Its a shame that we ran into a buzzsaw OSU team


That Ohio State team wasn't historically great or anything. They had been completely handled at home by 7-6 Virginia Tech and really did not deserve to be in the playoffs to begin with. Bama made every possible mistake in that game.

No, but at that point in the season, they were clicking, and had some serious NFL talent. Coming off of an annihilation of Wisconsin in the B10 championship, they had some juice.

the biggest mistake we made was not giving the ball to Henry 20-25 times.

In terms of accomplishments? No. But in terms of NFL talent? Absolutely stacked. Multiple future NFL starters all on both sides of the ball

Maybe or maybe not but don’t sound like those Bama haters when it comes to Bama making it in the postseason. They got in and won everything.

Kiffin wasn’t the only one to blame but he messed up with his play calling
