Latest news and updates about the Alabama
As Miami fans focus on the path to the ACC title game and comparisons on the national stage – specifically why the Canes belong ahead of Notre Dame, Alabama, and others as the playoff rankings have already incited drama – the real focus should be on winning convincingly at Virginia Tech and at Pitt. This […]
Alabama hosted 2nd-ranked Purdue in a massive early season matchup tonight and the game lived up to its billing, but in the end Purdue got it done by a score of 87-80. The contrasting styles were evident from the opening tip. As much as we expected to see Purdue dominate the glass, the reality was […]
After a year of trusting another defensive coordinator, head coach Brent Venables is back to acting as the DC this year. And, well, they’re giving up all of 14 points per game – one of the best in the entire country. The’ve absolutely stymied most of their schedule, but Michigan, Auburn, and South Carolina haven’t […]
Week 11 saw many of the top teams in the College Football Playoff rankings get wins. Ohio State, Texas A&M, Alabama, and Georgia all won fairly easily against conference opponents. Indiana and Oregon needed late-game heroics in order to win, but got it done when it mattered. The big matchup of the weekend came courtesy […]
There are three undefeated teams remaining in college football heading into Week 12 — Ohio State, Indiana, and Texas A&M. Then there are nine one-loss teams. Seven one-loss teams — Alabama, Georgia, Texas Tech, Ole Miss, Oregon, BYU, and Georgia Tech warranted rankings by the College Football Playoff committee in Tuesday night’s rankings reveal. The […]
Without much elaboration, Oklahoma’s offense was an abject disaster a year ago. The offensive coordinator was fired mid-season, and the starting QB, Jackson Arnold, transferred to Auburn only to get benched there, of all places. They were 97th in the league in scoring, only breaking 20 points against P4 opponents 4 times (and one of […]
Greetings, BBN! Texas A&M beat Mizzou, Alabama won at LSU, Georgia rolled past Mississippi State, Ole Miss won a gimme-game in an FCS non-con cupcake party with The Citadel, Vanderbilt survived a major scare from Auburn in overtime, and Kentucky chomped Florida for their second SEC win in a row after losing five in a […]
First up, we have our weekly press conferences from the Alabama coaching staff. Ryan Grubb This was one of Grubb’s more open pressers in a while, and he had quite a few soundbites. He was, of course, asked multiple times about the run game in various forms of questions. I thought it was pretty funny […]
A NOTE BEFORE WE BEGIN: Zach informed us he would be unavailable Saturday night and I said I could handle the postgame recap. I completely dropped the ball and forgot to do it! So here, two nights later, is a recap. You wanted the recap written in a timely fashion? Well maybe you’re just spoiled. […]
Happy Monday, everyone. Go back fifteen years or so and it would be tough to imagine Alabama fans being frustrated after beating LSU by 11 points. It’s a different era though, and this is where we are. Issues with the running game and deep ball continue to dominate the conversation. “We’ve got to do a […]
Week 11 had some upsets, mostly in the ACC with Virginia and Louisville losing at home. It would have been a crazy week if Indiana and Oregon lost on the road in their conference matchups, but they both pulled out last-minute wins. In the SEC, Alabama, Texas A&M, and Vanderbilt all picked up big conference […]

For what I believe is our 8th straight year, Zach Junda from And The Valley Shook joins us once again to give his honest and often “negatiger” opinions about the LSU football team. And boy, with the Tigers firing Brian Kelly just a week ago and the whole program in turmoil, we had some great […]
Happy Friday, everyone. It’s LSU week, but this year doesn’t have quite the same buzz as usual after the firing of Brian Kelly. Your previews: Alabama might be fourth in the College Football Playoff rankings, but to keep hammering this home – Florida State, Georgia, South Carolina, Missouri. Obviously, the FSU game was a loss, […]
Two years ago, LSU sported one of the worst defenses that I’ve seen in my lifetime, and the Tigers axed their defensive coordinator and brought in Blake Baker from Missouri, who helped stabilize things a bit. They improved to a middle-of-the-road average as a unit that had some decent pass defense chops while struggling against […]
The first College Football Playoff poll of the 2025 season is out! Unsurprisingly, Ohio State, Indiana, and Texas A&M lead the way in the CFP odds following the release of the first set of rankings. How did the new poll affect the rest of the contenders? How far did Miami fall after a disappointing ranking? Let’s look at the latest CFP odds as the first official batch of rankings is out. Oct 25, 2025; Columbia, South Carolina, USA; Alabama Crimson Tide offensive lineman Kad...
#Ranking season is finally upon us, and Alabama placed 4th in the first CFP bracket of the year. The top 4 were about as chalk as you could possibly expect. Ohio State was the easy #1 team, as they’ve obliterated everyone they’ve played. Indiana and Texas A&M were fairly interchangeable at 2 and 3. The […]
The first College Football Playoff rankings were released Tuesday night and IU football is No. 2. The initial top 12: 1. Ohio State; 2. Indiana; 3. Texas A&M; 4. Alabama; 5. Georgia; 6. Ole Miss; 7. BYU; 8. Texas Tech; ... The post IU football is No. 2 in the first College Football Playoff rankings appeared first on Inside the Hall | Indiana Hoosiers Basketball News, Recruiting and Analysis .
With the bye week over, Alabama is headed right into LSU week, and we have our regular programming with the coaching staff press conferences back. Ryan Grubb On issues with the running game: “It’s all. It’s not one thing. Whatever it is, whether it’s pass protection, run blocking, all those things work together. For us, […]
With some of the top teams off (Alabama, Texas A&M, Oregon) and others playing conference doormats (Penn State-Ohio State, Indiana-Maryland) as per usual, the SEC took center stage. It was much better entertainment than watching the Dodgers’ “bought” World Series win. One shlock-fest in particular caught some eyes for the car crash that it was: […]
Happy Monday, everyone. The most important news of the day: It’s officially basketball season! Nate Oats and company will tip off the season tonight against North Dakota. When is Alabama basketball vs North Dakota? Date: Monday, Nov. 3 Start time: 7 p.m. CT Alabama and North Dakota will tip off at 7 p.m. CT on Monday, marking […]
Vanderbilt survived its first true scare of 2025. Yes, they lost to Alabama, but I think all of us had that circled as a likely loss as revenge for last year even if you expected Vanderbilt to be 7-1 at this point. If you did, I need proof then I will fully congratulate you on […]
October is in the books. Texas A&M is still unbeaten and the team to beat, Alabama survived their closest conference shave yet, and three teams at the bottom are still looking for their first league win. The SEC championship spots are still up for grabs, though A&M and the Tide can also just win out […]
Greetings, BBN! Texas A&M rolled past LSU in what turned out to be Brian Kelly’s last game in Baton Rouge, Alabama survived a scare from South Carolina on the road, Ole Miss bested Oklahoma in Norman in a battle of 6-1 records, Vandy did the same hosting 6-1 Mizzou, Texas survived Mississippi State in their […]
Happy Monday, everyone. Alabama remains 4th in the polls following their win over South Carolina as all three teams ranked above them held serve. One of those teams is Texas A&M, which somehow blew out LSU in Baton Rouge despite the game being played at night. LSU coach Brian Kelly’s tenure did not survive. Kelly’s […]
