SIAP, but isn't it awesome how the rules apply to everyone but Bama?

The great Canes teams had the refs inventing penalties to try and stop them.

These Bama teams can practically murder someone on the field and the refs stand there with their hands in their pockets.

Williams literally tried to rip Murray's head off as he drove him into the turf, but yeah, it doesn't count, because...Bama.

Bama was also getting held up front a lot too. OU dodged some penalties along the OL.

Maybe he pushed off? There is no maybe about it, it is right there to see by anyone with eyes.

Surtain did pass interfere, should've been called.

I think the refs were letting a lot of the contact go on both sides. I was fine overall with the non calls, it had little impact on the game in my opinion.

I'm fine with that for sure, let then play.

I always call it like I see it, it's often disliked, and love calling out people on their biased opinions.

I just thought it was funny how some were bashing a young man who many would give up their first born for when there were clear violations when there isn't much they could do. Lamb is bigger and stronger, so there isn't much one could do when they allow push offs to happen.

It is what it is. Lamb is a **** good receiver and Surtain will be fine as well.

Does anyone know how old Saban is? Bring Back Butch.

Nick Saban is 67- his birthday is in oct, Butch Davis is 67 his birthday is in nov- so Butch is about 1 month younger than Saban- Mack Brown is also 67 and North Carolina just “rehired” him as head coach- but our administration ignores Butch- I’d say go figure- but such logic is par for the course with our administration
 
Just got back from the game.

When Alabama wins next week, you can add another team to any "Greatest Team of All Time" list. This team is unreal and they look like they coast for three quarters.

Saban and Alabama are just on another level. Like I was telling my friend...we can have a Gerald Willis every year and it won't mean a thing. Alabama has 8 of him. That was the story of the night, IMO. Oklahoma has one of college footballs best - if not THE best - OLs in the country and it didn't mean a **** thing. Quinnen Williams gets hurt...they just had this little bowling ball named Mathis chasing down Oklahoma RBs down the line of scrimmage. Completely dominated the OU OL all night. Bama would play some strong press coverage (saw CeeDee Lamb legit get put onto the bench by Saivion Smith with one hand three times before Bama was up 28-0) and rush 5 and Oklahoma found themselves down by four scores.

For some reason, Saban wanted to make a show of it and only rushed 3 or 4 for the rest of the game, allowing Oklahoma to score some points and entertain us plebes who came out to see a show. Needless to say, when the worst defender on Alabama was true freshman Patrick Surtain Jr., what they have going on up there is ridiculous.

Offensively, Tua's passes are like he's playing a video game with QB Accuracy slider at 100. He really pops in person. His ability to throw with touch and lead guys and throwing to a spot is unreal for a sophomore in college. Their receivers rival any group of WRs in the history of the game outside of some of ours. Jeudy, Ruggs, Waddle, Smith are ridiculous. Throw in Irv Smith at TE. Jesus.

Incredibly impressed wish Jacobs. He runs angry and his feet never stop moving. Alabama OL is five guys who play on Sundays.

Going to watch Big Boy football like this just sobers you to the realization that we are closer to Toledo then we are to Alabama.
