You can keep a wooden stake in your trunk
On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk

In what world is this Bama team a 7 point favorite over any team not named Vandy or Mizzou?

Pitt may not score 8 points in the game!

Fair question.  I'm just not ready to write them off entirely.  They still have a boatload of talent.

Would not surprise me at all.  Seems like one of Buzzy's locks.

Well, that's only going to result in one of two outcomes.  Selfishly, I'm rooting for the implosion of the team, of course.

ETA: Milroe named the starter for Saturday.

Some doofus on over on Tigerdroppings said this was a calculated move by Saban to exhibit that the two backups were significantly worse than Milroe.  Claims that Saban did the same thing at LSU with Marcus Randall, Matt Mauck and one of the Clausen kids.

Little Lawd FauntleSaban's response to Lane Run a Train

Quote
“Kevin Steele is the defensive coordinator,” Saban said. “He has all the defensive coordinator responsibilities. The only thing that we tried to improve on from an administrative standpoint was gameday administration of getting the signals in quicker. So that’s the only thing that we worked on together as a staff. The whole staff made a contribution to it and I think it was a lot better in this game than it was in the Texas game.”

Agree. So Ree's leaves the Irish and it turns out he's no QB whisperer. All three QB's stare down receivers like they were able to do in high school.

I have been overly critical of Thorne the first 3 games, which is disingenuous on my part when considering all the factors, but one thing I have sang his praises on is that I see him actively working through progressions with sound mechanics when he has time in the pocket to do so.  I saw him looking for his 3rd option on more than 1 occasion in the first 1/4 of the season.

Notre Dame loses Ree's and Buchner to the Tahd and gets transfer Sam Hartman from Wake Forest and everything is golden for the Irish.

I'm still trying to understand the throws from the three yard line before halftime which resulted in a field goal.
Know that was a coaching decision but it was rather dumb on their part. And it's something TAMU saw which takes that element of surprise off the table.

Definitely were just trying to be cute and get chemistry down with receivers.  I didn't feel like it was going to sway the end result, so I was okay with it.

The fact that he had to respond shows that Lane got exactly what he wanted out of that....whether it works or not, hes on Saban's mind.
