Bama's on now vs KSU. no score yet on ESPN. Since ND won. I will watch more. You?

Bama losing to KSU by 10 early.

I was hoping it would last but I think that Bama is awake now. k State looks more motivated but Bama has way more talent.

Having 5 stars in all your skill positions helps. The talent gap is easy to see. 

punching it in. 14-10.  Big talent plays big unfortunately.

thats why ND has to keep trying to recruit the best players or players that can turn into the best players.

No Bama senior opt outs? Crazy man.

Agreed. Morrison scares me, his phone has got to be blowing up.

Good news is in his interviews you can tell he's an ND fit.  Well spoken. Strong family background, anything's always possible but the 3 or 4 for 40, the value of the ND education should resonate.

That’s helpful. I think NDs NIL position definitely favors keeping players so if we can get them here we can keep them.

Martinez did have a few carries though so he must just have a small group of plays.

Posted the opt outs above, but both teams are pretty good (roster). Bama will be missing 2 starters (one LB IIRC, can't remember the other). I think KSU is without 2 too. IMO, both coaches/teams taking seriously. Most Bama fans I know are let down (no CFP), and care less lol... But don't want to lose either....

Young is worried about his draft position (wants the #1 spot). Stroud is improving in mocks lately.

Yup.

Howard has started the second half of the season, so not a bid deal that Martinez is out anyway. But yes, saw at least 2 runs from him.

I read that. I was thinking more of NFL opt outs. Bama has a fair number of guys going to the NFL but they are all playing.
