Merry almost Christmas, everyone. With Alabama off until New Years, there’s not too much going on today. But feel free to hang out and talk. Can Zabien Brown get one more touchdown before he goes pro next year? My money is on yes. I think there’s also a very good chance he’s the top cornerback […]

Trends play out on paper, football games are decided on the field. Alabama beating Oklahoma was another data point in favor of teams that lost the first matchup in a season, turning around and winning the second game. It was a 100% rate, UNTIL those Ole Miss Rebels wrecked that trend. Not only did Ole […]

[With Christmas rapidly approaching and travel plans for some, we bring you Random Thoughts a day early. Ho! Ho! Ho!] Alabama made a statement. Oregon got a little lazy. And Miami-FL and Texas A&M gave us a classic. A classic bore. Meanwhile, it was not good week for the AAC teams with Tulane, Memphis and […]

So yesterday, in the College Football Playoff, Tulane lost to Ole Miss 41-10 and James Madison lost to Oregon 51-34. Let’s be clear: Vanderbilt is the little guy and always will be. Our conference membership means we’re technically aligned with the “big boys” but no, we’re not. If you are taking the Alabama/Texas side of […]

Sheridan followed Kalen DeBoer from Washington, where he was the Huskies’ tight ends coach, to Alabama after the 2023 season. He served as the Tide’s […]

Things started out terribly but worked out in the end, as Alabama avenged their earlier loss to Oklahoma to advance in the College Football Playoff. Alabama won the toss and elected to defer, giving the ball first to Oklahoma QB John Mateer. The Sooners predictably tried to be aggressive on the first play with a […]

Well then. Alabama was an abject disaster for the 1st quarter. Oklahoma got out to a 7 point lead after the Tide went 3 and out. Then they went three and out again, and Oklahoma scored again. And rinse-repeat, and suddenly the Sooners were up 17-0, and the game felt pretty well over. Until it […]

First up, the biggest news yesterday was Kalen DeBoer’s remark after Wednesday’s practice: For one, Cuevas has been Ty Simpson’s most clutch receiving option for much of the season, and his absence the last three games was clearly felt. Two, don’t discount Danny Lewis. The veteran tight end has barely played this season. Want to […]

Based on his pedigree coming in to college, it was presumed by many that Brayden Burries would step on the court and just dominate. Kind of like how Koa Peat did in his first collegiate game and most since. Not everything happens instantaneously. And some things, like Burries’ breakthrough performance on Saturday night, are worth […]

Happy Thursday, everyone. As Brent covered last night, Michigan fired head coach Sherrone Moore after a bizarre and dark episode that could very easily have turned tragic. Kalen DeBoer was immediately named as a top target, despite his assurances to Alabama fans earlier this season that Tuscaloosa is a place that college football coaches just […]

Obviously the big news of the day is that the College Football Playoff bracket was announced yesterday. Not everyone in college football got in. Some took that better than others. To be clear, of the trio of Miami, Notre Dame and Alabama I thought Notre Dame had perhaps the best case to get in. They […]
