aubaseball 2,613 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Grew up in Tuscaloosa and disliked them my entire life, but I know when I see the best team in 2020 I need to give them some props. Not that I cared who they played, but I thought Clemson could have given them a better game. Clemson wasn’t going to win either, but I thought it would have been a better game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What drove me crazy is that if we could beat him, how in the world did we lose other games against Georgia, Tennessee, in South Carolina? Of course every team wants the success that Alabama has but it has ruined football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shift 350 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Wait, is this what happens when you hire a quality coach and turn the program over to them? Huh...is that how that works? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaldEagle 9 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Mark Emmert(and Myles Brand before him) stood by and allowed this to happen beginning over a decade ago. There was clear evidence that Bama was cheating and stockpiling talent for years but the NCAA just sat back and let them keep reeling in #1 class after #1 class. Now you see where it has all led. Who wants to watch a sport where one team has all of the top talent? Sure Clemson and UGA have made up ground just because Bama can only take 25 guys a year but there is nothing even remotely resembling parity in the sport anymore. I’ve said for years that it’s a miracle that they ever lose a game. How Saban lost to Gus Malzahn 3 times with 3x the talent is beyond me. I will still watch AU games and pull for my school but it’s clear that college football is on the decline and it’s not going to rebound any time soon. The NCAA should have put a stop to this before it got to this point but they chose not to and now, we all get to watch the sport slowly fade into irrelevance.

Yeah, it's a mistake that will eventually correct itself, so that no other team will be able to repeat Bama's success. And that's both a good and sad thing. Meaning the Bama dynasty will come to an end. But Auburn, nor anyone else, will never be as fortunate as them. 😃 and ☹ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drsteve87 91 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 20 years ago it was FSU. They had 14 10+ win seasons in a row!! Then there was Oklahoma in the 50's and 60's. There was no CFP back then so we'll never know how they stack up against the current programs. Seems like every 20-30 years there is a dynasty that will never be equaled. This is just another of those dynasties and it too will fade into the muddied waters of which dynasty was the best of all time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has never, in my opinion been, and will probably never be again a program as dominant as Bama. There dominance can't end soon enough, for me. They are the definition of a dynasty. So sad that it's Auburn's biggest rival. Of all the schools in Division I, why did it have to be them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbird 60,529 Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Alabama plays beautiful football on both sides. I hate bama, but I love watching them play. Personally I have learned a lot of things from Saban and his innovations to the game starting from his time at LSU. If interested, here is his LSU 2001 defensive playbook. It's considered one of the foundational pillars of modern defenses. 2001-LSU-Defense-Nick-Saban.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, it's as much Emmert's dynasty as it is Saban's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t take a brain surgeon to figure out most of UAT’s teams are near or above the NFL salary cap. It’s not necessarily cash though. Tua’s folks still live in Alabama?

They have elite talent, 2-3 deep, and have obtained it with methods that would land any other school on probation I think. But, they are disciplined, incredibly well-coached, don’t talk a bunch of trash for the most part.....I still hate them but grudgingly admire the hell out of them at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
