    Big victory for Alabama in a venue where visiting teams usually go to die. And James Franklin continues his futility against top 10 teams.

    That really was a stupid penalty, Terry although that flying leap was funny to watch. I guess youth combined with excessive testosterone can cause a brain to stop functioning.

    Alabama’s defense showed up last night. Georgia was able to run on us but we did a good job on third downs. Simpson and Bernard have turned into a really good combination on offense. Big win for us but we still have a tough schedule ahead.

    I think there is a lot of parity at the top of the SEC, so 2 loss champion is likely.

    Aw, now you sound like an OSU fan. ;) I thought we looked ok in the first half and felt pretty confident we'd open it up a bit in the second half. Two mistakes...we got stopped on fourth and one on the goal line and the fumbled return (he was cradling the ball properly but the first guy hit him and knocked one arm off and the second guy stripped the other arm...he probably should have gone down when he first got hit but I'm not going to knock extra effort.)

    We only punted the ball once the entire game. (yeah I think it was in the first half). Anyway I really thought we had control and would continue to control the game. Just a couple of missed opportunities.
