ROLL TIDE!

I told my Tide friends before the game, I hoped LSU challenged us... it wasn't a popular idea but I really did feel like we needed a challenge as a team... a hard-fought game where we struggled and maybe even had to come from behind to win. I just felt like we needed that from a mental standpoint to keep our heads on straight. We never were behind but boy were we challenged!

2007 was the last time we went into the locker room at halftime with a goose egg. That was a helluva streak that was broken. But man... that Tide Defense! WOW!

The defense was amazing. Fournette was held to 35 yards, and their passing game was all but stopped. And LSU came in with some fire going. They had every intention of beating Alabama.
 
And the last time someone held Bama to 10 points or less, was LSU on Nov 5th 2011.
 
Alabama has been ranked #1 in 33% of the 132 games played since Saban took over as head coach.

That is an impressive tidbit.
 
Yesterday's victory gave Nick Saban 41 wins coaching a #1 ranked team. He now holds the record, with Woody Hayes and Bobby Bowden tied for second.
 
Hell yeah!! ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!!
Michigan better beat Ohio state.

And my highschool lost the state championship yesterday.

But Western Michigan university is still undefeated. Maybe they should be in the final 4. Lol
 
No Touchdown November!

The Crimson Tide played 4 teams (2 ranked) in November. Not a single TD was scored against us!!
 
If Alabama wins out, we will be the first team in history to go 15-0. Clemson came close last year, but finished 14-1.

Roll Tide!!
 
Jalen Hurts just continues to impress me. He will end up being the greatest QB to ever play at Alabama... and that's saying something. He is like a smarter version of Cam Newton in my opinion.

A lot of my friends gave the backup QB grief when he transferred early this season... I think he saw the writing on the wall. That was a testament to how phenomenal this guy is.

He is already #2 in TDs.
 
He is a little slow starting sometimes. He does make some mistakes. But man.... when this guy gets a little more experience reading defenses under his belt (comes with time)... he's going to be Superman wearing crimson!

I am impressed with his composure. Go into Knoxville and do great. Go into Baton Rouge at night and stay calm?

Interesting wrinkle. Kiffin is interviewing for the HC job at Houston and the OC job at LSU. Losing your OC just before the playoffs is probably not what most people anticipate. But Saban? He is the one who got Steve Sarkasian on the payroll and in the system. I'll take it. Might make planning defensive schemes if you have a new brain behind the brawn.
 
The 2016 SEC Championship is in the books. The Crimson Tide DESTROYED those gators.

Defense looked great! FL ended up with ZERO rushing yards.
