WR's for starters and an under-achieving kicking game and defense for starters. Oh there is MR? Oh yeah, now we have a kicking controversey. I can't blame the coaches for missing extra points and the turnovers or the lack of execution. The players have to have some kind of responsibility. The mighty Gators had there problems last year with a freshman QB etc..
UG has a Freshman RB that stomped our ass today! They also lost players early to the draft. They also lost their kicker.. Their coach made sure to fix all these issues before season started. Everyone knows JR is the future of this team.. why doesnt he start and finish? whats up with Randall in early and Russell in when the game is on the line? the bottom line is Saban hardheaded. all of this crap is messing up the team.
Georgia also had a better QB that is a senior, there defense was also much better than ours. Our whole D played like a bunch of freshman today. I think we would've lost today with Matt Mauck @ QB because our D was just that bad. Our coaches were able to fix things after the Florida game last year and they are the same as last year. Maybe they will fix things now and we will win out. Remember when we lost to Ole Miss a few years ago and ran the table also? they fixed it then as well. So what makes you think they can't fix it now, we only have 2 loses. If we can win out we will be fine and if we can't its always next year! i don't think JR should've finished then if he gets hurt what are you going to say? Saban should've taken him out? at this point let MR have mop up duties and lets work on the present and the future at the same time
the bottom line is Saban hardheaded. all of this crap is messing up the team. I have to agree the lack of a leader being named at QB showed how much it can affect a team mentaly after a while. I do believe saban dropped the ball on this one
This all starts with the lines. They were totally dominated today. We don't have the Stephen Peterman/Chad Lavalais type to get everyone going. When Seniors like Ben Wilkerson are playing bad, you can't expect the Freshmen QBs & WR to have good games. That's where I lay the blame--they know the Saban way and were supposed to be a strength. That being said, I still think we win at least 7, and could get 9. 9 Wins gets us to Cotton or Citrus. Then, look out next year. GEAUX TIGERS
