I'd hoped that Trent would have picked up the offense a bit more, but hopefully it will click for him soon.

Bonus: Manning lost and so did the Patriots.

It's Hate Week in Alabama, AKA Tennessee Week. Like the guy says, we dislike Auburn, but we can live with them. But I despise Tennessee. Vols wear orange so they can go to the game on Saturday, hunting on Sunday, and back to work picking up garbage on Monday and never have to change clothes.

Bryant-Denny Stadium was rocking last Saturday night.

People said they thought the stadium was actually swaying in the fourth quarter. Sure looks like it to me.

Crazy! That's like Century Link Field registering on seismic monitors during the Marshawn lynch run against the Saints in the playoffs a couple of years ago. I've never experienced anything like it. My teeth were vibrating and I wasn't even in the stands, but standing on solid ground in the back of the end-zone. Such an odd sensation.

That's a tough loss.

[TinkTanker]

I felt bad about this game all week. And I had said early on that I thought Bama would lose two games, minimum. I thought they'd be to A&M and LSU, but it was only fitting that Auburn would snap Alabama's streak.

That was probably the most exciting finish to any game, ever. Irony of ironies, fighting to get that last bit of a second put back on the clock, going for the impossible field goal, and having Auburn run it back. Someone commented that if they had Foster to try again, he would have shanked it too far to the left for it to have been returned. I hate it for the guy, he's won us some games, but some Alabama assholes forced him to delete his Twitter account with their idiotic comments.

Tough loss? You bet. But life goes on. Auburn outplayed us, Malzahn outcoached Saban and his staff. They wanted it more and deserved to win.

Now that Sark left for USC, Nussmeier may get lured back to Washington. I thought UW DC, Justin Wilcox,  would be a good choice, but it seems he is going with Sark to USC. Top rumors are Nussmeier and Jim Mora, Jr..

I've been impressed with Nussmeier. People here are looking for scapegoats and any time Bama doesn't win a billion to nothing, they want to blame Nussmeier. When he's one hell of a good OC. They just don't want to blame Saban, when it was largely his fault. He made some severely boneheaded decisions. Then again, had they worked, we'd be praising the guy fro being a genius who isn't afraid to take chances.
