Yes, his original point was to minimize Alabama's program but he got sloppy and made a factual error in regards to Kansas.

It's tough having multiple dysfunctions to deal with.

Kinda raises the old eyebrows considering the season they had last year.
It was also on a Monday night, and not on the day it was originally scheduled. I was planning on going if it was Saturday, but couldn't make it last night. I'm sure I'm not the only one.


Seeing as that 7,500 is lower than last years game, I'm going to go out on a limb and assume the date change had something to do with it.

That was quite unnecessary. Encouraging drug use is rarely appropriate.

Look, I am a bit pissed off about it. It isn't you. It's the situation. Like I said, why should I be happy that a game that was on live/free tv now being on tape delay on a station hardly anyone gets?
Just checked out the website. It should be available online for free on the 19th live:

Alabama should win the championship just for being undefeated at this point in this season.

No it's really not. It is an intrasquad scrimmage and nothing more, I'd actually say the teams who have these absurd attendance figures are those who are the most desperate to brag about their program.
