I dont know if youve noticed but this happens every year at bama, probably lose half a dozen coaches too. You are saying this like its the reason bama wont be any good next year but if a bama fan made the same argument you would say they are always making excuses. If bama loses their bowl game and auburn wins theirs, the two teams will finish with the same record, sucking equally I guess. Your fandom has surely warped your sense of reason. And I may be mistaken but the dynasty only ever existed in your mind. If you think alabama wont be any good next year, youre delusional. I wouldnt be surprised if they are in the top 5 in the preseason polls.
