Kalen DeBoer ‘ON THE BRINK’ at Alabama + Texas are THE CLASS of the SEC 👀 | The Matt Barrie Show

[@nickinoelle5331]

This year, as a Bama Fan, I’ve been told I’m a masochistic Bama fan because I thoroughly enjoy watching my team almost get beat. I enjoy it even more when we find a way to get that W. I didn’t expect us to be so dominant this year because Coach Saban leaving, of all the top players who transferred out like Isiah Bonds to Texas or Caleb Downs to Ohio State, all the parity….This is the first year with Coach Deboer. I’m going to be realistic for now on and not live in delulu that we will win it all perspective. If we win ugly, I’m happy either way. A W is a W.

I like Kalen DeBoer. He deserves a little time to work his plan for the team.

Players look like they are giving 60 to 70% instead of 100%. Discipline is nowhere in sight and stupid penalties are costing this team big time. Our defense is downright sleeping on a lot of plays, especially the secondary. No pressure on the QB giving them all day to make plays. The first three games, I thought both sides of the team played with intensity and coaching looked on target. These last two games look like we threw all that out the door! ROLL TIDE!

For yall saying defense they saved the game the only flaw was not getting off field on 3rd down. They forced 4 turnovers, 4 sacks, 7 tfl no one is talking that. The scheme 4-2-5 is taking talented defensive players out of what they can do. If Bama ran 4-3 it would help tremendously. Offense put them in bad positions. They played well forcing 2 punts and to on SC first 3 drives(the offense scored only once). Then they give up a TD on a 4th and 9 and following possession force a fumble after the Milroe safety. Milroe immediately throws a INT and SC gets a FG to end half. To open up 2nd half run defense was bad SC drive and defense had chance to get off field on 3rd and 6 & 3rd and 15 and 3 3rd and short result SC takes lead. Offense goes out and punts, Bama forces punt Milroe throws another INT and defense forces another fumble. Bama scored off the TO and they stop SC drive with the miss FG. Offense scores again what should put game away but not getting 3rd down stop and a chunk play along with face mask and SC gets the 30 yd touchdown you will give up those plays 9/10 when a wr is 6”5 240 pounds. Special teams blunder the onside and defense gets back on field and forces GW int. So please stop the harassing of D. Yes their are problems just like every other team has in the country, yes this is not Sabans defense (he is gone get over it we had 17 great seasons but this is a new era).

Everyone is beatable any given Saturday, just ask Bama, and Tennessee. The great teams overcome adversity, and finish. So far Texas has done that, and deserves the number 1 ranking. Texas gets up for big games, they won't come out flat against Georgia, they were looking ahead a little I think to Georgia, but they will never admit it. The only rust on Texas was on Quinn,who was out almost a month. Any quarterback thrown into a huge rivalry game as their first game back from injury will have some rust initially. They played one bad quarter and got it together. The haters don't talk about how both Bama and Georgia both had games they started slow in. Texas is no different.

@@Allen-hg2hu Texas deserves their ranking. All I’m saying is OU has a very solid defense and they made Texas look human. If OU had an effective offense they could at least have made it respectable, maybe 34 to 20 or so, who knows. OU is not a top SEC defense. They are good but they are not Georgia or Bama.

Clemson in the 2020 playoff is probably the last BIG win for RD.

[@dustyflair]

PF is nuts. Lane is loyal now and even built a house and so did his brother who is on the ole miss teet now too. LK aint going anywhere but DOWN.

[@tacticalmattfoley]

He's now known as Kalen Dubose until he proves different.....

[@redmysterio7456]

Why is nobody talking about Kirby pulling a Woody Hayes?

[@glennruess3324]

Like boxers in a brutal fight, did Bama & UGA take so much out of each other they're both not the same after that game?

[@gregjohnson6329]

As always, love the show. Man, PF was biblically apocalyptic today, and that’s why he’s great. MB. Whoever is doing your hair/makeup on the ESPN show, have a chat. You looked like Clay Aiken last night. In fact, do your own like here. muy bueno.

[@seanstew1137]

The Miami Hurricanes have the #1 offense in America. If Lance Guidrey can get the defense, the secondary to be specific, playing better The Miami Hurricanes have a wonderfulull oppurtunity to win a national Championship. LETS GO CANES BABY!

[@treyjones5240]

How come sports pundits never have to answer for all their overblown takes early in the season? Why is it that when a college football coach does something dumb, we continuously criticize them them, but when one of these ESPN analysts makes a stupid comment and then goes back on it two weeks later, they don’t have to eat crow? It blows my mind how they wanna give an award for the best team in the first half of the season. Who cares? play the game on the field.

[@defaultname3125]

Finebaum has been claiming the dynasty is dead for Alabama since 2014. The boy will cry wolf until one actually appears.

[@ThomasWayne4312]

tDecline is real at Bama

[@danielgalloway8735]

It is stunning to me that you "experts" were proclaiming Bama as unbeatable after the Georgia game. Now they won't win again and DeBoer is done. They haven't played well over the last 2 games yet, they have 1 loss as does every other team in the SEC aside from Texas. Finebaum is ridiculous.

[@dustyflair]

I think Lane Kiffin reminds me of RAINMAN and Beamer reminds me RAINMAN jr.

[@blakefreeman9919]

We had good crazy games all day. Go Dawgs

[@vids5374]

Paul Finebaum needs to say Alabama 50 times per interview he will lose his bonus.

[@derekeady3119]

Forget bonus, I think his contract would be ripped in half, right in his face.

[@ggtacticalandoutdoors]

Hook'em from Cypress, TX!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@shakurj]

Dawg that's Houston 😂 🤘🏾

[@pestyoverlord]

Finebaum is so weird. He just goes with the popular sentiment. He was hot on deboer now he's cold. Anyone that watched husky football knew this was coming. 😂

[@cctompk1]

Texas A&M just sneaking around too, no one talking about them.

[@nowbandnyc]

“Milroe is not throw the ball away in the end zone and making it a safety [under Saban]” Uhhh dude I love Saban and Milroe, but Milroe ran 15 yards straight backwards to take an unholy sack once every five plays last year. Milroe has improved RADICALLY this year. Stop the soundbite BS, man.

[@TempeSoldier123]

I’m a die hard Bama fan, born and bred, but Georgia and Texas are the class of the SEC, not Bama. If Bama and Georgia play again, Georgia would win by 20.

[@coyote23]

Who remembers Finebaum saying Saban lost it last year and yet he took his team to the semi-finals. He knows nothing but ratings….😂 😂I

[@nathanupchurch6594]

Seeing Finebaum whine about Alabama is hilarious. Glad to see Alabama playing like they did before Saban.

[@jessesewell7922]

Things get a lot easier to understand if you admit that Carolina has a top 3 SEC defense. No team has been as clearly victimized by bad officiating as SC. The MS game was a disgrace. The scumbag crew working that game refused, flat refused to call holding on MS. They completely negated the SC pass rush.

[@MTbone7]

Bama is now a perpetual 10 win team like Penn State, ranked in the top 15, lame

[@derickclemons369]

Saban not coming back y'all. Our new coach has his way of doing things and he will recruit players that will uphold his program.

[@kmarks97236]

Wow, that’s all the time you put into the Oregon game? What a crock of 💩

[@mickelkobeck7376]

Now Kiffin will REALLY start his flirtation with the Gators.

[@jsigur157]

I think it's the injuries for Ga and I look at the Clemson game and how they dominated Clemson and have since been a team barely handling slightly above avg teams

[@Matttaylor016]

All American OG out. Best pass rusher out. 2 of the WR suspended. Plus no game wrecker on the DL

[@chriselion7584]

GA definitely needs to get health. You got both Robinson’s down. Best O guard out. Center out. 2 receivers kicked off the team. Williams needs to get healthy. Mondon needs to get health. Other D lineman out as well.

[@silvergold2140]

Ole Miss, Loses 1 Game, But Here Comes Good Ol' Lane Kiffin, Hold My Beer, Now With 1/2 Of The Season Gone, And Ole Miss Is Done As Far Making The Playoff's
