Re: Alabama Overrated?

I've skipped the first season multiple times. Until today they hadn't lost in the first season. They lost during the Championship game. The funny part is that it was this all over again:

Spoiler

By the same exact score surprisingly...

Also I thought we reached quota on the Bama overrated threads?

Not gonna get into a whole thing about it, but I don't see too many guys with resumes like that. Maybe three or four at most. I said "arguably" anyway.

Re: Alabama Overrated?

Year One: I beat them in regular season (by 1) but lost to them in the SEC Championship (by 7) (I ended up #12)
Year Two: They beat me in the regular season (by 4), but I beat them in the SEC CG (by 3) (I ended up #3)
Year Three: I swept them (both by one score) and won the NC
Year Four: I swept them (barely in the reg season, but easily in the SECCG) and won the NC (even though I lost to Florida and UF ended up winning the SEC)(I know, weird)

for the first three years, they were damn near unbeatable. i had to at parts of the games because their run game was unstoppable even when i brought 8.

I miss when the UT-Bama rivalry was actually like this...

I live near Miami. I didn't grow up here, I don't care for the Dolphins in the slightest, but I will never respect him after the way he left here, no matter how much he accomplishes anywhere.

I don't respect him either - being from Michigan, the way he left Michigan State (and the Big Ten, for that matter) is no different than the way he left the 'Phins. That doesn't change the facts. Outside of Urban Meyer, who else is there on that level in college ball? Pete Carroll is gone. Sooner fan up there wants me to say Stoops? LOL. The way I see it, it's Urban and Nick. 1A and 1B. Everyone else is just wishin' and hopin'. Maybe you throw in Brown and/or Tressell, but I think even that's pushing it if we're truly trying to nail it down to "the best."

Where's Cebby when you need him?

Thank you for actually answering my dynasty questions; I just wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing this or if it's some weird bug that makes them unbeatable in sim games.

Re: Alabama Overrated?

The question was if this has happened in your dynasty like it has in mine, but for all the people that just read the title... good for you!
