00:03 Bill, I gotta tell you, I was watching that game.
00:05 I thought they were gonna beat Michigan once they were up, like they were.
00:07 But boy, a very rare Nick Saban team sort of fell flat.
00:11 Odd play calling, I thought, at the end of the game.
00:14 Some of it had to do with some mistakes that they made,
00:17 very specifically the center.
00:19 And he ends up leaving and going in the transfer portal.
00:23 You know, Milrose seems to me, Bill, like a good but not great quarterback,
00:28 which is enough at Alabama usually.
00:30 But given the nature of transfers and everything else,
00:33 it's not a stacked deck for Alabama like it used to be.
00:36 >> No, it's not.
00:38 And that was the most eye-catching thing for us in Big Ten country was,
00:43 in the past, in these heavyweight fights between the Big Ten and the SEC.
00:47 And you could argue the heavyweight fights this year between the Big Ten and
00:50 the SEC, the SEC wins up front.
00:53 Michigan pushed Alabama around in the first quarter.
00:56 Alabama wasted a half of that game trying to figure out Michigan's pass rush.
01:01 They had five first half sacks.
01:03 Now, I know Alabama made adjustments, had a fourth quarter lead.
01:06 But Craig, I feel like had Michigan not had all these special teams meltdowns of
01:11 fumble and missed field goal, missed extra point,
01:13 that they may have won that game in regulation by ten points.
01:16 So I think Michigan was the better team in this game.
01:20 It's a really good Michigan team that we keep thinking,
01:23 this is when they're gonna get them.
01:24 It's like that movie with the villain.
01:26 Nobody's got the villain yet.
01:27 Maybe Washington can do it.
01:29 But as we were talking before the break, I'm not seeing that one either.
