I keep expecting Bama to play better defense, or to dominate lesser teams. Then it dawned on me. This isn't Saban's Bama. This team is just like DeBoer's Washington. Where every game is close. Where defense is leaky, and lets other teams get back into the game. There are few blow outs, even against weak teams. This is the new Bama. DeBoer's Bama.

^1^Texas v. ^20^ oklahoma
It's 2:38 PM in Dallas and ou still sucks
RRS is always one of those "throw the records out" games. Neither team ever looks truly comfortable in Fair Park, but both of them are chock full of highly-recruited DFW kids trying to show each other up with a ton of friends and family there.
The roar of "ou sucks" chants is music to my ears. They are sucking a little more than I anticipated
What's wrong with Ewers. He missed 2 wide-open receivers for sure TDs. Are you sure his injury wasn't to his head?
Looks like he's trying to play too quickly and is missing reads (probably doesn't want to take too many hits). I had a hunch he would be like this, but more so that Sark's aggressive play calling is not doing him any favors -- I usually love that, but this actually ticks me off a lot that he doesn't dial it back in situations like this where he should be just trying to ease Ewers in.

Fumble into the end zone to recover for a touchdown! Exactly how we drew it up. Not stressed about nearly causing a touchback at all, nope
ou misses their field goal! The "yet to trail this season" streak lives on a little longer
Well, OU tried to give y'all chances, but Ewers looks really rusty.

LOlhio State University. What a way to lose the game.
SC QB can't count. Dude went for the TD 3x instead of the FG. That's an entirely winnable game he threw away, literally.
Man they almost had em. THAT woulda been a fun back to back leading into TSIO next week lol
The fall of Bama is amazing to watch
It's a different Bama. I think if you look at last year's Washington Huskies' season, then you have a better grasp of this year's Bama. They have enough talent to go to national championship. But because they never blow away teams they should, they will get ranked lower and lower, and get underestimated. Like last year's Washington team. Huskies were always ranked lower than their fans thought they should, even with better record. It wasn't until the final week or 2 the picture cleared, and they were in the final 4. Even then there were doubters, but their performance in the championship game showed they belonged.
Absolute shit call. That was an interception for Oregon.
I just can't believe Sooners let Gabriel go so they can start some guy who's on the bench now. what a bonehead mistake.
Wild ending to this one. When Oregon kicked the go-ahead FG with ~30 seconds left I thought that was too much time, but I did not expect an Ohio State to mismanage the clock so badly (not that I'm complaining!)

Neal Brown needs to fucking go. Dude is awful. 21 from the defense AND two 3 and outs coming from the half and you did fuck all with it. Neal is a sham.
Florida @ ^11^ Tennessee
I hate this game, I do not want this to go to extra time. Please just finish it

Tennessee successfully failed to lose. 🤣
It was a back and forth hard fought effort, but ultimately it was the gators who came out on bottom
This game has got to be incredible to watch for anyone who hates the gators and the Vols

How is that the play that goes our way lol
That was an... interesting series for the Tennessee offense.
Yeah normally I like Heup's playcalling. It can be controversial but it's aggressive... that wasn't
Crowd noise was a given. Billy might lose close and still get tarmac'd. Such an underwhelming coaching display.

BAH, there we go. I knew Lagway wouldn't go under center. He takes spikes and kneeldowns from shotgun.
Being in the gun is a disadvantage. Jet sweep against a fast team is dumb and why Billy is probably still going to get fired this year.
Gotta stop grabbing the shoulder-numbers, pumpkins.

RRS is too stressful, so seeking brief reprieve in ^3^ Penn State at USC. This is a beautiful uniform combo.
I, uh, did not know that the C doesn't have to line up at center and can snap on the end of the line and be an eligible receiver. That was a beautiful TD by Penn State's center there

This BYU - AZ game is pretty competitive, but BYU is about to make it not so
Lol @ Gus thinking BYU could kick a fg from their own 40
Now I'm wondering how high of elevation you would need to make it possible. Like, if Justin Tucker was on top of Mount Everest could it be done?
