I've opened the thread early for those at the game to post photos and share their thoughts and observations.

Is it just me, or is time crawling today?  I'm getting tired of trying to pass the time with lousy games today.  I'm ready for some real football.

This game should be worth the wait.  Yes, time is dragging.

Here's a little more hype to get errbody ready........

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fy_Ba4vNgPE

The thread is open early. My dinner will be in honor of Texas. Giant ribeyes and potato. Homemade tailgate. Working now on the Sam Adams. Hurry up game.

Here too.  LF bought steaks, and they'll be on the grill by 6PM.  I'm pacing myself on drinks (so far)!  :clap:

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

3 hours 8 minutes to go

:jump:  :jump: :jump:  :jump:

And we're already on the 2nd page.  :clap:

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

2 hours 10 minutes to go

Well I'm in fellas. Paid $200 for a $285 face value ticket. Section C113. It wont let me get a picture away on Twitter from inside.

How's it look, smell, etc?  Thanks for the commentary.

Wow, 20-yard line on the home side.  Congrats.  Great seats down low.

By far the nicest stadium I've ever seen. Everything is first class. Oh and Mrs Terry is about 30ft away currently.

Shelley and Foster just came out in their undershorts for a jog.

Undershirts! !!!

 :o

nice save   8)

 :lol: :lol: :lol:  Thank goodness.  CNS has enough to worry about!

I just logged on and was worried for a second!
      :lol:

Downloaded a picture shrinker. I think they are getting sent now.

Good stuff, HL!  #+

I'm good for maybe 2 posts at BDS.

let it rip tater chip ! errr ... I mean HL    #+

Well I'm ready! I have seen some bad defenses today. I guess they need a couple of games to get coached up. Huh. RTR!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koJ0uw0aOyc

Pass the eye black.

Wow SC thanks for the memories. I got chills. Auburn just kicked off. RTR!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 :pullhair:

I'm soooooooooooooo ready!!!

LSU just broke a long TD.  7-0.

"Crimson Tide Football is on the air."

Listening to Coach Saban and Eli Gold.  :jump:

All I got it is Entertainment Tonight! :'(

This connection works for me: http://1400wfpa.com/programs.htm

You gotta hand it to the Mexicans, at least when it comes to food, they're faster than McDonalds. I'm back in time for both kickoffs.  :clap:

Thanks!

Muy bien.

LSU 14-0.

WE ARE BUCKLED IN AND READY TO ROCK !!!!   :clap:


you all too Chech !   Thank God it's football season !!!!

that goofy white shirt cheeznip wears looks like he is in a crappy
movie playing a orderly at a mental institution

 :lol: :lol: :lol:

Chic Fil A party tray and cold Dos Equis.

Oh yeah, we're all ready here!!

 8) 8)

APB on Clems "D"  it's MIA !!!!      >:(

Looks like Clemson is using the same D it did in the bowl game. :wall:

But the Aubs fumbled it to them.   :clap: :clap: :clap:

But then.....FUMBLE!!!! Clemson's got it.

FIFY

Steaks and artichokes consumed now ready.RTR!!!!!!

Report from Eli: "Eddie Lacy heavily taped.  He will likely start, but may be played sparingly."

I have radio, but ABC is broadcasting a stupid, local weatherman pointing at a map of Memphis.   >:( >:( >:( >:(

Eli said it is still 15 minutes to kickoff?  :o  ???

Then, as proposed by Rueben:

(http://palmettopublicrecord.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/toast.jpg)

"Hear, hear."

I can't take it any longer!! :wall: :wall: :wall: :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

I agree, :tink:

Bama about to take the field.  Michigan awaits on the sidelines.

Coach looks calm, cool, and collect.
 :popcorn2:

Michigan won the toss.  Deferred.

Love that Nissan Heisman commercial with HTWMI. I am ready. Let's get it on.

I thought he looked nervous as a cat.  Oops...

First Alabama play should be interesting.  We'll review the thread (of predictions) in a few minutes!

herbie has on his purple got pooped on  shirt  :clap:

Hoke looks like he's ready to throw up.

Start on the 25.  Good kickoff.

Not a great series to start with.

Terrible start and what's up with Steen?

Hmmm.  Slow start.

Well 3 and out is not what I wanted to see. >:(

Great punt!

Not a good set of downs, but great kick.

DEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

get the nerves settled and kick some azz     >:( >:( >:( >:(

Let's go D!

Dee looking good.

Here comes the first pick.

Facemask against offense.  Learned that from the Aubs!!

Punt!

Had him open my foot.  I counted 4 crimson jerseys in the frame.

I love our D     #+ #+ #+

Good job D. Now let's get the O in gear. The nerves should be gone.

Indeed   #+ #+ #+ #+

Nice job D! Now let's put it in the end zone!

So UM being fired up, lasted 3 defensive and 2 offensive plays? They're in trouble now.

Clemson ahead 13-10

It's hard to stay fired up once your mouth starts bleeding.

Smash mouth baby!!!

Big push for EL! #+

Nice run Eddie

1st down Alabama!!!

Roll Tide!!!

AJ got em moving.

There goes TJ's redshirt...

Oh no one penalty Mr Williams will hear about. RTR!

KennYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!

Kenny "ring their" Bell      #+ #+ #+

This is more like what I've been expecting.  Yeldon!!!

Well, it was competitive for about 4 minutes.  :)

Roll Tide!!!

This is a much better series..

I thought TJ was gone!

WOW YELDON!!!

I like it I love it !!!! come on TD time !!!!!!

We are pounding Mich line!! 6 coming.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TD BAMA!!!!!!

TD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's how we roll!!!

I am watching Fluker and Steen they are a good team on that right side. RTR!

"It's a mauling, Folks!"

I like the this Lacey/yield on combo.
TD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That drive looked easy.

OK men we got one but there is a lot more in the pot. Just take all the candy and let's go home! RTR!

 #+ #+ #+

Man I am happier than a hot hog looking for the mud walloer. RTR!

Stupid spell check that should be Yeldon

 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Isn't this fun?  How in the world did we survive the last 200+ days without football?

Roll Tide!!

Short kickoff.   :wall:

Get ready. Wolverines won't know what hit em.

UM looks very small compared to Bama. Long night for them.

Denard is playing scared now.

Throw it again Denardo!  I dare you!

3 and out. Let's go get another.

Yeah Denard's passing is MUCH better than last year.  :eyeroll:

That was too close to being completed.

I am a bit worried about some of these deep balls. I guess that is the learning curve of our D.

Good pass coverage is looking good. We have some experience building going on. RTR!

Same thing I told LF, 2.   :lol: :lol:

Aight Preacher just settle down get some more Picante' Sause and know everything gotta be alright. RTR!

They are testing Dee, but so far he has held up.  He does an excellent job when the ball is in the air.

This drive may break their back.

I was afraid of that  >:(

We're good, Preacher.

AJ is making good decisions.

JF is a load!

WOW Fowler!!!

Fowler!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT.  Big run.

I think they placed the ball back 5 instead of up 5... :D

how ya'll like these SEC  running backs UM ?    :dunno:

Beautiful td!

Did you see that Denardo?  That is how you THROW THE BALL!!!

Beautiful pass!!!

Wow.  This has looked so easy.

Jesus that was pretty     #+

AJ is playing flawless so far. Making good decisions. RTR!

45-second drive.

Picture perfect pass to White!! That will be on the highlight reel!!

Let's go pick 6!

Great toos AjJ and great catch DW. We are really balanced on O. Lets pour it on boys.

how ya'll like our SEC OB's UM ?     :clap:

I think I'm  feeling pretty good about this year's team.

Si, y mio.

Old Tider, are you still nervous?

Denard needs to go back to lobbing the ball.

DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That'll do!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Come on D!!! Pick by Millner

I think I called it.   :clap: :clap: :clap:

I will say this for him:  Denard tackles better than he throws.

Denard is hurt (made the tackle).

see ya' Cote2       :-*

How high does the scoreboard at Jerry World go?  Also, we may have broken their QB.

Who won the pool on breaking Denard?

TD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#+  I noticed that.

And Lacy just scored.  Roll Tide!!!

I think I had him crushed at 2:05 of the 2nd quarter.

oh my Jesus , we will see some back ups soon if this keeps up   :dunno:

I'm feeling pretty good about this game now! :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

EL!!!!!!!!!!

21-0 and it ain't even 2 qtr!!

BUMP

Thanks, SC.

The slant was open, but we are in his head now.  He is rattled.

This is the best start for Alabama in a big game since ........

well, the last game.   :dunno:

https://twitter.com/CecilHurt/statuses/242063162956988416

Well said

Radio: Nico is on the sideline reminding everyone that it's not over.

The process is in full effect.  Let's go for a hundred points!

 #+ #+ #+ #+ #+

Report from HL:


https://twitter.com/KGlover4UA/status/242064401442697216

Total yards: Bama 152-32.

Do we see Ely tonight??? :dunno:

They are inching ahead we need to stop them. RTR!

What's the over/under on number of broken QBs this year? 

Anything less than 13.5 and I'm taking the over.

I think he's getting his money's worth.

Uh, what was that about our defense?????

Man Dee is playing perfect. Just wow! RTR!

Dee is killing them in pass coverage.

Dee is Mark Barron tonight!

Since aubie returned that kick for td, Bama has put up 60 unanswered points.

hey #16 , this ain't Beamer ball    :lol:

He has an excellent coach.

#+

They advertise to much. We need to play football. Advertise tomorrow when I am in Church. RTR!

:lol: #+

HL, you there? I bet that stadium is lit up!

What I really impressive is how well this team is playing in their first game.

No wonder CNS seemed to be happy.

You into the sacramental wine, Preacher?

TJ is going to be mean when he grows up. lol, RTR!

TJ YELDON is a beast!!!!!

They are so hungry and ready to prove themselves.

TJ is explosive!!!

Yeldon!  Just wow.

Coach needs to fix these penalty's! >:(

Naw, I just do communion. RTR!

:lol: #+

#+

BS, he threw the shoulder!

That was a BS call!!

Great call. TJ is a superstar!

Yeldon reminds me of TR. what a run and great screen call.

Well he just ran over that guy.  I see he is wearing the same jersey I'm wearing, #4.  He must have been a fan of mine growing up.  :dunno:

FG time.

3 is good.

Well 3 is better than 0.

Well Fg is just as good with our defense. RTR!

 :lol: :lol:  No doubt, SC.

That would be 24-0. Anybody think Mayweather was an idiot for placing that 3 mill bet on Michigan?

If this keeps can u imagine what the 4th. Qtr. will be like??

I would love to see 7 more before halftime. RTR!

No complacency guys. Stay after them!

+1

 :popcorn2:

Come on Bama stay on them no let up

Big storms closing in on me.  Hope I don't lose power!

PREACHER, help!

They seem to be saving Denard so they can try to make a run at their pee wee conference championship.  Smart move on their part.

 :o :o :o

 :pray: :pray: :pray:

Denard hasn't run yet.  Weird for them!

Nice play Trey!

The "D" is doing everything right.

They don't want him out with an injury for the year which is a real possibility.

cluck cluck ?     :o

I just did again Chechem. RTR!

DePriest nearly decapitated that guy. We have got some heavy hitters. Now let's get 6!

Total yards: 233-38.

Prayers to you, X. Let us know when they pass.

I wonder if Gary Dingleberry would like to re-think his prediction?

I SO missed the tie breaker question.

Nice run Hart!

GMAC, ever the Bama ambassador.  :clap:

AJ needed to get that ball out

#16  ?


(http://img1.UploadScreenshot.com/images/main/9/24412045980.png) (http://www.UploadScreenshot.com/image/1377702/4811466)

Great job. The kicking is loooking good. RTR!

Super kick and coverage.

1 yd line. Time for a defensive score!

"Um... harumph....."   me too

GET THE BALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!     >:(

One on one coverage is outstanding. Dee Milliner is Superman.

What a great play on D. Knocked it out of his hands.

Denard called timeout.   :dunno:

"Thanks."

Milliner plays the ball in the air better than any corner I've seen in a while.

I'll be close!

WOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I called that one!!!!!!

Roll Tide!!!

This couldn't get much better! NIce pick 6 CJ

CJ pick 6!!!!!!!!!

SEC chant begins. :popcorn2:

Okay: MAULING is the operative word.

BTW: 70-0 now since the Aubs scored last year.

Pick 6!!!!!!!

Michigan hasn't crossed the 50 (them either!).

Well 1 more set of 7 wouldn't hurt me. RTR!

I wonder if the all the other conferences fans find this game boring.... :dunno:

AND THEY DID !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
PICK 6


 #+ #+ #+

Ask and you shall receive.  Maybe you should have asked for 14.  :dunno:

#+

bet the SEC hate is off the charts  :lol:

Let one slip >:(

That is the only pass play they know, just throw it deep.

Crap! What was that?  ???

Gracious me, Brent will have a ball now. RTR!

Well crap!!

That's alright.  It'll give CNS something to get on them about at halftime.

Oops.

Goal line stand right here would crush them.

Mercy... :dunno:

Hmmm.... now they're in trouble.

Back them up now, that makes it a little easier.

I knew they would run him down there.  They had no choice.

That'll pizz the "D" off.

Does anyone have an online radio link?  My internet speed is slowing down and video stream is nearly unwatchable.

It did me!

Jesse was held on that play.

You and LF both called it.  #+

Yep, let me find it.  One sec.

yep , the fire just got turned up a notch  #+

http://www.fun927.com/

http://1400wfpa.com/programs.htm

Here is the radio link.

Brent just told Herbie to call him "chub" now that UM got points  :clap:

If we score here won't that pour salt into their wounds.

Eddie!!!

Sidelines would have been a good direction. Just sayin.

Thanks for the radio links!  Realized I had the VPN on and that always slows things down.  Video is working again, but might slow down when more people on campus wake up and get online.

Well, good morning to you.  :coffee-cup salute:

Note to self: Never refer to Bama's RB's as running back by committee to CNS.  :lol:

 :coffee2:

boy , ain't that the truth , you see those laser eye's fire up ?   :lol:

Aubs ahead 19-16
LSU ahead 27-7
Ole Miss 42-20
Arky 35-21
Missou 48-3
Miss State 56-9

I missed it.  What did he say?

More the way he snapped at her when she asked about 'running back by committee'.

He said something like, "We have a lot of RBs."

I see Arky still lacks defense...

Is that possible?

Looks like Clemson just took the lead 23-19.

 :lol: :lol: :lol:

Paraphrasing: It's not running back by committee.  It's that we have several talented young men at that position, and we're letting them play.  AND I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT!!!

oop's    :o

 :lol:

CNS sounded a little pissed at the break. I think he wants team to make a statement. Time to make a few adjustments. Like watch the deep ball and play power football.

she looks lighter in the seat of her pants   :clap:

The guy had a wench from his 2 ton hooked under his arm.  :lol:

Denard finally ran again.  Not much.

Looked like a flock of buzzards coming at DR.  :lol:

Okay, 80 yards away again.  More stats!!

Clemson has the ball at their 20.  6:30 to go.  Clemson leads 23-19.

I think we need to run it down their throats for the rest of the game. They haven't stopped us yet.

Good job D! Now let's be methodical and drive down the make the ass quit.

Yeldon starting.

Yes. Pound the line over and over.

Make their azz quit.

Great play KN!

Until EL gets 100%, I see Yeldon doing the job.

Come on, Cade.    :(

Come on D!

Clemson in position to win.  Less than 2 min; on the Aub goal line.

UM hasn't stacked the box all night. I don't understand the pass with this kind of lead in the 2nd half.

Are we slowing it down or are they getting up to speed...thoughts???

Keep it tight, D.

Michigan is playing against our freshman class.

or maybe it's a case of ....


(http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l149/twogunmojo/BlindSquirrel.jpg)

 :lol:

Sunseri bringing the wood!!!!

Wow!!!! BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a hit by Vinnie!!!

guess they forgot about Vinnie  :dunno:

 :lol:

Denard is hurt, apparently pretty bad.  Lower back?

Broke twice. He's a tough guy.

well he it comes , for years on end


"well , if DR wouldn't have got hurt"


Cote2

Michigan has gone to their base O. Not sure they are raising the flag but they are not looking down field. Now with DR out who knows.

 :jump:

I got one right!

 #+ #+ #+

tree ambulance's on high alert and rolling

Way to overturn

Our O line is wearing UM out. TJ at 100 yds.

Nice job TJ

Yeldon  looks to be the apparent next BATR

True.  But we're better off if he plays and they win.  NO WAY wil they be in the BCSNC anyhow after this.

BTW, he's back from the locker and appears okay.

Huh?  ???

AJ that was bad...

Attaboy Cade!!!  #+

51 yards Nice kick Foster

heir?  hair?  hare?

Way to go CF!! That will help him

52 yards. Foster!

Attaboy Cade!  Good call by Saban to put him back on the horse.  We might need him later this year.  I doubt it, but you never know.

They're showing a picture of our trophy.

Nice coverage

Heir... I was ahead of my self. Thanks

 :dunno:

Fortunately the weather front coming at us is slowing, but it's almost here.  Keep praying, Preacher.  I need just another half hour or so.

Bull Sh^^^^^^^^^^^^^^!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We're falling apart! >:(

geeezzzz


thanks  >:(

Another hold not called.

I think you're right!  :clap:

come on guys GET ON THE BALL !    >:( >:(

Chill people.  We've got this.

Come on D. Don't  let up.

 >:( :o >:( >:( >:(

15 MORE MINUTES ! NO MORE UM POINTS !!!!

We need a TD. Just have a good solid drive.

Crap. Let's answer with 6 not 3!

TD drive here....Please!

It's just fodder for CNS to stay on their case next week.

It's about here, with us up by 20, that I agree.  If we win without any mistakes, CNS won't be able to keep their attention next week.

End of 3rd. Feed it to TJ. Run it down their throats.

Denard is good, but he's not good enough to play QB in the SEC.  I hope he stays healthy (and does nothing) the rest of the game.

There you go, run it, run it, run it!

plus 2 , and it's what all the cool kids are doing   :clap:

GET THE BALL !!!!!!!!    >:(

We're throwing deep more than we did last year.  Not enough of them are caught so far, but we've spread the D with the passing, and pounded them on the ground.  Looking good.

More work on timing of the passing game needed yet.

Let's see what adjustment we have made on D. Come on D no more points.

Crap! He was wide open and AJ overthrew him. Just run the ball. This game is ours!

I just updated a couple of pick 'em games.  Clemson covered, LSU did not.  USC is 1 point short with about 10 minutes to go.

I am very impressed with this team so far knowing its the first game.  This is a well prepared team despite the mistakes.

This will be one he** of team this yr. if they stay healthy.

I will say this for Denard:  his throws have a lot more zip on them than they did in their bowl game last year.

THERE GOES THAT BLIND SQUIRREL AGAIN    >:(

Jesse and Lester are both on sidelines, apparently hurt.

That is not good.

geeesh !   that's just great  :wall:

Lots of lightning and thunder here.  Hate this stuff.

Come on D, we need a turnover and TD.

Come on D, get a stop right here.

Yep, we need to get to 41.

I think we look a lot better than most teams for a first game.

Much better D on that 3rd down (dime package).

Christion playing well on punts.

Especially Michigan.

You still under the gun?

YES.  Flashes of lightning.  Just waiting for the power surge that screws this up.  I'm enjoying every play, though. 

hoke is saying "at least I did better than Les"   :clap:

Nice catch Kelly.

Attaboy Kelly Boy Johnson.

Memphis just took the game off and put on a weather girl.  >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

Really proud of him.

I'm blind here now, so keep talking, guys.  I have radio still.

Fowler running over people.

Will do.

OH MY GOD ! what is wrong with those people  >:(




but really , be safe !

Pretty throw to the end zone.  Would have been a TD, but there was pass interference.

I'm back.  Saw the run to the goal line.

More Fowler running over people, down to about the 1 foot line.

Yeldon punches it in.

TJ TD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 Way to go JF & TJ!!!

TD for TJ'!!!!!!!!!!!! !

good gravy , Fowler is a killer  :o

he shoved that UM guy to the turf like he was a kid   :clap:

Gentlemen, it's been a pleasure.

I think all we need now is the fork and a fish!

First college TD for Yeldon!  #+ #+ #+

(http://www.thegreenhead.com/imgs/calamete-pasta-fork-2.jpg)

 #+ Yep!

Looks like USC is not going to cover.  14 seconds left.  Yippee!

I am impressed with Yeldon!!

Glad he's on our side.

A favorite day this summer.

You got a little crazy with sunscreen on the face... ;)

Bama looks better against Michigan at a neutral site than other SEC teams look at home against cupcakes.  Obviously nothing is settled after one week, but I think we've shown we're still the team to beat.  The defense has given up a couple of big plays which is a little concerning, but they should only get better as the season progresses. 

15 is a very real possibility.  (But we already knew that.)

See my fingers... 
No offense, couldn't resist.  Warsaw Grouper, BTW.

We'll get more votes from the midwest after this. 
Wonder what happened to the guy who voted Michigan #1?

None taken.

Let's get one more TD.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I forgot about that guy.

This has been worth the wait.  What a great way to start September and the 2012 season.  I'm impressed.  I was afraid of the hype.

Thanks.  :beer glasses toast:

Great kick and huge block in the back by UM. The fork is bigger, Chech. Great win!

(http://palmettopublicrecord.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/toast.jpg)

Let's not forget the toast we had at the kickoff, folks. 
"For those who went before us."

The reserves look good. Way to stay with it Dillon Lee.

Very proud of this team. It wasn't perfect and there are things to work on, but all in all a very good win.

AMEN!

Great win for the Tide. Roll Tide!! #+

Freshman Kenyan Drake in the game for one play. ???  :dunno:

We had a lot of recruits at the game.  Maybe letting as many freshmen as possible play was part of the plan.

As impressive an opening game as you could ever want. RTR!

whelp ,   we did our thing to the SEC haters , AGAIN
all in all not to bad of a showing from our guys
I'm proud of their efforts

hope our guys that were hurt won't be very bad
saying a Prayer to address that ....

nice time tonight folks , thanks for having me over  8)
enjoyed it immensely and till next week , I can't wait !


ROLL TIDE !  1-0 

Yep, X, I'm a bit worried about injuries too.  I only heard one mention of it (Jesse and Lester), so I'm awaiting word from Eli. 

Let us know as soon as you hear something.

pass it along if you don't mind , wife unit got sick and I had to run
for medicine and missed some stuff , radio is out of the question right
now ... thanks 

I saw a tweet that said that J. Williams has a mild concussion.

Eli said that for the first time in Alabama's 118 year history, a true freshman (Yeldon) had over 100 yards in his first game.  :o

Lester - shoulder, nothing serious
DePriest - ankle sprain, nothing serious
Jesse - mild concussion, nothing too serious
Ragland - high ankle sprain, most serious of the 4

All of the above according to CNS.

geesh .... hope he is ok 
the dude goes hard I hope it won't be something that stops him  :pray:

Thanks for the update.

thanks for the imfo   #+

A pic of the scoreboard as time ticked away (with a few nice looking Bama ladies):

And a parting shot...the House That Jerry Built by night:

It was a great atmosphere at the game tonight, and a great win by Bama, in a game that was never in question.
