Southern_Bills Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 Congratulations to Georgia. Bama defense got outplayed in the 4th, young receivers did not help. Quote

I don't fully understand what's confusing you here. Are you a big time Bama fan? Touching is not the same as controlling. So if that exact play happened at the end of the Super Bowl and the ball is caught by a WR in the end zone that team would and should lose because they can’t advance a fumble? And tat wouldn’t be a big deal? Put another way: Control is a spectrum. The perfect QB with the maximum possible grip on the ball can drop it in a bucket 60 yards away. A slightly lower amount of control and the bucket gets knocked over. This QB was losing control of the ball when his arm started to move forward but had not lost all control because the ball had not left his hand and it ended up going forward. That can only be because his arm at some point began moving forward when he had some measure of control of the ball. That is physics and nothing else. If someone were to say he did not have “enough control” that is an entirely different statement. The judgement of that then becomes entirely subjective which I view negatively. It was not a shock to me that the judgement fell in Bama’s favor. If a Georgia player happened to be standing where the ball landed and caught it do you think it would have been called a reception or a fumble recovery? 1 Quote

I think you're on an island with this, and I guess I commend you for sticking with it? Quote

Saw his miserable face on the sideline so I looked it up. What a fall from the top that guy had. From NFL head coach to collegiate offensive line coach. Couldn’t have happened to a better guy. Yet another reason I’m so glad Alabama lost. 2 1 Quote
Bill from NYC Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 Congrats to UGA and their fans for a well deserved victory. They are a great team with a great coach. If all goes well The Crimson Tide will be back next year healthy and improved. 1 1 Quote
GunnerBill Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 (edited) Just watched the highlights. Pleased for Georgia. Think they deserved it. They were the best team in the country this year. Edited January 11, 2022 by GunnerBill Quote
eball Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 What a great 4th quarter! So happy for Stetson and the Dawgs. Bama has had their share. Quote

Doc Posted January 12, 2022 Posted January 12, 2022 I saw a stat that Metchie and Williams accounted for 37% of Alabama's offense. 1 Quote
