Title: "Nick Saban updates Brian Robinson injury from Iron Bowl"
Post by: Chechem on November 29, 2021, 06:22:42 AM
Saban said Robinson has a “lower body pulled muscle” and they’ll have to wait to see how he progresses during the week before the 3 p.m. CT meeting with top-ranked Georgia.

I'd be very (pleasantly) surprised if he plays Saturday.  If not, Bama is down to one scholarship RB.  That's frightening any week, but particularly against the best D in college football.

We'll definitely miss him on short yardage, but maybe (just maybe) we can use some short-passing schemes.  Trey Sanders is a better receiver, even though B-Rob has improved immensely this year.  I'll be we shift the TE to pass block occasionally too since B-Rob was the better blocker.  And we have a backup QB that could provide quickness and passing from the wildcat if needed, as a change of pace.

Well we are already in trouble but if B-Rob can't play it is really bad. RTR!

We have been tiptoeing around disaster all season.  I'm afraid our shortcomings and lack of depth are going to catch up with us this week.  But, then, maybe BoB can come up with a new O scheme and redeem himself.

Well now I have Faith, but not in the system we have been running all year. I am thinking about how GA beat aub and how tight they kept us. RTR!

Let's play the game first, before we concede.  Who knows how many Bulldogs are eating the rat poison this week.

Think David vs Goliath, Preacher. Hard to believe after all these years, we are David.

Yes we have a streak snapped of being the predictor to win by the point spread. RTR!

Does anyone remember the last time we were an underdog?  Who was the opponent?  How did that turn out?

Hint:  If I'm not mistaken 2Stater and Jamos traveled to that game and watched it in the rain.

A game that we won 38-10, I think.

Correct!

A game that cost the opponent head coach his job, or at least contributed to him getting fired.  And ultimately cost us a coach as well since they hired the replacement from our staff a few months later.

You are right, SC. It drizzled and rained the whole game. The most fun I've ever had at a football game. Jamos and I had a blast. Jamos was ragging Georgia fans who were leaving early in the 3rd quarter.  :lol2:
