TOUCHDOWNALABAMA Video-Alabama's Motivation to Play Michigan
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTJA0sFxSUs
Interesting video from Stephen M. Smith on 3 reasons why Alabama should be motivated to play Michigan.
#1- Use the 2011 beat down of Michigan State for motivation next year.
#2- Playing a brand name like Michigan-Giving Bo and Loyd credit for that.
#3-Shut Harbaugh and Patterson's mouth. Great news here as the Tide's offense needs any extra fuel.

What did you find interesting in this video? There is no reporting or analysis. Just some dude's opinion. I clicked thinking it was the other Stephen Smith of ESPN which was probably a mistake in the first place anyway.
I will save others the time. Don't click.

Did it hurt your feelings? Typical arrogance from a UM fan as if its beyond comprehension that someone else may have an opinion. Idiot
December 21st, 2019 at 12:28 PM ^
Uh, speaking of hurt feelings...

Stephen A Smith...Thats all I needed to Know to NOT click...

Funny, I didn't click because I've never heard of Stephen M Smith, and wasn't sure if he was just a Youtuber looking for clicks.

Why would Alabama be motivated to play a "brand" like Michigan. They play 4-5 schools every season with a brand better than Michigan. I can see them getting motivated to not let a school with a "brand" like Michigan beat them (ie. don't let the 3-4th best team in the B10 beat them).

What "4-5 schools every season with a brand better" did Alabama play this year??
For that matter other than LSU, what TWO did they play "with a brand better"?? ...Western Carolina, New Mexico St ??

When did ESPN go from showing sports highlights to so much opinionated garbage that means literally nothing?
December 21st, 2019 at 1:14 PM ^
The only person here who's exhibiting hurt feelings is you.
Nobody is expressing disbelief that an Alabama fan has an opinion—some are just saying that there's nothing noteworthy or informative in his opinion.

I just clicked your post history and I have to say, you seriously are just the worst. Why do you do this to yourself? It seems like Michigan football brings you no joy, and bitching is about the only thing you do here. Maybe it's time for a new hobby.

You mean there are two insufferable Stephen Smiths whom don't know their asses from a hole in the ground?
December 21st, 2019 at 5:24 PM ^
Honestly, I thought it was a motivational video, you know, like we make. Wow, reading in the comments section one guy wrote he's going to see this as the Spring game, lol. Getting a lot of respect, I see...

SCfanblue is one of the top 5 worst posters on this board. Which is saying a lot.
December 21st, 2019 at 12:41 PM ^
Coming from you that means... Something.
December 21st, 2019 at 12:32 PM ^
Tl;dr, TL;DW

I have no idea what 3 refers to.
Also it’s Stephen A. Smith.

I thought the same thing..thats more Finnebaum Trashing Michigan and Hrabaugh every opportunity he gets...so the rest of the SEC just goes along...I live in SEC territory and trust me barely a day goes by where He isnt trashing Michigan AND Harbaugh
December 21st, 2019 at 1:17 PM ^
Unless Harbaugh is secretly tweeting smack-talk under another account name, there's nothing he's said about Alabama that would serve as "motivation."
December 21st, 2019 at 1:21 PM ^
"To me, that's preposterous. Crab Rangoon, things of that nature."

I'm sure Saban has a lot of high-four star underclassment that didn't see the field much this year and are competing for playing time next year.
If a Bama player is returning for 2020, he better be motivated.
December 21st, 2019 at 10:51 PM ^
Alabama will be motivated. The thought that they won’t be is just an excuse in case they lose. I see Michigan as an equal to Auburn. Auburn beat them and so can we. Auburn got a few breaks in that game and we may need to get them as well. I think it will be a tight game and if we win, all we will hear will be excuses from Bama fans. They didn’t want to get hurt, they weren’t motivated, Tua couldn’t play, etc. Maybe it’s because the mighty Tide would’ve been the 4th best team in the Big Ten East this year.

He completely missed the Josh Gattis angle, which is probably what Saban cares more about than anything else.
