Bama was 7th in SP+ for a reason. This isn’t your usual Saban team. Michigan is exceptionally well coached, has great play in the trenches, and has terrific play calling, but they can be beat by both UW and UT

A Michigan national title would suck for us in recruiting as they are our biggest competition. Hopefully Harbaugh jumps to the NfL regardless.

That RB motion to flats has been a Tommy staple since Notre Dame. You would’ve thought there would be some twist he adds especially since it failed all night
100% has. I remember Tommy running that play against probably Michigan in 2012.

Good game

- wow is ND unlucky . They play the ( Najee Harris / Brian Robinson | Devonta Smith , Metchie , Mac Jones team) + jaylen waddle waiting.

This team, has Tommy Rees and has a center channeling John Sullivan (college version) can’t even snap it to the qb . This was the year to be good . How’d that Georgia game happen?

They've done more with less than we have so yeah, it would be scary if they started eating our lunch on the recruiting trail.

I actually think it’s pretty damn impressive what Tommy was able to do with Milroe considering his limitations. Without major improvements, he can’t be a QB on a national title team in a regular year (this year is down overall). Kid can’t read a defense and struggles with any pressure. Have to think they have a better option maybe they just hand the reigns to Sayin and Milroe transfers.

If we had an OC with a tick of a brain our record would have been better.

As much as I hate seeing Michigan win, I am still happy they left out FSU so we didn’t have to watch them win by 50.

I’m just glad we’ve turned the page from Parker. Qb play and passing game was lacking in hard games

It was open but the guard pulling makes me scratch my head on that… but I’m not an x and o guy. Looked like run blocking
If he followed the pulling guard he probably makes it in easily.

The right defensive tackle beat the guard to the middle where Milroe was headed. But that didn't even matter because the right OT got blew up and pushed back so far that the OT tripped Milroe himself.

The center was absolute trash snapping the ball all night.. how tf do you screw up that many snaps?

Secondly, any bit of misdirection from Michigan & Bama’s defense was completely out of place..

Horrible coaching & bad execution on the ball.

Michigan winning the natty will feel as bad as ND losing the natty to me lol

It simply cannot happen.
