    I don't think anyone is saying he isn't involved. He's involved but doesn't make the final decisions.

    Ireland, Parcells and Brian Gaine are all very involved. Jeff pulls the trigger.

    I am really impressed with McClain, not so much with the highly touted Earl Thomas. He's been caught out of position, afraid to take on Ingram (not that I blame him:) ) and he's given up on a few plays tonite. Very timid-looking. Alabama's D-line is ballin'. Then again, you should be playing against a freshman backup QB. :yes:

    Yeah, McClain's had a pretty nice showing tonight. I've been impressed with everything but his blitzing - seems pretty limited in that regard, but I'd love to have him with the 12th pick!

    Now it gets interesting...two possible PI calls passed up by the officials. They are letting 'em play tonite- not too many penalties called overall.

    Wish I could say I were a die-hard Tide fan, but I'm not. I respect the program a lot - you can't help not to they've been so good over time - and really like several players: McClain, Ingram, Dareus, Arenas, etc. but truth be told I'm an Ohio State fan.

    In a weird twist though, I'm one of the very few who doesn't really like Jim Tressel that much, and I can't stand 99.9% of OSU fans myself.

    When they call some one a true freshman, what does it mean?

    And the 2 pass interference calls that weren't called against al sucked.

    It's their very first year at the school. They haven't been redshirted for injury, academics or otherwise.

    Just started watching this game but it's being recorded. How have the guys looked on both teams? I'm looking forward to watching this.

    McClain has looked solid - a bit sluggish when he blitzes though. Marcel Dareus for 'Bama has had a big game - knocked McCoy out and picked off a shovel pass and took it to the house. Ingram and Richardson looked good in the first half but Texas' has stepped it up.

    Earl Thomas is his normal self - he had 1 poor effort on a tackle, but I've become a fan. Nate Newton's boy has impressed me a little running the ball for Texas, but just about everyone on 'Bama's D-line has played well. Cody hasn't played much due to the spread. Muckelroy's played decently well, even Kindle's added a pair of sacks though IMO that's more due to Muschamp's scheme and excellent coverage downfield.

    Julio Jones and the entire Bama passing game have been quiet.

    Nice!

    Huge Earl Thomas fan here. He's so good IMO. Seeing Cody miss snaps doesn't surprise me, as it seems like it happens more and more the last two years.

    I heard about McCoy being out, that's going to be interesting if there's any damage.

    I saw some posts here that said Sergio Kindle has looked good tonight? Is that true? If so, it's about time IMO.

    TX has finally clawed their way back into the game, Shipley with the TD.

    Sergio Kindle has looked quick, but lacks sand in his bucket Alen.

    Yeah, Kindle did have one blitz where he was untouched - late 3rd or early 4th, cant remember for sure. The other one he was matching Peek at the line and McElroy didn't see him and he got him, but it was a coverage sack. He's played alright - par for the course I'd say.

    Man, this would be some comeback if Texas actually pulls this off. Say what you want about Jordan Shipley, but I've never seen him drop a pass. I'd take a mid-late round flier on him if we didn't already have Brian Hartline.
