Last of '05

Well here we are at the last day's of 2005. I hope this year has been as good for you as it has been for us. I apologize for not posting since the 15th of December but I was on a much needed vacation. The wife and I went up to Virginia for a few days and had a great time. We even stopped by Virginia Tech University and let me say they have a very nice campus. There stadium was sharp looking as well. I will hopefully have pictures after the first of the year. Now about the Tide. We got Earl Alexander since we spoke last. I think that is a great pickup for the Tide. Football is going toward the more athletic QB and I think we are heading in a great direction with a kid like Alexander. Just a few more days till the Cotton Bowl. I really feel good about our preparation. Please remember to join Tide Blog on the 1st of January. We are going to have an all new look. This will be the last post with the old look. Come January 1st we will also be joined with new post by Mindless Ramblings and if we can locate Red Bama Hat ( He went on vacation and hasn't come back. RED BAMA HAT if you read this make sure to have your new post in by the 1st!) we will have a new post by him on the 1st. If not by then I have been assured he will post by the 2nd. At any rate let me say goodbye to '05 and hello to '06. Remember check back January 1. MARK YOUR CALENDARS! Roll Tide Roll!

Merry Christmas!!!

Going on a little get away next week so this will probably be my last entry until after Christmas. I want to take this time to thank each and everyone of you for stopping by Tide Blog this year. I want to also thank my partners in this. Mindless Ramblings and Red Bama Hat. You would not believe the work these two guys do. They have truly made this site special. Speaking of Mindless Ramblings he is already on a much needed vacation so we will probably not hear from him until after Christmas as well. Now with all that being said.
Please Don't forget about January 1. We are launching the New Tide Blog. Join us January 1. Tide Blog 2006 is almost here. Don't miss out.
We will be discussing the Cotton Bowl as well as giving you our predictions. January 1.
O.k. I guess that's it. Oh wait! Merry Christmas everybody!

The Day After.

Well here we are. The Day after the Big Tebow announcement. I don't know about the rest of you but I am in need of some good news. When Tebow said "The University of Florida" it was almost like seeing Brodie go down again against Auburn. It was just hard to take. All of this has put more pressure on Shula and company to win the bowl game. We must finish this season strong. A loss in the bowl game and I think recruiting takes some more serious blows. Finish the Season Strong!

T'was the night before Tebow

T’was the night before Tebow and all through the town, not a creature was stirring not even a hound. The Cotton Bowl tickets were ordered on-line and it cost me all of my very last dime. When all of the sudden it becomes very clear, Chris Smelley is leaving, oh my, oh dear. I awoke from this nightmare to hear on ESPN. Tebow is coming! Let the Barn fear Bama again!

Roll Tide Roll!

Slow Week....

I cannot believe that we are at the end of the College football season.  Time flies when you are having fun and this year was fun. Now I know the last two games have left a bad taste in our mouths but let’s not forget where we were only 2 short years ago. We are getting better and that is what counts. Of course I say that with this small asterisk beside it. *Shula must beat AU soon. It is a must win game! Enough about next year though, still one more game on the horizon. The Cotton Bowl. This game is already being considered by some to be one of the games to watch. I think it should be a very interesting match up. I will have more about this game as it draws near. But I will say this. Bama should make sure they are a lot more prepared for this than they were against AU. If not it could be even uglier.

SEC Championship Game

Well the SEC Championship game is Saturday. Still can’t get over the fact that Bama is not in it. I guess there is always next year. This game could really be a good game though. I mean both teams have played a great game of Jekyll and Hyde this year. One week they are playing lights out, the next week I wish some one would turn the lights out so I wouldn’t have to watch. However I do feel like Georgia is the better team. LSU has too many problems with their receivers and drop balls. (Sound’s a lot like Bama doesn’t it?) Anyway expect a great game. Look for Georgia to pull it out in the end.
Georgia 31 LSU 24.
