We're not gonna get back there next year, not after this game. Voters will remember the beat down, and I don't think we'll get through the schedule undefeated a second time with what we're losing.
This was kind of my worst fear. I really hoped we at least we could it close, but it wasn't close. Granted, we got jobbed by the zebras a bit in the beginning, but it was Bama's game without that. They're deep, they were dominate, and I'm not sure if or when we would be able to compete with this kind of team. I think the biggest surprise was how poorly we played on defense. I didn't expect we'd score more than 14-20, but this looked like a 2007 defense here. We didn't tackle well, we didn't get off blocks, we bit on the play action. That was the only disappointing thing to me, I thought the defense would keep it close at least.
In any event, I'm still Irish, love ya'll (no homo), love this university. It was a good season regardless, can't change that with this game.
