From Athens - Game Day Friday # 4

Good Day All,

My sincere wishes for a speedy and complete recovery for Coach Saban and Alabama A.D. Bryce as they recover from Covid-19.

As Kentdaddy posted and I agree.... using Larry Munson’s thinking... will the absence of Coach Saban be a motivation for the Tide players... win one for Nick... hmmmm....

As for the game.... again avoiding stupid penalties... turnovers...and brain farts....become even more important..... can’t give the Tide any easy gift points.... extremely important that we play two complete half’s.... start fast and continue to execute... on offense and defense.... remain focused and get a hymn.

I am confident that the HC and several assistant coaches spoke this week with Pickens on a range of issues...

It would benefit Georgia greatly if George played this weeks game in Tuscaloosa at the level he did in his Sugar Bowl MVP game.

Big stage... National TV..... time to man up and ball out.... please....

Success... Is when opportunity and preparation.... meet ...

Pause and give thanks... Much to be thankful for...

Continue to check on your family and friends often..

Have a safe weekend and week....

As always “Go Dawgs “

I dont want to hear any excuses from the Bama faithful tomorrow night!

GO DAWGS!!! GATA!!!

Word now is Saban tested negative....

Possibility of him coaching Saturday... can’t make this stuff up....

Stay tuned....

I too hope Pickens can play at an elite level Saturday, but that will probably require Stetson to be able to deliver the ball accurately over the top.

As killer as he has been on the intermediate routes, his biggest shortcoming this year has been accurate passes 35+ yards down the field.

Not trying to knock him but rather just give an honest assessment. Look for 'bama to play a lot of under coverage and dare him to deliver the ball over the top.

The Saban Covid thing was a ploy I bet. He is shady and not above using some BS motivational tactic.

I wouldn’t be looking/countingon for Pickens for anything...the kind of guy that will let you down.
