How Alabama Crimson Tide Can Recover from Oklahoma Defeat and Jalen Milroe: Key to Auburn Game?

[@mitch6352]

This loss was so hard to handle because we literally had "everything" to play for and "everything" to lose. Then to basically be a no-show coaching and players alike is troubling.

[@BeardedPicker]

There seems to be a lot of hate on Womack...defense gave up way to many rushing yards in the first half, but only 10pts. They adjusted and only gave up 52 yards rushing, 88 total yards in the 2nd half, even being down Lawson, the defensive play caller. The interceptions were the killer. No interceptions and adequate refs make it a different night. The offense was awful.

[@BornTrespasser]

True. That’s exemplary of a “bend don’t break” philosophy

[@dannywright6657]

Agree 100%

[@jamescampbell9533]

If we take out mistakes Oklahoma fumbled in the red zone, dropped a gimme td pass and missed a field goal. Add 17 points to their side too.

[@briangreen256]

Milroe showed on that attempted tackle that he doesnt care for the team! He really believes he is more important than the team concept!

[@BornTrespasser]

Yeah that’s really disappointing…

[@alberttang6955]

That was an acceptable sliding tackle in a soccer match, but not an acceptable attempt in college football. 😅

[@RoyFeagin]

​@@BornTrespasserNot true! That was a sorry attempt!

[@ReadySetRandall]

I really like Jalen Milroe as a person. I see him standing at the tunnel entrance at halftime many games greeting all his teammates. The weird part is that what I see and hear from him doesn't always translate to on the field performance. I will also say it's hard to put all the blame on him when the offensive line is playing so poorly. When coach was at Washington I believe his teams played down to lesser opponents as well and it appears that this team plays down to its opponents. If Oklahoma had been a top 10 team I think Bama may win by two scores which is why this team is so strange this season.

[@williamhess5631]

I guess it's official. No matter how bad Milroe stinks up the field he won't get pulled. There must be something we don't know about going on. Maybe the team has threatened to not play for Ty for whatever reason.

[@wizza2315]

The dirty little secret that NOBODY talks about but EVERYBODY knows about was the USF game last season & WHAT REALLY HAPPENED BEHIND THE SCENES! Milroe was playing horrible so he announced on Monday (the week of the USF game) Milroe wouldn't be starting & Tyler Buckner was going to start. From 4 or 5 people who were actually there, Jalen Milroe didn't exactly take the news very well! Meaning he basically went ballistic, raging, and went off angry while being very disrespectful to staff. The folks inside the loop said that starters for the USF agreed to dawg it as revenge for Saban starting Buckner. O-linemen were heard saying they wasn't going to help Tyler Buckner. It was a culture statement from the players to Coach Saban for benching Milroe! Of course throughout the game Milroe was seen encouraging the other qbs giving them high fives & etc...but it was manufactured for television to cast him in some great light. I've heard from people who are REALLY close to Saban say that incident on top of all the other stuff was why he ultimately retired. He realized after that debacle that with NIL being in play, the PLAYERS have more power than the head coaches now

I was at Raymond James stadium and my immediate thought on several plays was that I was seeing sandbagging, including a potential touchdown pass.

I've been surprised that there has been so little public analysis of that whole situation.

[@mark_a_vigil]

That's not the only play Milroe didn't want nothing to do with an Oklahoma defender. Watch the game again and look at everytime after the first few hits. He was dropping and protecting himself from being hit. He didn't want any of the smoke.

OU fan here. How can you bench Milroe? Your offensive coordinator kept trying the same damn plays for 3 quarters with no success. There were passes over the middle that were successful, but, for some reason, your OC kept trying to force the run with Milroe. Now... were some of these RPO plays that Milroe kept himself instead of passing? I don't know, but if that's the case, then, yeah, he should have been benched.

[@mswwalker12345]

During the game, I was texted by a friend who was beside himself. My reply was, " I guess I just don't care anymore, and I hate this team for it." I believe NIL has created an environment in every locker room that makes it impossible to consistently get the kids mentally ready to play. Our team obviously doesn't care, so why should I? My guess is they'll play well against, and beat, Auburn. But honestly it just doesn't matter anymore. Maybe next year.

We need qbs who can the offense w/out making stupid mistakes! Milroe stares down receivers, never reads through his progressions, has no touch on his passes, gets happy feet & thinks he can out run a whole team instead of throwing in the 1st row & losing 25 yds from a sack! On 1 play he had enough yards for a 1st down but instead of going forward he ran backwards & was tackled short of the 1st down!

[@jimedwards2511]

OU fan here; A few thoughts; The OU game was one game, put it behind you and move on. OU has a great defense and I blame the loss on Alabama's coaching staff. That was not a Saban coached team in Norman Saturday. Milroe is a very good QB, he had an off night as did his team. If you want to see inexperienced QB's watch OU's play. You will appreciate Milroe after you do that. Alabama has a lot more athletes than Auburn, they will win the iron bowl. Lastly, the SEC is like the NFL. Any team can beat anyone on any given Saturday. Texas only beat Vandy by 3 points. Kentucky beat Ole Miss and almost beat Georgia. Florida beat Ole Miss. Alabama is probably the most talented team in the SEC and nation.

[@rogerwilcoshirley2270]

no reason to be disgusted, these things happen to the best and Alabama is still among the very best. Coach is not a joke, hes doing a good job for year 1. Obviously very important for the entire coaching staff to harshly critique themselves for this loss but/c it obviously was not just losing but the bad way they lost and they were badly outcoached. The staff was way too slow in determining what was going wrong and had no meaningful responses. I think playing tiny Mercer the week prior set the stage. I would get the cupcakes off the end of season schedule, it derails the needed toughness and intensity required for the final stretch of very difficult opponents now with an almost entire season of experience.

Jalen Milroe set the tone of the game on the very first drive. On second down he had an opportunity to get the first down and possibly much more but he decided to cut right and attempt to run out of bounds setting up a third and 3. On the next play a drop by Ryan and the drive was over. Milroe's leadership was nonexistent. His body language and demeanor was like a pouting child. He should have been benched for sure after he thru the interception and played 2 hand touch on the tackle. I was hoping Simpson would at least get a chance. Pathetic, embarrassing, and no heart displayed by most of the team.

[@user-tl5bk9uv8x]

I was one of the ones vouching for Milroe earlier in the season when everyone was dogging him but man seeing him not even try on the tackle. Not to mention his leadership is non existent like you said. Glad he can preserve his public image though. Sad times for us. With unregulated NIL it’ll never be the same but hopefully it’ll be a bit better once him and a few others that vouch for him 24/7 no matter what leave. Idk if he’s paying them for their loyalty or somehow earned it but it’s killing bama football.

[@LisaFitsU3]

Luke, I am not better today and neither is Alabama. I saw a replay of today's press conferences with the HC and OC's. This program does not have strong leadership, along with the corresponding trajectory. The Crimson Tide had everything to coach for and play for in Norman and either they did not care enough, or are not competent enough, to do so.

Truth is this is exactly what most people expected from this team HOWEVER it's been exciting bcuz we won games nobody thought we'd win & lost games we thought we'd win. CKD is a good coach he's only been on campus 10 months! Both coordinators same thing they've only been on campus 10 months, NOT EVEN A YEAR! We will get better we've just got to be patient something us Bama diehards are not known for but in my opinion there's not a better coach out there who I would take over Coach DeBoer. Let him get his players, his systems, staff, process really ingrained & implemented. We are just a few plays from being a 1 loss team in the top 5 right now! Vandy & Tennessee are both games we could've won! We've got a great recruiting class coming in & this young team will be experienced & ready next year! RTR 🏈🐘🏆

[@welfarequeenbrettfavre3454]

If Kalen Deboer read your post, I truly believe he would be upset with you. Because even he knows in his heart, that this team has enough talent to make the playoffs. He took this job knowing the heat and pressure that came along with it. He doesn't need anybody coming to his defense. He wants the fans to hold him to the same standards as before as mentioned in his initial press conference. He would probably say this season has been a failure and a failure it has been.

[@BamaBoy_Davis]

DeBeor is struggling with this team . He is offense first and that didn’t play well with the quality of teams he was going to face week in and out in the SEC.

The QB room will be vacant if Milroe returns next year. His draft stock is rock bottom. The key to Alabama's failure on offense sits squarely on the offensive line. The numbers weren't there. Same on defense. Three lineman on defense isn't going to stop the run. Oklahoma wasn't going to stretch the field. So they went to the run game. Alabama didn't adjust. Poor coaching. Plain and simple.

[@garynouban6453]

Milroe will probably still be a first rounder because it's a weak class and he has a high ceiling. A team will fall in love with him. His stock hasn't tanked--Anthony Richardson was the same story. Even if he comes back, Mack and Russell will still be here. Ty and probably Dylan won't, but neither of those guys were DeBoer guys. I think Ty is gone anyway.

Either Vandy and Oklahoma are weak SEC teams who Texas beat and Alabama lost to or they are teams that are better than anywhere else in the country who Texas beat and Alabama lost to. It can't be both a quality loss for Alabama and a weak victory for Texas.

[@tyutsey3541]

Milroe is a cancer to the team. Simply put.

If you are putting your daily mental health in the hands of a bunch of 17-21-year-olds that you have no control over, it may be time to re access your priorities.

[@lynnwilliams5432]

As an Alabama FB fan and a college Basketball fan can’t wait for Nate Oats to follow his team. I have out of state HS / college grandchildren that provide the biggest thrills…..in Basketball.🏀 I am very competitive myself and it just my nature to suffer losses and not a mental health issue!

[@_eburgess]

Milroe for some reason tried to trip the guy and that would be a flag.

[@zacharybinx5443]

Sorry you can't tell me that the wounded duck to Isah Bond on 4th down was a catch. We should have never won that SEC championship last season and should have never been to the playoffs.

[@RickStockberger]

Who is going to show up this week.....Dr. Jeckel or Mr. Hyde? This is the most inconsistent team that I can remember. You can prop up Milroe if you want but that was a abismal game for him.

[@bcracing204]

We don’t deserve to play in a play off, bowl game or high school game we totally embarrassed by this team the only thing we can do is pray for Devine intervention.😮

[@jmua8450]

What nfl team is insane or desperate enough to draft Milroe??

[@user-tl5bk9uv8x]

Hopefully someone if we are lucky. Been held down by him for too long.

[@BamaBoy_Davis]

We're supposed to be getting better not regressing plus Milroe on tge 2 yardline runs laterally instead of sticking his dam foot into the ground and just go

[@mark_a_vigil]

Give Oklahoma credit for making Alabama look like that. Oklahoma affected them it's not just Alabama played poorly. They were forced to play that way because Oklahoma made them.

[@treanthonybryant1758]

Nahhh play calling was terrible

[@informationnpec-rp5nu]

[@joeschmo7834]

Yeah Oklahoma owns us. They’ve always been a big thorn in our side. Much respect to them as opponents.

[@Shamutiger1967]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Roll tears!

[@sekavanaugh]

Can’t say I’m disappointed at all, I figured this was a three loss team, although coming from Georgia, Tennessee, and a slip up against an LSU in Baton Rouge. This isn’t DeBoer’s players so it isn’t his team yet. Plus, there will be more transfers out, but countered with transfers in. Will Alabama contend every year, had reality is no. The current landscape of college football doesn’t set up for it, especially in the SEC where every team is better. Sure the Big10plus8 looks nice right now, but they too will cannibalize themselves, but past the top 4 what depth is there.

[@sandrahicks4450]

It's NOT THE NUMBER of losses; it's WHO we lost to.🐘

[@keithkillingsworth5674]

Milroe sucks !!!

Jarquez Hunter may run for 500 yards on this flimsy defense.

[@eddieowens4662]

I hope Jalen Melrose don't come back for one more year

[@nevillesmith426]

Inexcusable -- 11 games in and DeBoer's Bama is still "figuring out" their culture? i get it that the staff is not what DeBoer wanted when he was hired and there was portal attrition and DeBoer was hired a bit late in the day to prep for the season due to Saban's surprise retirement -- but to not make adjustments from as far back as the Vandy game that should be made at halftime speaks to a lack of basic compentence and common sense of the coaching staff! I am still waiting for the so called "offensive genius" of DeBoer to materialise. It just seems to me that all an opposing team has to do to beat Bama is to QB run on offense and on defence just spy Milroe and double cover Hollywood and Bama has no plan B. "Hey, it hasn't worked all game but maybe another designed QB run will work this time?" or on D - "hey we're getting toasted by the QB running but let's go for cover 1 bandit again." Sorry but Nick Sheridan and Kane Wommack need to be sent packing! It's like sitting in the back seat at 80 MPH and trusing your Tesla to autopilot you accross country -- foolish at best.

[@TIDEPROCESS18]

If Jalen stays I’m done with Alabama till 26

[@smittyjay212]

Hey Guys I know this may sound weird to say at the time but we have to remember that we are still doing great this first year with a 9-10 win season! No reason to complain!!

[@lukerobinson7079]

you are right...and a little wrong... big picture: we are OK... in the moment: we have blown a golden opportunity perhaps... thanks for listening!

[@joshsmith6043]

No, it isn't great.

[@smittyjay212]

​@@lukerobinson7079 I feel ya bro! We are just missing a few pieces.. Coach Deboer got this 💪🏾

[@joeyphillips1181]

Your right it's not bad.. but it's not the standard either 🤷🏻‍♂️ we expect better & so does the team.. Milroe & Sheridan need to go & we better keep our 2025 OL, QB & WR class together & keep Haynes & Richard Young & promise them more rushes with milroe leaving.. i don't blame the defense because 1. They lost 2 of the best most important players in 1st quarter. 2. They forced a turnover & played hard. 3. The offense wasn't letting them get off the field just like our other losses & they still held them to 24.. the defense isn't the problem really.. they could be better at stopping the run but aren't bad.. the offense can't sustain drives & give them a break or help them out against good defense.. it's Sheridan, Milroe & the RT

[@orlandoallen4449]

No saving without saban

[@dbeachmawmaw]

I agree with you Jimmy. Jalen played bad, but how could he play good when Oklahoma's dl was in his face as soon as he hiked the ball, almost every down. I am a huge Jalen fan and I want him to do the best, I also want the entire team to do THE BEST they can!! I have been a BAMA girl my entire life so I've seen the good, the bad, the ugly. Saturday night was in the top 3 of bad. We are so talented it makes me so sad to see these guys play so bad. 😢 ROLL TIDE!! ( always!)

[@wizza2315]

Jalen Milroe is NOT a good qb

[@gelato3299]

That’s quarterback in the sec every qb does not have a clean pocket to play in, when he does have a pocket there were drops, bad reads, and bad execution

[@joeschmo7834]

Them picks had nothing to do with pressure. They were awful reads by Milroe and those picks is what put the game out of reach. It was 10-3 before the first interception

[@user-tl5bk9uv8x]

Jimmy, your constant covering for Jalen is so tiring. He’s the only player that always has the ball. Come on. Please stop and be honest. You’re making up for being on team Ty in 2023.

[@user-tl5bk9uv8x]

He works for BoL. Do the math. He’s gotta put food on the table one way or another

[@CG-gp2bh]

No excuses coaching coaching coaching is the issue not talent. Lack of preparing the talent and lack of motivation of talent equals poor coaching
