Let's kick this thing off.  I'm in front of my TV, chips and a plate of food within reach, and ready to see the Rams go down.

 :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

AJ is ready to pad his passing stats.  Hopefully Cooper is all well and ready to RUN.

:jump:  :jump:

Time to turn the Rams into Ewes.  :lol2:

ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!

Chechen what is for dinner? We got a lot of youngsters playing at DB, with all the injuries. The front 7 needs abig effort.

#+ #+

Me too.

Some casserole with lots of bacon, cheese, spaghetti, eggs, etc that Ms. LF made for us tonight.  
It's just 45 minutes from Tupelo, so I raced home and settled in my chair.  Anybody wanting to buy a knife tonight will have to wait until tomorrow!   :eyeroll:

I'm ready!  Chili is cooked, all necessary traditions have been taken care of! :)  RTR

Lady Terrie:  :toast4:

Can you mail some of that chili up here to Maryland?  :D

Christion Jones takes the kickoff to the 25.

Here we go.

Morning gentlemen. Roll Tide!

 :coffee2:

Kenny Bell for a catch, but no TD??   :o :o :o :o

OJ Howard is going to be GREAT for Alabama.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Morning to those in the Far East.

Morning phil. Good to see you up!

Wow, Joey Porter is a grad student assistant at CSU.

Oh not again.  :wall:

Hmmm, wide left on the 47-yard fg.   :wall: :wall: :wall:

 >:( >:( >:(

Well that was less than impressive.  :-\

Looking a bit ragged at the start. Glad we haven't had to try many FGs this year so far.

Running game getting zero help from the line.

Shanked that one.  >:(

LOL it might be a big mess by the time it gets there! 

I'm heading up that way next month - please make sure the weather isn't cold! :-D

Talk to Chech about the weather. Evidently he has an in with Chaac the weather god.  :lol2:

Where you coming when you get up here?

Lots of newbies on the field. Time for the, to shine.

Sunseri gets a crazy play already.

Vinnie!

Ok, here we go!

I swear, when the camera is rolling Vinnie makes some wild plays.  This time he jumped and blocked the pass back to the QB, then Vinnie tackled him for a loss.   :worship: :worship:

The Drake takes a loss.  Ugh. 

 >:( >:(

We'll this is not what we needed.

Nice coverage by Collins after the 48-yd punt. 

Looks like Vinnie will have to make the first TD.   ???

Great play by Collins though.  #+

Rockville area. Going to visit my grandson (oh, and my daughter/son in law) LOL

Good job Landon Collins. Now how about a TO for the defense.

We tend to start slow. Just give them 10 minutes or so and you'll see an explosion!

We need to wake up!

Geno Smith is playing.  FINALLY!

Okay, punt coming.  Christion Jones ready??

Fair catch.  BORRRRINNNNNGGGGG.

Rams came to play. Hope we decide to at some point.

Looks like some guys overslept today.

We're saving some energy to support Yeldon.

Did we do a pick the score this week?  :dunno:

Nope. At this pace, I say only 89-0 Bama.

DW!

Finally some life. Good catch by White.

Is there a reason why AC did not start. I think the secondary changes are to prove a point.

AJ threw Christion a medicine ball.

Christian just provided the spark we need!

Nice play by Jones! Half the CSU team couldn't tackle him!

Finally!

Bingo! That TD was a goodie.  #+

 #+ #+

DRAKE WITH THE TD!!!!! Maybe we woke up!

Whew.  I was worried we wouldn't score!







:hee hee:

Did ya'll see AJ give the Drake a good spanking after that TD?  What was that about?

No, what?

He went to he wrong side, but TD ANYWAY! #+

I didn't see. Did it look like he was angry?

SC. You have some splaining to do.

Yep, I just hit rewind.  He was reading him the riot act, made at least 2 points, (he counted them with his fingers) then spanked him pretty good.

I tried to figure out what he did, and I think he was running his mouth with #26 from Colorado State after the score.

It was awesome.  AJ is dealing out the spankings now.

Good screen by CSU.

Meanwhile, raining in Baton Rouge.   :popcorn2:

Yes, it was definitely not an "atta boy" spanking.

Seeing the picture of the sky over BDS almost just made me cry.  :'(

Give me a minute and I will put it on youtube.

Blocked punt ---- TD

:jump:  :jump:

 #+ #+  #+

Lee!!!  Oh my? That was pretty!   #+ #+

I think we're awake now!  :dance:

 :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

Great job special teams. Dillion Lee!!!!!!!!

Something wrong with Cooper? Also, what about Tenpenny, he looked good against VT.



 ???

Bad injury for Aub #89 (broken leg??).

Who is he, anybody?

Cooper's foot injury still nagging.

Stanford killing Arizona State: 20-0.

What happened?

Being taken off on a cart.  Looks like an air cast on his leg.

If I hear Matt Millen say one more time how we don't have a true pass rusher, I am going to mail him highlights of his time at GM of the Lions.  >:(

You're going to mail him a blank DVD?

Touche!  :lol2:   I guess I should have said lowlights.

He is Jaylon Denson; it's a bad knee injury.  :pray:

Never like to see that. Prayers for that young man.  :pray:

Nice carry by TJ!

He's from Hoover.  Either Jr or senior this year.

Yeldon is a beast!! #+

TJ!!!   #+

Whew, talking about just sneaking that one across.

Cade Foster finally hits one!

Well done, Cade.  #+

Not pretty, but it counts.

He's a big junior wide receiver (6'3") from Hoover. Highly rated out of high school.

LSU 14 - Barn 0.  Early in first after a Aubie fumble.

LSU 14 Barn 0. Auburn looking really bad.


 :popcorn2:

Aubs fumbled a punt snap at their 10.

The LSU (criminal rapist) running back ran it in on first down:  14-0.

Dangerous play by Christion Jones.

The computer-fantasy-imaginary #1 team in the nation is being handled by LSU.

Per ESPN Cooper nursing toe injury.

It's nice to see OJ Howard getting so many opportunities today.

Yep. We probably won't see him in this one. Need him for OM.

The AJ spanking video is up on youtube.  As soon as youtube finishes processing it I will post it here on a new thread.

Barn burning down. 21-0.

LSU looks good, real good.  Up 21-0 on Auburn.

Yep, looks like Colorado State is better than Auburn.   :lol2: :lol2:

Barn just threw interception with 11:53 left in in 2nd quarter. About to get ugly.

Definitely have a better defensive line.  Hill is just waltzing through huge holes in the Barn D

And LSU might be better than Alabama.

:popcorn2:

Don't understand that 3 and inches call by CSU.  ???

What an Interception!!

:dunno: :dunno:  Aren't you wanted in the YouTube room?   :lol2:

AJ has made a couple of great throws today.

ESPN2, Terrie.   :dunno:

Or time out! :)

This just in...AJ is a heck of a qb.

I know! I'm watching it LOL

This is the best looking offense series so far.  :popcorn2

Uh well almost.

Could be.  Bama is missing a few OLine and DBs from last year; might make it hard to stay at the top of the heap.

But that was a dumb throw.

Wrote too soon.  >:(

AJ-the-gunslinger is back.

Yeah, I didn't like it as soon as AJ threw it. Those are the ones that almost always turn out bad.

Man, this game is frustrating. I'm surprised CNS hasn't started pulling his hair out yet.

I know I am!!!

 :toast3:

We are playing yucky!

(http://www.glamour.com/health-fitness/blogs/vitamin-g/1014-tums-infections_vg.jpg)

I know someone named Nicky who won't be happy.

Bama still looks flat tonight.  That's probably a good thing -- this team needs to be fired up for Ole Miss.

(http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/~/media/Images/POD_Images/ManFlu.ashx)

Hello?  Defense?

True.  But it'd be nice if we'd at least win tonight!

(http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b586/lordofpugs/null_zps8240bc8b.jpg)

Yes Matt Millen, we know for the 15th time that Alabama does not have a true pass rusher.  :wall: :wall: :wall:

we are not in the same class as LSU. We will be lucky to beat Ole Miss this year. Talk of a three peat is premature.

This game reminds me of Western Ky last year. Just win and get off the field.

Just playing uninspired. What is going on with this team??

Here is a telling stat. We have had almost no negative plays tonight and our offense is 0 for everything on 3rd down. We are more than asleep. We are comatose.

Never fear - we ARE the best team in college football. We will win

Don't kid yourself. CSU is not a good team. We are not the best team in the country if we struggle against this team. Oregon would wipe the floor with us.

#+ #+

dd4bama??   :o :o

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Our power running game is non-existent. Frustrating.


 :wall:

If you picked over 300 yards of offense for Bama, you lost!   :unsure: :unsure:

I here ya.  :wall:

Well, the crummy O-line has reappeared, not to mention the 2 yard pass.



 :-X

Heard a few boo birds after that last drive.

Is it the game plan or execution??? :dunno:

Again I say yuk! Can we have just a little inspired football.

I'd say a little of both.

Probably both.
Without execution, though, no plan is going to work.   :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

Is Saban keeping the lid on the O to make McElwain look good and maybe get him a pay raise?



 :tinfoil:

Last week may have taken something out of us. More than we expected I am seeing. RTR!

Our OL is getting abused. This team quit on this game in the first quarter. They are playing like they have already won the game. Where is the leadership? Where are the players getting in people's faces? Do they even care if they win this game or not?

These bums are stinking up the place..reckon they all got hangovers?
Mac looks like he is playing a HS game.

There is more to this whole thing perhaps?  :tinfoil:

The only positive for this team tonight is the blocked punt. I hope we drop in the polls. This team has that same entitlement mentality they did in 2010.

Like we lose this game to make Ole Miss overconfident?  :tinfoil:

Nice pass. 
:jump:

 #+ #+ #+

Finally. SOMETHING to cheer about! #+

And.... I yelled very loud at the TV....

Touchdown! That is more like it.

About time!!  #+ #+

Could be worse, guys. UCONN leads Michigan 14-7.  :o

Tough break, soft team.   :lol2:

Christion Jones has made several risky decisions on punt returns tonight. Glad none of them have turned out poorly.

Could this team have put all their effort into the A&M game, thinking that their season would only be one game? They just don't have their minds on this game. Just like they didn't have their minds on the Va Tech game.

We just look out of sync.

Did y'all see where AJ had the ball when he was almost tackled?

Whew!!

Tide has 52 yards rushing. Incredible.



 :deadhorse:

These are virile young men.  Football ranks well below their focal point tonight.

LSU 21 Cow Sodomites 7

#+ #+ #+

No first downs. 52 yards rushing. And we are winning by 18. What does that say?? ???

No excuses. The Bama O-line stinks and the DB's are still shaky.


 :facepalm:

We're playing a lousy team so we are lucky this time.


 :popcorn2:

Bingo!

Tenpenny with a quick dash.   #+

Least our penalties are less this week.

Ok, we have not played well tonight. No one is disputing that. Let's not throw the towel in on the season because of this lackluster performance. Last I checked, we still have 9 regular season games to go, plus things could gel better as things go along. Plus, Beleu is out tonight, so that hasn't helped, either. Everyone take it easy, we are still undefeated and you just never know what can happen the rest of the way.

Cyrus?  Shame shame.  Sack.

Bama has had less than impressive outings in every championship season.  I'm not ready to give up on this team.  Especially since they went on the road and beat one of the best teams in the country last week.

All right. Getting more respectable.

No one throwing towel in, but this is starting to sound like a broken record. Poor O-line play, very shaky pass coverage, no energy or emotion. Ole Miss will be a good test of the defense.


 :clap:

BINGO!!  #+ #+

Good to see CB with the TD.  All does is make the score look better.

Not sure that is true. Not saying you, but there have been comments that certainly sound that way.

LSU 28  Barn 7

You know how some of the fans are, they want to fire Saban if we don't win 50-0 in every game. I take it in stride unless they get too crazy.


 :D

Yeah I know, just gets under my skin sometimes.

UCONN 21 Michigan 7 3rd qtr

I think I've figured it out.

Coach Saban has become bored, so he tries to win each game in a different manner, using a handicap against his team.

VT = Beat a special-teams guru at his own game;
A&M = Outscore a strong offensive team;
CSU = Win without any 3rd-down conversions.

Is Jamos & the REC involved in this, too?


 :tinfoil:

UCONN 21-7 over Michigan (3rd).

 :lol:

 #+

:clap:

So what's on tap for Ole Miss?  Are we going to beat them at their own party?

Hmm, not sure.
BTW, congrats CP on the picks: 6-1 so far!!!

Thank you, a minor miracle.  I started 6-0.  Unfortunately, my evening picks don't look too good, but maybe I can hang on.

I agree that I am not willing to throw in the towel on the season and I can handle a less than perfect performance, but the one thing that has me worried is that our team doesn't look hungry like in the past.  We are playing with inconsistent fire and passion.  This is not a typical Saban coached team.  It seems as though if the competition is not high, the team as a whole does not give optimal effort.  There are a couple of exceptions such as CJ, LC, and VS, but even AJ didn't seem to get too fired up last night except when chewing the Drake's A$$ out for going the wrong way.  We are going to have to pick it up or someone like Ole Piss is going to sneak up on us...
