    It was most decidedly not a good game, other than the outcome. The Crimson Tide offense has scored 1 (one) offensive touchdown in the past 3 (three) games. I repeat, 1 (one) offensive touchdown in the past 3 (three) games.

    Were it not for the highly rated defense...

    Yikes...does defense win championships? Yes...if you can score points. SEC title game should be a doozy.

    They shouldn't have tried to kick over that "mountain", twice! Talk about "Rocky Top!"

    I enjoyed this weekends football schedual. Not too many suprises other than The "U" lossing to Clemson. Alabama needs to start watching their back. As Jeff mentioned, the offense has been stagnet lately.

    I wish it were just stagnant. It seems to be backing up.

    Oregon looked last night. Ran the ball for almost 400 yards. Beating USC by almost 4 touchdowns is damn impressive any way you look at it.

    Slow weekend for me, The Crimson Tide was idle, preparing to stomp LSWho next weekend.

    Jawja wore black jerseys last year against the Crimson Tide and lost handily. They wore black helmets against Florida yesterday and had their butts handed to them.

    I think they need to try some other gimmick, wearing black ain't helping them at all.

    Interesting butt whipping Argon handing to USC (West).

    I had expected USC (East) to play a better game against Kiffen and Company. I am thinking that the Old Ball Coach may hang up his cleats this December.

    I was greatly surprised that the Cow College played Hoddy Toddy as well as they did. I guess Nutt can't rely on Snead like he thought he would be able to preseason.

    How about that interception by Iowa State? It hit, how many, 4 other players before caught by the fifth. Reminded me of a pinball machine.

    Bowden and the Criminoles squeaked by one of those North Carolina teams. Looking at the score earlier in the game, it looks like ol' Bobby pulled one out of his butt.

    Vols played a good game yesterday. It's time for Spurrier to realize the game has left him behind.

    Well, The Crimson Tide faithful were able to sing the Rammer Jammer again this weekend, as LSWho went down in flames. The Crimson Tide was able to find some offense and Julio Jones ran a 78 reception to paydirt. Mark Ingram continued his march toward the Heisman with another 100 yard day. The commentators kept calling this game a game of attrition, but the only players I saw them hauling off of the field were wearing yaller and preple.

    What happened to Iowa? Northwestern?

    Darn, Notre Dame lost to the Middies. Breaks my heart.:p Looks like Weis will be hitting the unemployment line come December.
