I bet there are a lot of u.t. fans that would like to have had Bama's 10-2 record last year.

I'll second that notion......and add, what was that Vandy/UT score this past season??........also, when you have 12 National Championships and numerous NCAA records we're allowed to live in the past!!!

 

As for the forum question, who cares? But I believe it will be Maryville simply because I've not heard too much about BA's talent level this year....and you can bet if they had it, they'd tell you loud and clear.

BA is loaded with talent. We have the past few years, as well. Talent has not been the problem. I think the problem has been DII is very tough and we just haven't got it done as a team.

"What does that mean?"

 

alabama has 6 actual national titles.

oklahoma has 7, & notre dame has either 9 or 10.

 

the reality is nothing to sneeze at,

alabama is unquestionably one of the top football schools in the us.

but somewhere along the way

someone went back and collected every time they got a #1 rating in any poll

even the tuscaloosa local paper poll,

and called them all national titles.

they have it on a bunch of t-shirts and stuff,

i think some of them may even take it seriously,

but it is kind of a joke to everyone else.

 

all murvul would have to do is go back before the playoffs

and find local newspaper articles stating that particular teams were "the best in the state",

call those state titles, print up t-shirts and hats, and voila

18 state titles.

Yup.......those mythical national titles nobody was aware of.....at the time these titles were supposedly won, most folks had no idea who the teams were.......our media wasn't what it is today for promotion.......heard all about the mythical titles last year.......

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
