Bama vs. LSU

[RWS]

"We have never really developed to be as good a team as we can be, and to be as good a team as we are capable of," Coach Nick Saban said. "For me as a coach, I have always talked about playing to a standard. I have always talked about being the best you can be. We're still going to work hard to get this team to be just that, and I think it will take a commitment on all the players' part."

Not exactly "throwing the players under the bus". I mean, if saying your team didn't play as well as they could have and it needs to be fixed is throwing your players under the bus, then any coach that has lost a game is doing it as well.

You may be right but this is classic Saban talking circles around himself. 400 words that don't mean shit. BORING!

I don't know what comment you are talking about specificaly, but in general, any of our fans that now think the sky is falling need to wake the fuck up. Like I said after the USCe loss, anybody who thought we would repeat and run the table this year is setting themselves up for a letdown. Much like you usually don't see the success we had last year with a new QB (or this year with AU/Newton), you just can't lose as much as we did on defense and run the table, much less repeat as national champs. Hell, UF couldn't even do it with Tebow. Pre-season, I figured at least 3 losses this season. So far, it looks like I'm on target. 

So, "pre-season, I figured AT LEAST 3 losses this season. So far, it looks like I'm on target", means watch out for MSU, GSU & AU? Gotcha.

Btw, wrong quote dumbass.  It's the quote about "people on the outside" expecting great things from this year's team and having high expectations and/or hopes of great things and how it's affected the players and caused them to not focus...then he went on to explain how or what he trys to teach them, basically saying "I try to teach them to not listen, but they still do and it's not my fault that a semi ra-tard punched us in the face and out coached the players."

You're the dumbass who hasn't even put the quote on here. I already said I don't know what specific quote you are talking about. If I had to guess, it had something to do with expectations and addressing the expectations of those outside the program that Alabama would run the table again. Just a guess. Please be for posting the quote. As far as that affecting the team? Who knows. Having ESPN do a special on your team can give you a little bit of the big head. So can being ranked #1 in the country. So can hearing from ESPN every 2 minutes about how good you are and how you will dominate everybody. Ever heard of a team "getting full of themselves"?

Yes, that's the gest of it, but I thought you just said you didn't know what was being talked about.  I guess you've become so accustomed to being thrown under the bus by your prick of a HC and hearing him constantly throw you favorite players under the bus, that you're immune to it.
 
And what dumbass decided that it would be a good recruiting tool to have ESPN do a weekly special about your team....copying Auburn Everyday.

Bryant: owned up to his losses- ultimately his fault
Saban: indoctrination gone awry- not his fault

Where is the quote? And the reason I can guess the gist of it is because every fucking coach in America has said the same thing.

The quote was in his presser following the game...I'm guessing wherever you pulled those other quotes from, they omitted the part where he throws the fanbase and the players under the bus.  And NO, not "every fucking coach in America" has blamed the fanbase for a loss.  Again, that's Coach BeLittle's MO.  The blame rest squarely on his tiny shoulders, but you'll never hear him take the blame for not having his team prepared, being outcoached by another coach, and out played....I'm sure you'll hear the quote on Fbaum on Monday.
