Things I Ponder While Watching Too Much Football

[Snaggletiger]

***28 out of 35 for 363 yards  5 TD’s and 0 INT’s.  Were those the Bowl Game numbers for Caleb Williams? No. How about Jayden Daniels? Nope.  Drake Maye? Negative.  Joe Milton, maybe? Pffft…

All of the above opted out for the NFL Draft.  Those stats belong to one, Bo Nix, who opted in for the final game of his college career.  I don’t begrudge any of them, that’s the nature of the business.  Kudos to Mr. Nix.

***Just curious, but why even have a mouthpiece dangling from your face mask, and flopping around like my Johnson when I run, if you're not going to put it in your mouth?  The mouthpiece, not my Johnson.  But, for $20.00….just sayin’.

***In my best Jerry Seinfeld voice.  So, what’s the deal with football pants these days?  Sorry, I can’t get used to players looking like they just pulled on a pair of spandex shorts to play foosballz in.

***Don’t answer this, but who thought it would be a good idea to go to a 10 commercial break after one team scores, come back to show the kick off sailing through the end zone, then immediately go to another 10 commercial break?

***The previous play is under further review.

***Why in the hell was that play not reviewed?

***Can anyone field a punt?  Anyone?

***Did I leave the iron on?

I'm also pondering if I should get the t-shirt that came out last night.

4th and 31

Simple, yet drives the point home.

The Thousand dolla band played the Eli call of the 4th & 31 during the halftime performance. Daniel Moore has a painting of the play in the works for the huge comeback victory over a 7 loss football team. Karma fucked Bama up for that bullshit.

Well said. We need a no nonsense guy around here with some class. We don't have any as you already know.

I have many bammer honk friends.  On today posted a video on the book face “god bless these sons of Bama showing class in defeat..”

The entire video was of their players waddling off the field while Michigan players sought them out and got perfunctory nods. Not a single one looked a one of the wolverines in the eye. Toward the end one of the departing bammers was screaming “fuck this shit”. 

Such class.

***i like flopping johnsons in my mouth

***Don’t answer this, but where are my balls?

Great thoughts snags.

Saban defended the last play call but you have to give your best player a chance to run or pass. There's an strong chance that the refs don't call interference on the last play but you always have a pick play to get a guy open. So "panic after a low snap" should be the Daniel Moore moment.

And yeah there were a few players that met the victors but mostly it was a sad display of classless, poor sportsmanship by Alabama.

It's also no lock that Lil Nicky doesn't get an interference call if Michigan is draped over a receiver before the ball arrives. Can't end on a penalty.
One more shot at it.

It was a run-pass option. The back in motion was running a sort of screen (had blockers set up). The snap was low, Milroe freaked out, and the Michigan defensive line (especially number 5) shoved the OL back into Milroe. There was nowhere to go and no time to throw.

Saban was defending his OC, the Center/OL, and his QB. He knows they got whipped up front. They go whipped all day save for 10 minutes of gametime. They did not deserve to win and he knows it.

Yes they did get whipped up front for most of the game.
Tough pill.

They just need a couple more talented 'cruitin classes to make up the deficit they had out there on the field against Meechigan.

And it wouldn't have mattered either. Watch the swing pass option....they had him covered well. Neither option was gonna work. Mich had them defended well all the way around.

Agreed. Michigan and Alabama traded timeouts looking at formations for each other. Michigan's DC and staff adjusted better and were ready for everything. Blowing it up from the front was a boss move by their guys. They wanted that.

I think those inbreds sent death threats or "go keeeel yoreself now looooser!" messages to the whole offensive line non stop Tuesday.

Yeah, on the replay, any chance Meelrow had to get through, or bounce it outside, got BLOOWWWN UP, SIR, by his own lineman getting BLOOWWWN UP, SIR.  Hardest tackle all day.
