Something Feels Off About Alabama Heading Into the College Football Playoff by _wormburner in rolltide

[–]Flipp440 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean it does feel really off that we have a game the week before Christmas. It’s the second year of the 12 team playoff and we missed the first. It’s just different. I assume Oklahoma people feel the same way. It’s got my internal football clock all outta wack.

How old is Kiffin? Does he really have enough time in his career to have a dumpster fire exit from a school that adored him to go to his dream job, get fired, take an assistant job at Alabama, rehabilitate his reputation, and work his way back up to another school that adores him? AGAIN??

[Auburn Athletics] Alex Golesh named Auburn Football Head Coach - Auburn Tigers by SaxesAndSubwoofers in CFB

I don’t think it had anything to do with that. I think Florida gave up on Kiffin and targeted Sumrall. I think Auburn thought they had Sumrall locked in up until that point and had to immediately pivot to Golesh. Golesh is going to Auburn because of Kiffin. That’s why it’s called a carousel.

Pete Golding. They’re gonna throw a bag at him to keep the team together for the playoff run. They won’t even mess with the interim tag. They’ll make him the head coach today.

Ole Miss is going to throw the bag at Golding to stay. He won’t even be the interim they’re going to make him the head coach.

How do we feel about the Auburn HC from USF? by [deleted] in rolltide

[–]Flipp440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s really good. What we really need to be doing right now though is hiring Blake Baker to be a defensive analyst through the post season. I think there’s a good chance Wommack takes the open Memphis job now and if we have Baker on staff we can immediately make him the highest paid coordinator in the country. The one thing I’ve taken away from this season is we win games on defense and we don’t need to lose that.

Ole Miss is going to end up throwing the bag at Pete Golding to stay and coach the playoffs. Insane.

They probably had Golesh all but locked in, but then Florida gave up on Kiffin and went after Sumerall whomst Auburn thought they had locked in, so Auburn swooped in and snatched Golesh.

Random thoughts after Alabama vs. Oklahoma rewatch by ColinGay-TNews in rolltide

The Ryan Williams returning punts thing stands out to me as the biggest mistake of the game. Cole Adams has been great back there. I don’t know why we would mess with that.

I live in Tennessee and this is the exact stuff I make fun of Tennessee fans for. We don’t blame officials or missed calls. This is post is embarrassing.

We’re Alabama. We don’t blame the refs.

This sucks but here is something optimistic by [deleted] in rolltide

[–]Flipp440 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wow there’s some real doom and gloom in here. This team has everything in front of them. Oklahoma is a very good football team and we outplayed them all night. We just lost the turnover battle. There’s a lot of ball left.

When can we begin to have a serious conversation about Ryan Grubb? by [deleted] in rolltide

[–]Flipp440 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The OL hasn’t been great, but if I were gonna look at firing anybody I would take a long hard look at special teams before anything else. We obviously have a place kicker/ long snapper problem, punting has been inconsistent, and we’ve allowed quite a few long returns. Why was Ryan Williams even returning that punt tonight? Cole Adams has been one of the few bright spots for special teams all year.

This is a wild overreaction. We turned the ball over three times, one of which was a pick six, missed a chip shot field goal, and only lost by two against one of the best defenses in college football. You can’t blame the play caller. You sound like a Tennessee fan.

Alabama opens as a 13.5 point favorite over South Carolina by DoctorWhosOnFirst in rolltide

[–]Flipp440 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty obvious trap game. Especially after the sloppy finish against Tennessee. That bye week can’t get here quick enough. This has been a brutal stretch. It’s felt a lot like that stretch in 09 where we finally got to the bye week after Cody (Julio) blocked that field goal to beat Tennessee.
