- Alabama leaves the most impressive resume on the CFP Committee’s desk: -Four wins against CFP Top 25 teams. -Three of those wins coming via double-digits against LSU, Ole Miss, and Tennessee -Beat the No. 1 team in the nation. -End a 29-game winning streak
- For Nick Saban to lose Bryce Young and Will Anderson and hire two coordinators that some thought were not fit for Alabama and he wins the SEC Championship shows one thing: Saban still runs college football.
- Devonta Smith has more catches (60) and receiving yards (1,120) than Ceedee Lamb of OU (46-999) He also has more touchdown catches than Michael Pittman Jr. of USC (13-11), but he is not a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award. Absolutely crazy.
- Jalen Milroe’s message to the CFP Committee: “Was Georgia the No. 1 team? We just beat them, so what does that make us.” He ended the statement “LANK.”
- Former Alabama players in the Pro Bowl RB Mark Ingram - Ravens CB Marlon Humphrey - Ravens S Minkah Fitzpatrick - Steelers S Eddie Jackson - Bears WR Julio Jones - Falcons RB Derrick Henry - Titans LB Dont'a Hightower - Patriots
- DeVonta Smith's trophy case for 2020 SEC Offensive Player of the Year AP Player of the Year CBS Sports Player of the Year Sporting News Player of the Year Walter Camp Player of the Year Maxwell Player of the Year Biletnikoff Award Heisman Trophy It pays to listen to Nick Saban
- Alabama is about to bury opponents in the CFP with Will Reichard not getting the Groza, Dallas Turner not getting the Bednarik Award, and no Tide player on the Walter Camp All-American Team. LANK on full display now.
- Dont’a Hightower is the perfect reason why you choose Alabama. 3 Super Bowl rings 2 BCS national title rings 1 SEC Championship ring Dude is blinged out. #BuiltByBama #SuperBowl
- Kalen DeBoer kept nearly everyone in Alabama’s 2024 class except: -Julian Sayin (5-star QB) -Jameer Grimsley (4-star ATH) Very impressive work from DeBoer and his staff.
- Damien Harris, the ambassador for Alabama football, speaks on Tua Tagovailoa and what this program shoots for under Saban.
00:00 - Once again, Alabama lost to this LSU team by 5 points and Tua Tagovailoa was not 100 percent.
- The Alabama football reunions in the NFL based on this draft: - Dolphins: Jaylen Waddle/Tua Tagovailoa -Broncos: Patrick Surtain II/Jerry Jeudy -Eagles: DeVonta Smith/Jalen Hurts -Patriots: Damien Harris/Mac Jones
- Alabama QB Jalen Milroe is the SEC Championship Game MVP. He quotes former Alabama QB Jalen Hurts by saying “we had a purpose before anyone had an opinion.”
