I barely recognized Bama...

Earlier years under Saban you could count on Bama being a Run Heavy Offense that was Disciplined and relied on seniority / Juniors & Seniors.

But tonight was Freshmen making plays all over the field / some QB from Hawaii throwing bombs to every WR not named Ridley. Their Running game was largely abandoned in the 2nd half.

And Discipline was appalling, #48 M. Brown punches a Georgia kid in the face then goes to the sidelines and tries to fight his own Coaches?! But then he goes back onto the field and make a gruesome, yet legal, clothesline tackle.

Nick Saban actually smiling in on field interviews before the game?

The whole night was surreal. The only Bama like qualities I saw from them tonight was a tough Defense that shut Georgia down in the 2nd Half, and the miracle luck that is uniquely their own.

#48 Mekhi Brown. Should have been shown the locker room, then de-scholarshipped.

Dudes wingspan tip-to-tip is longer than I am tall. He also walked like a caveman. But he is one nasty football player. He shore didn’t take any **** from his coach on the sideline.

Saban’s comment after the game:

Q. Could you talk about what happened with Mekhi Brown in the third quarter and whether you considered putting him back in the game after that?

NICK SABAN: What are you talking about? The penalty that he got?

Q. It looked like he had a confrontation with a staffer on the sideline.

NICK SABAN: I really don't know what you're talking about. The only thing that I have said to Mekhi Brown was you got a penalty. It was after the whistle. For pushing and shoving, which was an emotional decision, which is selfish on his part that penalized the team, gave them the ball on the 40-yard line instead of the 25-yard line. I just asked him if it was worth it.

He went back in the game, though, and played and actually made a tackle inside the 20 on the kickoff. So in a time where we have a lot of things to be happy about, it's kind of amazing to me that you would pick out one little negative thing and even ask about it. It's so insignificant to what happened in the game.

I wish the staffer/coach would have been Scott Cochran.
