[Parliament 14121]

Thanks?

Even if cleared medically not sure how much Waddle could even contribute given 2+ months off and, with pro considerations, doubtful he'll see the game.   But still interesting to see him back at practice.

Fields required an "injection" to play.

Coach and QB both intentionally fague on the injury.

I am guessing that means Fields should not have gone back out there to play and he is coveringfor the coach.

It makes his performance even more impressive.

It also means he is susceptible to getting knocked out of the game.

[Bama Llama 1447]

Based on what I've seen, which is every play of Bama's 12 games this year (and bits of OSU games this year plus all of OSU/Clemson), this has the feel of the Bama/Clemson game in Santa Clara two years ago, i.e., hard punch to Bama's solar plexus running game followed by 2-to-1 outscoring by OSU.  As Lou Costello said in the Wolfman movie, "I got a baaaad feelin about 'dis one."

Plus, Sark has visions of chaps girls' tight asses, padron tequila and burnt orange orgasms, so there goes his usual clever offensive strategery.  Maybe Nick has a whole secret series of plays, or the bone docs put a bionic ankle in Waddle's foot.  I'm not goong to bitch, though, unless we get robbed on a game deciding replay or some shit.  Football is the winner here.

[DoobieWah 1411]

Ill be cheering FOR Sark and AGAINST Meyer. 

Not what I wanted, but here we are. 

[horn4life 3753]

It's a situation where either either SEC dominance is reasserted by Alabama atop the heap, or the couch burning scum of Ohio State get to celebrate. God I hope Sark can recruit and coach our boys into the mix.

[Brandywine 1311]

Pulling for Alabama because of Sark.

Well, I just bought a new couch for the occasion. It's sitting in the front yard right now.

Can we get with the times?  It's no longer kosher to use that term.  And how do you "accidentally" become a....oh, wait....nevermind.

[4th&Five 41457]

How is there anyone left at OSU that hasn’t had it?

[Machinator 32097]

 

[squib 1120]

Fake an injury on defense to stop the hurry up offense----fake the COVID to get your QB's ribs healed up. 

Well Saban has a little something for that--Waddle will be healing up more as well. 

[maninblack 7974]

Play the game losers.

This game is really going to be memorable if Justin fields is out

This is the most worthless season I could imagine. I really don't give a shit if it's played with flags. Crowning a champion this year is laughable to me.

Ohio State winning a NC with 8 wins will be Peak 2020

Little Saban is BIG MAD

Bama should agree to the delay if OSU agrees Fields won't play

sure you wanna face another backup from OSU? You know what happen last time right....

 

 

[tx ind 6997]

Fuck Ohio State.  Play half the games of everyone else and encounter an injury just to hide under the COVID blanket to buy some more time.  Also Herbstreit sucks.

I don't know that he got hit anywhere he could get truly injured.  Probably just a badly bruised muscle.  Full speed helmet hit just below the shoulder.

Alabama's 2017 recruiting class is just amazeballs.  That said, fuck Bama.

Alabama 2017 Football Commits (247sports.com)

Harris

Leatherwood

Moses

Jeudy

Tua

Wills

McKinney

D. Smith

Ruggs

Mac Jones

and a handful of other starters (for Bama and likely on Sundays too)

[clapclapclap 9000]

They're gonna systemically lick doorknobs at both schools and delay the game until after NSD2, making sure we don't have a staff to steal any of their current recruits.

You are a cornucopia of weird football takes.

That is not "just below the shoulder." It's a kidney and lower ribs shot.

Yeah, those are the type of hits where you piss blood for a few days.

[ztejas 43260]

What seems tone-deaf by tOSU (if they are really the ones trying to reschedule) is that outside of Fields postponing the game a week helps Bama. Not only are you are giving the team that has played more games another week of rest, you are giving Saban and his staff another week of preparation.

Unless Fields absolutely CAN'T go on Monday, I think tOSU would be better off with Fields at 85% on the 11th than Fields at 95% on the 18th. Try and catch Bama with your momentum rolling.

[VABuckeye 2472]

I don't believe this is about Fields.  The rumors (because that's all they are at this point) are that it's the DL position group that is affected.  The DL had two guys out on Friday and the rumors are of at least two more in the position group.

That makes more sense.

defender trying to tackle with the shoulder and wrap up, qb spins, takes helmet to ribs and defender ejected.

is that your opinion from watching the still photo?

[Vic Mackey 46927]

Meh. That roid rage dude was coming in full force with the crown of his helmet. In no way was he trying to hit with this shoulder. He saw an opportunity to blow up their best player who was in the open field begging to be hit and he did just that.

Football is trying to get rid of leading with your helmet. That's what he did. Textbook penalty and ejection.

Yeah, he’s got a couple of at least cracked ribs for sure. Maybe lacerated kidney. That’s no problem, though...a little lidocaine shot like the one he got in the tent will get him through the game.

Don't forget another week of practice for J. Waddle to get back into rhythm.

[PittsburghTiger 6137]

I am 100% rooting for Alabama. That being said I think the Ohio State team that clobbered Clemson can beat Alabama. That offensive line is legit and physical. Sermon is running with a ton of confidence too. And Fields has pretty much thrown over everyone this year. Now, if he is really hurting that's an issue. As will be the Covid issues of the defensive line. Who knows what to believe there.

Alabama on defense does not seem as strong to me as they were in the middle fo the last decade. Yes, I would love them to be my defense but they just don't seem as strong at the DL and LB positions. Mac is a very good QB, but he is a statue, and that worries me. I also don't like how Alabama has relied so much just on Harris running the ball. I like the offense when it has multiple runners. If Alabama can protect Mac then I think Alabama will win. 

Those are my issues.

Just don't let the Chargers' doc give it to him.

[ousux 5586]

I'd rather he start his time here feeling like something was left on the table, and wanting to prove he's the man for the job. Yes I'm aware that means the fuckeyes get a trophy, but considering this entire clusterfuck of a rona season will have an asterisk in peoples minds, I'm ok with it.
