I very seriously doubt Saban would say something like that. The man is ate up with "the process", so there's no chance he'd say anything that might cause his team to take an opponent lightly.

That's not to say his players don't or won't, but it's not gonna be because of something he says.

If so when and where did he say such a stupid thing.

Would be surprised if he said something like that, he builds up every opponent Bama is about to play, so I don't think he would say anything negative about any team on their schedule.

Play some of the 2's and all of the 3's.

Build some experience for next year.

Rest up the starters and get them healthy.

This not the same team that beat #1 LSU. Not skill-wise, not talent-wise, not coaching-wise.

We must beat Vandy.
I really wouldn't play my starters. There is no upside and I don't care what people think about it. We can't afford to lose a single starter.

I think Kent State and Bamma agreed last night for 10min qtr's in the second half just to get it over, and I assume Kent was trying not to get their players hurt

A forfeit would be best. It's going to be around a 40 point win for Alabama if not more. UK can't afford any injuries with Vanderbilt coming up next.

Who cares?

An L is an L this year, despite the final score.

No moral victories. We have a very thin route to 6 wins and that should be priority number one.

Lose Johnson, Boom, Snell, or a starting oline just for one week and Vandy becomes a much tougher win.

Same with a couple of defenders - Jones, Ware, Pringle...


Losing to Bama by 3 TD's or 5 means squat this year.

I'm with you on the numbers end but not on the human end, starting the backups would be the equivalent of sacrificing the weak to protect the strong(er)...it would be a slaughter.

It's just football.

Snell is a frosh as is our left tackle they would be fine.

If our 2's and 3's are this fragile then they need to be replaced asap.
