OT: CFP Championship.. Saban, Sanders, oh my….

Saban is probably going to make an 11th hour pitch to get Bama into the championship game tonight ahead of TCU.
January 9th, 2023 at 6:06 PM ^
or ahead of Georgia
or perhaps that they should cancel the game and just crown Bama as the champ.

“You can ask Vegas right now, okay? We would be favorites over TCU. That’s all I’m saying, okay?”
January 9th, 2023 at 6:43 PM ^
Well, he does have a point. I mean who would be favored?
January 9th, 2023 at 7:23 PM ^
Who was favored in our game against TCU? Who was favored in our game against OSU?
I don't care who would be favored. If he wants to be in the championship, his teams should win the games they played.

Yet a new reason not to watch and devise a fake a work related injury side hustle just for kicks. Only putrid projectile vomit on the expn execs could adequately express my distain.

Ill watch for a few minutes on my phone, but it’s opening night of the chili bowl (one of most prestigious open wheel dirt races).
January 9th, 2023 at 6:25 PM ^
Meh. I'm bitter. We should be playing tonight.
Played our worst game of the year and some shit luck and key injuries on top of it all added up to another UM disappointing bowl game.
Really suck to not be getting hyped for a possible National Title.
January 9th, 2023 at 9:06 PM ^
Bitter as well however when you implode in EVERY facet of the game you should be watching from home and sick to your stomach.

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I think Saban is FANTASTIC on TV.
Loved Bob Knight (most of the time) and Coach K is great as well.
Can't stand all 3 as coaches, but the shit they see and say is +1,000,000 Informative. It's a clinic.
Anyone have that clip from Saban earlier in the year breaking down how they made a key stop? I think it may have been against Texas A&M.
Listening to those 3 guys reminds you of how little we know about the game.
Saban is A+ TV when he's doing some kind of film review.
Another unpopular opinion that even I won't admit to myself. *Whispers* Urban Meyer isn't terrible. I watched him break down Michigan during the MSU weekend and it was like, "damn, you're good." He knew damn near everything about Michigan as he sat with Dinardo in the film room. He was basically talking about why our running attack was so unstoppable and why he didn't think MSU had a chance.
If he ever retires, Belichick is another one. I feel like if he ever let it loose and just wanted to nerd out with the TV...he'd be an unbelievable watch.
Watching him basically be the "Oh my God, I'm bout to bust!" meme while talking about Ed Reed baiting Peyton Manning, never gets old.
January 9th, 2023 at 7:17 PM ^
I think that Belichik would spontaneusly combust if he said more than two complete sentences in a row in front of a microphone or a camera. I agree 100% that he's surely a brilliant football mind with incredible insight - but I just can't imagine him ever talking for a living. Which is too bad and our loss.

weird off topic point - it's weird to me to see Deion referred to as "Sanders." Yes it's his name, but Deion or Prime or Primetime have sorta become his de facto names that are more recognizable/distinguishable than Sanders. OP didn't do anything wrong, just my brain works in a weird way

Are you channeling Dick Enberg or something?

The more TCU gets embarrassed, the more our coaches should be embarrassed. Might go down as one of the worst coaching jobs against an inferior opponent in history.
January 10th, 2023 at 12:04 AM ^
I'm a cynic so I figure most of our coaching staff were too busy interviewing for new jobs to bother preparing for the Fiesta Bowl.
