Prevent defense. Only prevents you from winning.

BUD!!!!!!

What the heck was that?!

You guys had em', but stopped playing defense on the last drive! Unfreakin' believable!

Was thinking the same thing when LSU was doing it. They should have kept playing how they were for most of the game.

Not very SECish!

Sorry bud... I was pulling for you guys. Freaking gumps.....

LSU had me excited for about 59 minutes...

It's cool, its does suck playing a game like that and losing, Until that last drive we held them to one pass completion for 0 yards in the second half.

It was good to see Ole Les try some trickeration again and see him opening up the play book. Gives me a lot of hope for next year considering all of those guys on Offense will be back.

I don't see how he was out coached...you must of been too caught up in that OSU/ASU game to realize that we shut them down in the first and 3rd quarter, that we put up 435 yards on the number 1 defense in the country, and that we were within 2 minutes from winning. McCarron put together a perfect drive their last possession and took the win, I wouldn't say coaching lost it. If anything their WRs making a few very tough catches and the WR on the last reception making 3 of out players miss a tackle while taking it into the end zone lost us the game.

He seems like such a liability. His clock management is famously bad. His fake fg call was so terrible. It was just comedy to watch these decisions he was making

bud: rather than the attempted FG, how about a punt, which forces bama to go long field. probably the best bama can do in that situation would be a tying FG, considering the tigers defense.

Really could have used Honey Badger on that last drive.

That I agree with you on. When we missed that FG I knew it was over. I would of punted the ball as well, but I don't get payed to make those decisions, people like Les that has taken us to two national title games and has beaten bama 4 out of 8 games even with the mighty Nick Saban at the helm does.

I guess what you have to take in consideration is our kicker is actually very good, one of the best in the nation, and can make those kicks , almost made that one, it was very close and I suppose the thought process was, "I have faith in my kicker and my defense, if we make it then they have to score a TD, field goal would be off the table and our defense was playing lights out."
