ROLL TIDE

Roll Tide and I may get to watch the game on CBS sports on computer. I know it will be about 3 plays late probably but still seeing is better than hearing only. RTR!

Today's game should tell us something about our team.  RTR !!!

I'm just ready. Bring it on and ROLL TIDE!!!

The talking heads expect a close game for 3 quarters.  Hope our in-game threaders can keep the faith!

 :tinfoil:

ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!

ROLL TIDE!!!!

In before game time. 

Roll Tide!

Well I don't care if we win by.5 points it is fine with me. RTR!

I was rather hoping for 48-9 myself.   :unsure: :unsure:

I haven't seen this posted on the board yet, but CBS is showing "Four Sides to the Story" right now, which is about Tua coming in for the second half of the national championship game. Herbstreit had good commentary to start the show.

Roll tide!

Saban seemed pretty upbeat on TV this morning.  That's usually a bad sign for the other team.

 :popcorn2:

Eli Gold:

"Rain is falling again."

 :(

ROLL TIDE!

Bama won the toss; DEFERS.

 #+

INTERCEPTED!!

TOUCHDOWN!!

(http://www.totalprosports.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/3-alabama-cheerleaders-2.jpg)

What a great start!!!!!!

Well, that's a nice start!

Bama 7-0!!  50 seconds!  

The stretch was great. RTR!

The Mack Attack has hit already. RTR!

Couldn't have scripted that better.   #+

SACK!!

BUGGS!!

Block in the back on the return, but if these Aggies keep punting to Waddle -- well, Waddle will return one for a TD!

 :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

Why do these players never learn no matter what you do the ref will see a block in the back. That is the dumbest penalty you can have. RTR!

Facemask against A&M, so we get a cheap first down.   #+

Pass for a first to Devonta again.  WOOT!

My TV went off.  Still got Eli Gold.

 :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

Eli:

"Jeudy and Tua miscommunication."

Aggies at their 1.

We've got Biblical rain.  The Ole Miss game is delayed again.  Our TV is off.

Help me out here folks.  I've got Eli, but no TV.

 :popcorn2:

A&M driving. Time to stop them.

And we've gotten 12 men on the field.  

HEAVY RAIN AGAIN.  

But Eli is still on the radio.  Thank you, Jesus.

Mond for 55-yard run.

Somebody tackle that QB!!

 >:(

Touchdown to the TE for A&M.  99-yd drive.

Our turn again.

The D looked horrible on that drive. Need to step it up here. C'mon TUA!

Ever since my TV went off our team tanked.  Just sayin'.

Jacobs for a 25-yd catch and run!!

 #+ #+

We are not running the ball at all. RTR!

Ruggs (with a sore hand) gets the catch, and another first down.

Tua is 13/14 on 3rd down passes.

YET.

"Aggies are taking chances, blitzing, etc to disrupt the offensive blocking..."  Eli

That'll pay off with big plays.

Biblical rain continues.

 :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

Someone just posted from the Ole Miss game that "Noah is collecting 2 land sharks for his Ark."

DAMIEN HARRIS FOR A GREAT RUN TO THE 1.

 #+ #+

TUA!!!

TDDDD! RTR!

Touchdown Tua (on his legs)!!  14-7.

(https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/539275533088206848/qgWrY9P2.jpeg)

TV is back!!   #+

Great answer to a good offense from TA&M. RTR!

Well this stuff of watching the game is fun. RTR!

The O may need to carry us today. We're missing a lot of tackles.

Doggone what is going on with our defense? We are letting TA&M hang around a few yards at a time. RTR!

Welcome to the SEC.  No easy outs (except OM).

This is good stuff; enjoy!

Whew, open WR for Aggies.  Bad pass.

Buggs!  S-A-C-K

I believe A&M stole our punter!

 :o :o that boy has got a leg. RTR!

All this jumping around. God down field. RTR!

Holding killed us.

 :(

maybe we need to see if we have some down field stuff. RTR!

Go down field? 

Otherwise you're asking for Divine intervention, Preacher.   :lol2:

OMG!! The dink & dunk passing attack has returned.


 :panic: :panic: :panic:

We need to make some good halftime adjustments and step on the gas in the second half.

Saved by the flag!  Whew, PI saved a TD.

gosh they just stand and let this boy run. RTR!

We look human.  This ain't Ole Miss!

Loooong field goal by A&M:  53 yards............ GOOD.

Bama 14-10

They keep hanging around. I hope we can have a little better offense play this trip. RTR!

Hentges for a catch and touchdown!!

(https://imagesvc.timeincapp.com/v3/fan/image?url=https://bamahammer.com/wp-content/blogs.dir/187/files/2016/01/ncaa-football-cotton-bowl-michigan-state-vs-alabama11.jpg&c=sc&w=850&h=609)

Hentges gets him one!!! WOOOT!!!!

OK now north and south is working. RTR!

I am also wondering if Tua is running so much what Jalen might do against these guys running. RTR!

East and west on that drive too, Preacher.  It all worked, especially that New England offense: TEs.

 #+

Haha! I think Chech is faster than Hentges.  :lol2:

I wish Verne would show up just long enough to punch Gary in the mouth.

We should have A&M setup for our running game now.  Defense needs to step up!

At one time, my friend, but NOT!!

I'll petition for "smarter".   :lol2:

Eli says they're clogging the line.  You're right, our turn now.

I'd love to hear him mangle Tagovailoa!

Mond again for 35 yards.

Adjustment time!

Somebody needs to tell 33 if you dive you lose. RTR!

I thought Jennings had the RB.
But that guy has 3000 yards rushing for a reason!!

 >:(

Mack is the man! RTR!

Field goal again by A&M after a D stop:

Bama 21  Aggies 13.

 :popcorn2: :popcorn2: :popcorn2:

CNS will correct the "Mond is running free" situation, I'm sure of it.

DAMIEN!!!!!!

East-west pass to Damien for a HUGE first down and big gain!!

Bama gets inside the 20.

Jeudy inside the 10!!

 #+

Hentges getting faster with each TD.  #+

Big Hale 2 TDDDDDDDDDDDDDD's. RTR!

Another TD for Tua: Hentges again!

Perfect pass.

Bama 28-13.

(http://www.ladiesliveandlearn.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/alabama.jpg)

The 52-yd pass and run to Damien was HUGE.  Great run by Damien; breaks tackle and goes waaaaay downfield.

 #+ #+

Bullethole makes the FG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :jump: :jump:

FG by Bulovas from 47 . .  GOOOOD!!!

Well done offense and we HAVE a kicker. RTR!

The O line is so different from other years. They are great protecting Tua in the pocket. Tough to excel in the run game when they are stacking the box, though.

It's been a Hale of a day so far.  Nice looking kick by Bulovas there.   Hopefully we can keep Mond in a little better containment the second half.  We could really use Terrell Lewis this game.  

Enjoy the ride.  Should be fun.

 :)

Maybe we need that 12th man on Mond that we keep getting penalized for!   :lol2:

Ok I will tip my hat cause WOODS is 13 under. RTR!

I'm really surprised we haven't heard Deionte Thompson's name called today. I'm guessing TAMU is throwing away from him.

Guess those of us planning to watch the taped version are .........  :'(

He's made plays on the running game.  But we're using a lot of nickel D, so it's not like last week.

Tua: 17/20 passing for 239 yards and 3 TDs.

 :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship:

Anybody out there calling for Jalen??

Perfect pass to Jeudy for a first down!!

 #+ #+ #+

Gosh we looked very sad there. RTR!

Trying to establish a running game.  We get stuffed.

TURRIBLE SHANKAPOTAMUS PUNT: 13-yd punt.

 :(

Well that was disappointing. Let's see how our D reacts.

Maybe they're awake.   :dunno:

There's #15: unsportsmanlike penalty.

Sack by McKinney!!  Ends that drive!

 #+ #+ #+

Looks like we made some good adjustments on D.  8)

Good call, Coach 2.   :worship: :worship:

Does anybody see us giving away our plays? RTR!

Irv Smith again, waaaaay down inside the 20.

 #+ #+ #+

Irv again; inside the 5!!

We cruising, baby!!!!  :dance:

Jacobs 3 yards on a "walk-in TD" (Eli Gold) for a TD:

Bama leads 38-13.

(https://i2.wp.com/www.ultimatesportstalk.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/bama2.jpg)

North and south sure does work for us. Even though we ain't running the ball at our best. RTR!

Aggies played well, but they're in deep doo-doo.

BRING IN JALEN!   :-*

Their picking us apart right now. We gotta tighten up. RTR!

 :lol: :lol:

You're cracking me up, Preacher!

 >:( come on defense. Blow somebody up. RTR!

Moses ran into a fan and is hurt.

Crap!

Ran into the wall.  :(

Was a security guy pinned against the wall.

Moses may have a compression fracture; hope not.  CRAP!!   >:( >:(

Lord please don't let this be serious. Let him just walk it off I ask your Will and healing here. RTR!

Moses is up; other guy is aching!

Savion Smith though he had the interception, but the ref ruled NOT.  Either way, another field goal for A&M:

Bama 38  A&M 16.  "Playing against Vegas, Jimbo?"

It looked like #4 took that ball away. RTR!

100,000 Bama fans agreed!

Wow, bad pass on 3rd down.

"Put in Jalen!"   :lol2: :lol2:

Tua must be getting tired. He has played a lot. RTR!

Another bad punt: 31 yards.  WTH??

Apparently he's exhausted.   :lol: :lol:

CNS needs to put out a call for punters at the school. RTR!

Not until we get our 50.  :lol2:

Buggs sacks him again!!

 #+ #+

TY defense. RTR!

Hey, we're watching an ELITE athlete.  I'm just pulling chains!

(http://www.woollyal.com/core/images/smilies/troll.gif)

SHUT UP GARY!!!!!!  >:(

Well, I do want to see Jalen.  That means Tua's work for the day is over.  :lol2:

Post of the day.

Ruggs on a jet sweep to the goal........

well, maybe OB at the 8.

NO, TD for Ruggs.  WOOT!

Bama 45-16.

Counts as ANOTHER TD for Tua!!

(https://i.pinimg.com/736x/cc/bc/92/ccbc92ea77c1e131faf001aa638152b1--sexy-cheerleaders-football-cheerleaders.jpg)

Wow, great pass and blocking. RTR!

Gary still thinks it was a run.

A Tua TD pass, DOPEY!   :lol2:

We've got 45 points.  We need a big play before Jalen takes over and runs out the clock (only a quarter left!!).

 :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

Jalen needs to get us to 50 to keep our streak alive. Off to a good start.

If we gonna get 50 we better stop the idiotoic penalties. RTR!

We've got 481 yards.

I'll be short again; 488.

DeLong ain't JK.

 :dunno:

Dude, we just started the 4th quarter.  :-*

Tua has 387 yards passing!

The defense is good for a TD if nothing else.

Dylan just announced his arrival. BAM!

Whammo!

What's your word?

We have fresh legs in but they are still looking good. RTR!

BLOOM!

Our backups are in.  Jimbo still playing against Vegas.

 :tinfoil:

He better take out his QB if he doesn't want to change jobs again at the end of the season.  :lol2:

Ok the refs are cheating and we can't stop that. RTR!

A tackle by the jersey is a HORSE COLLAR??

 :dunno: :dunno:

Why wasn't that intentional grounding on that series?  Doesn't the ball have to cross the line of scrimmage?  It was clearly at least a yard short.

That does not count against our defense. The ref's now have what they bet on in gambling. The ref's cheated to get that TD. RTR!

Mond runs it in for a TD.

Bama 45  A&M 23

We need a TD to get beyond 50 and ruin Jimbo's efforts against the spread.

 8)

It is not HORSE COLLAR unless it as the neck. RTR!

If there's a receiver in the area, it's okay.  There was.   :unsure: :unsure:

Was indeed, a BS horsecollar call.

The tackle box also comes into play somehow.  I believe he was outside of it, so maybe it doesn't have to cross the line in that scenario?  :dunno:

Najee runs for a good gain.  Nice.

 #+ #+

I believe you're right.   :worship: :worship:

D needs to score now.

 #+ #+

Well, the defense is going to have to run one in for us.  >:(

I said I wanted to see Jalen AFTER we got our 50 points.  :lol2:

I wonder if CNS will work on punting this week? RTR!

Hey SC I think today proves without any doubt why Jalen is on the bench and I actually think he knows it too. At least he should. RTR!

Why would he call T.O. RTR!

Great win, but the D needs to step it up a bit. Tua is unbelievable. He will win us games even if our D was turrible. It's great to be a Bama fan. A friend of mine, who is a Ga fan, said we would kill them.

PLEEEAZE.  :facepalm:

Jimbo calls another time out with 1 second to go in order to give us 1 more chance for a pick 6!  :lol2:

Whew boy that was close!  Almost got a sack scoop and score.  :lol2:

It was there for the scoop.   :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:   :'(

Ok I apologize. Yes something happen and my computer locked up. As a preacher I should be setting an example whether we win or lose. I hope we win all games but I hope my computer don't lock up again. God Bless. I still don't understand the T.O. that was used. RTR!

That may be one of the best quarterbacks that we will face this year.  Bama played a good game on both sides of the ball.

Roll Tide!!!

Jalen didn't really look like he wanted to be in there.   

Except the Boog Heisman candidate.   :dunno: :dunno:

 :lol3:

A horse collar is where the ball carrier is tackled by the collar area of his shoulder pads.  That player's jersey stretched out quite a bit making it obvious that it was NOT a horse collar...

That's what I thought too.  Need to Google to read the NCAA version.

ROLL TIDE!!!  4-0!

Roll Tide

We knew the offense might have to win an early game.  DONE!

 #+

Tua may not play an entire game in the regular season unless LSU shows up in Red Stick. What a talent and what a receiving corp. This offense is as good as it gets. Kudos to our team for an impressive offensive performance. The D seemed to play better in the second half and I only see them improving as the season progresses.

Hopefully, over the next few games, our dinged up players can heal and get back up to 100 %. It's a great time to be a Bama fan!

^^^^^^^^^^

:toast4:

Retweet!

I would like to have been a fly on the wall at halftime: ooppsss, maybe not. RTR!

We moved on to ticks, Preacher.

See the halftime thread.

FINAL SCORE:

BAMA 45  AGGIES 23

(https://78.media.tumblr.com/9248845a74863067abf4a7ef452d38fa/tumblr_p77plfWwgE1vilnh6o1_1280.jpg)

HORSE-COLLAR RULE clarified:

The refs were right.  NCAA: "All players are prohibited from grabbing the inside back collar of the shoulder pads or jersey, the area, or the inside collar of the side of the shoulder pads or jersey, and immediately pulling the ball carrier down."

Stupid, but they were right.

 :-[

#2 apology. I thought the jersey was free game but there again I was wrong. I am glad someone knows the rules though. RTR!

Mr Google

I saw his talk on U-tube this morning. He knows we played a good team. You could hear it in his voice but he will be hammering mistakes this week also. RTR!
