Roll Tide, ladies and gentlemen.  Roll Tide!

We owe the Badgers one. They won the only previous meeting 0-15 in 1928 in Madison.
No worry. Saban is 4-1 against the Big Ten and has never lost Bama's opening neutral site games.

That's a good un.


 :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

Under 20 minutes to TV coverage! IT'S ALMOST HERE!!! IT'S ALMOST HERE!!! IT'S ALMOST HERE!!!

I feel like a kid waiting on Christmas morning!

Roll Tide!!

Belly is full and I have my game face on. Welcome back everyone!

May you have a joyous Christmas today!!

 Gotta feeling Santa gonna deliver something special today!

... and this!

I can't wait to see what Saban Clause brings us this year!

WOO HOO!! ITS ALMOST HERE, BOYS!!!

ROLL TIDE!!!! LET'S WHOOP SOME BADGER BUTT!!

Maybe Cyrus Jones will bring us some Christmas goodies.

 :unsure: :unsure: :unsure:

 :worship:

That Auburn QB was handing out lots of goodies today.  He is a very generous chap.

:lol2:

But GameDay declared him the Heisman winner this morning...

I noticed that too, which is one of the main reasons I watched their game today.  They were wrong.  Des wasn't buying it though.

A little nervous!!!! :tinfoil: :tinfoil:

Get three coffins ready.

 :lol: :lol: :lol:

I remain very concerned that Reuben Foster will decapitate the QB.

Gentlemen (and lady), it's a pleasure enjoying this game with you.

ROLL TIDE!!

Saban: "Coker will start."

No surprises.

Just shaking off the cobwebs and warming everybody.

Nice punt.

 :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

Until Scott came along, Bama had never had a punter so good that I don't mind seeing him out there.

True.  We've never had one as strong as him.  Hope he has a good season AGAIN!

Nice first series for defense. We look like we are daring them to throw.

Neither team taking chances.  Now we see if we can get it going with Drake.

 :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship:

Wide open!!

Nice pass by Coker!

Caputo (safety) done for game.

He's a 2nd-team All America.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

That's 1.

He caught Derrick Henry's knee in the helmet.  He gone.

Some big holes in the O-line for our passing game.  Not good.

Looks like we'll need some quick hitters to slow the LBs, unless the running game drives them into submission.

 :tinfoil:

Well I am guessing Cooper will be next maybe. RTR!

Secondary getting abused.  :wall:

Nice catch.  Humphrey tackled him before he caught it.

7-7

We can adjust to that.  Lots of man coverage and a stacked D-line.
No blitzes at all.  Our CBs are playing safe.

Got to shore up that pass defense.  >:(

Looks like same folks last year. I am not sure what is happening to our DB's. RTR!

Coker to Foster - TOUCHDOWN!!!

Coker might be alright, after all.  8)

Defense looking better.  Wisconsin isn't Louisville; not giving us anything!

 :popcorn2:

Someone put a hex on our punter.

"Mah goodness, Buffy, he hit the upraht."

HALFTIME: BAMA 14  WISCANSIN 7

:lol2:

So, looks like Coker is the man.  Anybody expect a change in QB if it stays close??

 :tinfoil:

no change in the secondary >:( SSDY

KING HENRY AGAIN FOR A TD

:jump:

 #+ #+ #+ #+ #+

Our defense is tackling great.  Much improved over last year, me thinks.

Everybody breathing better?

Good lungs?   :unsure:

Missed fg.  That drive fizzled, just when we could put them away!

 :wall: :wall: :wall:

Cooper, Cooper, Cooper, Cooper BATEMAN!

 :dunno: :dunno:

I am thinking the same thing unless CNS just used him as a ploy to get other teams to worry about somebody besides Coker. RTR!

28-10

Cooper now??

4th Quarter begins.  The Alabama Crimson Tide is rolling.

(http://www.rantsports.com/clubhouse/wp-content/slideshow/2013/08/alabama-cheerleaders/medium/Alabama-Cheerleaders2.jpg)

Bama 21 first downs to 12 for Wisky.

Adam missed again!   :wall: :wall: :wall:

 :wall:

Time for the defense to get a score!

(http://www3.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/Allstate+BCS+National+Championship+Game+LSU+5Ul9_h5kc4Dl.jpg)

Never had any doubt.

This is the way a beautiful game is supposed to be.  Just sit back and enjoy.

 :-* :-* :-*

Mighty Wisconsin running game has 17 yards. Funny, they seem to run wild against Purdue, Indiana, Minnesota, Northwestern, Rutgers, Maryland, Iowa, etc. I wonder why?




 :duh:

Cooper looks like he needs work.

 :tinfoil:

TD DRAKE!!

DRAKE TD

:jump:  :jump:

What a heads up play by Drake!

Nice to see our running game working.  Drake is FAST!  Good to see he's back 100%.  Heck, maybe 110%

That's 2.  And I think that one was the one running his mouth about being able to run on Bama.

FINAL

35 - 17

WE WIN

Roll TIDE@!

Santa Saban delivered!  Roll Tide!

Merry Christmas!

Rammer Jammer and a few other things.

Everything I wanted!

We looked pretty good for week 1.  Way better than some other teams I saw today.  :lol2:

Penn State?   :lol2:

Seriously, the SEC showed they're atop college football.
The Big 10 shipped the bed (as did the left-coast conference).

 :worship: :worship: :worship:

Good game on FS1. Miss. St. 14  S. Miss. 10, 3rd qtr.

Tide 264 yds passing & 238 rushing. 502 total.





 :dance:

Great game; Henry is a beast that's all you can say about him. Would like to see Harris as the #2 back behind the first string O-line, Coop needs a lot of work, hope nothing happens to Coker.

I was going to say Kansas... :o

You failed to mention that ol' "fly in the ointment" was calling the game.  :facepalm:

I'd like to see Cooper running the first team, especially with an OL that can block for him.  Coker played well but he looks like a disaster is possible on any play.  Cooper like a real QB to me.  Much more upside in the long run.  But take nothing away from Coker.  He got 'er done!

^THIS^

Cooper Bateman is the future of the program. 

Cooper does not seem to be as accurate to; his passes for the most part were either, high or to far ahead of the receiver, then there was the pass out in the flat where he threw the ball well behind the reciever which lead to a big loss.

Calvin Ridley looked awesome.  The guy has great hands, quickness, speed...  He was Bateman's go-to receiver.

The media kept questioning Bama's receivers leading up to the game, I think Bama is doing fine in that dept. Ridley is going to be outstanding.

Good quote in ESPN Article.

Mark my words, Ridley will follow in the footsteps of Julio and Coop.

Kiffin is attributed with saying something like this about Ridley, before Saban told him to keep it quiet.   :lol:

Yep! In all seriousness, I see him being a superstar.
