[QUOTE="Scioto, post: 4019238, member: 12310"] As we've learned, the excuse for not winning the 2014 Sugar Bowl and getting dominated by Oklahoma was (from Saban) paraphrased - "we weren't in the national championship game and didn't care." Now, after the 2015 Sugar Bowl loss and domination by Ohio State, Alabama's excuse (first from Kirby Smart) was "we didn't respect the quarterback" (this after not respecting Trevor Knight in 2014) and now (from Saban), the NFL gave out its draft grades on 12/15/2014 and the Alabama players didn't want to get hurt. That's a real good one. A classic right there. I guess Ohio State didn't have any players up for the NFL draft this year. Ezekiel Elliott wasn't going to get drafted so he didn't run out of bounds on that 85 yard dagger. Evan Spencer wasn't going to get drafted so he, a wide receiver, leveled those two Alabama LBs on that run. No, wait a minute, Evan Spencer did get drafted. How much is Alabama paying these coaches? Oh well, I wonder what the excuse is going to be this year? Anyone care to offer up any? Where is Spur Hunter when you need him? Whatever happened to him? [/QUOTE]
