Alabama thumps Oregon by 30 points. Mark it. Alabama's defense is as fast as Oregon offense. When Alabama shuts down the running game, what does Oregon do? Throw interceptions? I think so.

Wow... Ain't no way Bama scores enough to put up that type of lop-sided victory!
And I think there are about as many people as you can count on one hand that are as fast as Oregon's offense..., and they aren't on Bama's defense! :D

I really hope we get that game for the Championship!! It has the potential to be an alltime great!!

1. The defense will score 14 points by themselves.

2. The kind of fast you're talking about only counts in the open field, something that Oregon won't see.

3. Even more convinced Oregon's defense is fraudulent.

OK... You're typically pretty insightful on this stuff, so, since you are SOOOO certain of your opinion, I'm going to gracefully back out of this and simply hope we see these two teams in the Championship game!!

I'm not insightful. I'm woefully biased and overly confident. I don't know how I'm not on ESPN already.

Once Sutton went down we had no chance. There is no depth on the defensive line.

Not an excuse.

Graham says this team is mentally strong.


Id say they proved they are as mentally weak as you can get. They lose 1 guy and completely implode.

On both offense and defense.

How the heck is that even possible?

Pretty sure it had everything to do with the loss of talent and not the loss of intensity or focus. They weren't making mental mistakes. They were just flat getting beat. ASU is that bad in run defense, as I've been saying all year.

Any chance Pennel will be reinstated? I had hoped he will be able to offer some help before he was suspended.

Okay, now that's the funniest thing you've said on this forum. And you frequently make me laugh.

Pennel was back practicing with the team today.

He's practicing on the scout team, and I'm almost certain they will make him jump through some serious hoops before he sees the field. I wouldn't be surprised to hear he's doing laundry or something. I definitely don't expect him for UCLA. If he is, I think CTG loses about a ton of credibility on his discipline meter.
