Title: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: ALTideUp on October 28, 2012, 10:05:51 AM Just visited the ESPN college fb homepage to find stories about ND, KSU, the largest cluster-f in college football that transpired in Jacksonville, etc. but not a word about the #1 team in the country beating an unbeaten SEC opponent. Hmmm? I hope we are not seeing the beginning of a media campaign to get some fresh new faces in the NCG.
Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: McBaman on October 28, 2012, 10:55:24 AM I noticed that too. Seems odd. Best way to deal with stuff like this is to keep winning games.
Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 28, 2012, 11:00:38 AM Oh boy, here we go with the "Alabama don't get no respect," or "the media is ignoring the Tide," or "how come Alabama ain't the lead story across the planet," or just fill-in-the-blank. Why can fans NEVER be satisfied? It makes me want to scream.
:facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: :facepalm: Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: XBAMA on October 28, 2012, 11:02:24 AM but BAMA dropped from 3rd to 7th in one of the #BCS computers. :lol2:
now AJ is 7th in the HT voting too http://promo.espn.go.com/espn/contests/nissan/heisman/2012/ballot/leaderboard Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: pmull on October 28, 2012, 11:10:08 AM I would disagree that we are not getting respect from the media. The big story in college football is not who should be No. 1. Everyone agrees it is Bama. The big story is who is No. 2.
Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: XBAMA on October 28, 2012, 11:22:48 AM I like this coverage :clap: http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=espn:8562258

Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: XBAMA on October 28, 2012, 11:39:59 AM I think the Domers have a voting bot :dunno:

Not a matter of dyspepsia, just a matter of fans always finding something to whine about, even though we are rated #1, EVERYONE agrees Saban is the best coach in college football, and Alabama the best program. For some fans, it is still not enough. Besides nonstop adulation, slovenly admiration & love for the Alabama program, what else do you want? I await an answer. By the way, that's how ALL fans of all programs act, it is not peculiar to Tide fans. :dog: Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: XBAMA on October 28, 2012, 12:17:46 PM I was thinking ... it could be worse , WAY WORSE :unsure:

Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: Old Tider on October 28, 2012, 12:47:44 PM I think a whipping of LSU will get attention.

My point exactly. We could be getting the kind of "attention" Aubarn is getting. :o Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: ricky023 on October 28, 2012, 01:20:20 PM Well I am satisfied where we are and I want it to be whatever they do. We just got to keep winning and that is all we need. Let us beat LSU and then there will be more and more excitement. RTR!

Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 28, 2012, 02:34:32 PM I wonder if Pat Dye will be on Finebaum this week or if he will be gone fishing.
??? Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: ALTideUp on October 28, 2012, 02:47:35 PM I wonder if Pat Dye will be on Finebaum this week or if he will be gone fishing. ??? Or Duck hunting. Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: XBAMA on October 28, 2012, 03:02:49 PM dear Pat Dye ,
just to remind you , Auburn has lost 7 games in 8 weeks. Alabama has lost 6 games in the last 5 years . that is all . thanks , The Tide Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: SUPERCOACH on October 28, 2012, 03:06:08 PM Have you checked WALL-E World? The whole first page is full of articles that were all posted since the game ended.

He never takes his crimson colored glasses off.... ;D Title: Re: Conspicuous Absence of Bama Coverage Post by: cbbama99 on October 29, 2012, 09:17:11 AM I used to have this mindset that the national media was totally against Bama. My mind has changed over the past few years, mainly due to CNS. Let's face it, what coverage did we deserve during the Shula and (to an extent) Dubose and Franchione years? Now, we are back at the top of the CFB world, and boys, it isn't close. Notice no one is arguing from week-to-week who No. 1 will be. Until (heaven forbid) the Tide loses, they will be on top. And Bama is overwhelming EVERY opponent. It stops being a top story when the No. 1 team in the nation hasn't allowed a team to get within 21 points of it and has trailed through eight games this year for a total of 15 seconds. That is domination, folks. All that matters is the Tide keeps winning. Have no fear, if the record gets to 14-0, there is no doubt who will dominate the headlines. ROLL TIDE!!!
