    This is very accurate. So much it hurts.

    One more to add. During Jones tenure his teams seem to play to whatever level the opponent forces them to. If the injury problems continue this team will have 2 more games where the opponent will be in the game late.

    Remember in 2012 when we beat NC State pretty convincingly and all the VN folk came out to let everyone know that UT was back and just as they had predicted all along that Dooley had trusted the process and gotten us back to the top? I think our early victories this season have a very similar feel. UF and UGA totally suck. Those are hollow victories, made more significant really by the previous years of failure more so than anything related to current prestige.

    This is true.

    We have barely beaten every team we have won against. I have no doubt we drop another game or two.

    South Carolina is really the only one I could imagine us losing. I could see them shutting down our offense then getting a couple big plays and winning an extremely ugly game. Doubt it, though.

    Vandy will be a slug fest.

    This. Just this. All day long. Hurts my heart because I love this school. It is a sad truth.

    Against Kentucky we'll probably completely open up the offense and let Dobbs fully loose (you know, now that he's out of eligibility and we don't have to worry about keeping him from getting hurt so we don't lose a well below average passer) and we win that one by a zillion. Whooooo!

    Bama had best day rushing in thirty years.

    On the bright side, we won't have to worry about our DC leaving for a head coaching position.

    Yesterday just further demonstrated how well ran Bama is. There are seriously only a handful of coaches that can run a program that well.

    This is not a who ya gonna get post, just a frustrating realization. Bama won't be dethroned until Saban retires.

    I'm just glad we saved Colorado the embarrassment of hiring this guy

    I agree. Meyer is the only dude close and Harbaugh might be there but has to show he can last four years somewhere.

    I think this morning my loathing for Jones has hit a new height. And knowing we are stuck with this idiot just makes me apathetic.

    I'm still hoping he will leave on his own

    Have to win out and win SECCG or play competitively in it to have a legit shot of that happening.

    I'd put Peterson on the cusp of that upper tier.

    Alabama had a 99.9 defensive efficiency rating for the game. Tennessee has 1 turnover and still loses by 39 on their own turf. Outsiders looking in and checking the box scores say wtf.

    If a couple of plays go wrong, this season could have been 2012 all over again against any team that mattered and without shitcanning the idiot in charge.
