Bingo. That's the big take away for me.I agree with the bullet point that we shouldnt be getting blown out by anyone next year. Including Bama. Not saying that should be a game that comes down to the final drive but that should be a game where people walk away saying to themselves, "****, maybe UM isnt as far away as we originally thought from making the CFP this year! Helluva effort by them tonight in a competitive loss!"
I agree its time for us to win a **** bowl game but I would be happy with just getting back to the NY6 bowl game again too. Winning the Coastal has to be a definite goal. Beating UNC as well. Time to stop losing to them as often as we have the last 5-6 years like they are some top tier, national title winning program.
If Clemson and North Carolina were such outliers as so many claim and don't represent how great of a coach Manny Diaz is...then Alabama is the absolute perfect opportunity to prove it. No COVID season this and COVID season that, no not enough fans...and no, well hey...it's Nick Saban and that doesn't really count because "we can still win the Coastal" bull****.
Good coaches don't get waxed and forget to tackle against North Carolina, but they sure as **** don't repeat such a performance against the next big regular season opponent in the first game of the year.
