This game rewrote the record books in ways both good and bad. -- 111 combined points, the most in SEC history in regulation -- 1,370 combined yards, the most in SEC history in regulation -- 15 total touchdowns, the most in SEC history in regulation -- 723 yards for Alabama, the second-most in school history, trailing only the 833 yards Alabama had against Virginia Tech in 1973 -- 647 total yards for Ole Miss, the most ever allowed by an Alabama defense -- 13 receptions for DeVonta Smith, tying the school record set by Amari Cooper against Florida Atlantic and Auburn in 2014 and DJ Hall against Tennessee in 2007 -- 5 rushing touchdowns for Najee Harris, tying the school record set by Santonio Beard against Ole Miss in 2002 and Shaun Alexander against BYU in 1998
After winning the national championship this game feels like it happened years ago. Actually forgot about it. Amazing, unstoppable offense Bama had in 2020.
I remember sitting in a lazy boy and was rocking, eventually sitting forward, then leaning on left elbow with hand going back ‘n forth from my temples…… getting to “criss cross” like a dang child, after we win a walk around the house cursing our defense. Freaking Pete Golding…. Sooo glad he’s gone as when we did have the defense ranked high in a category it was because 2 ridiculous edge rushers and our pass defense, which despite looking horrible in spots this past season finished #2 in the SEC only behind A&M and Saban coaches the DBs. That guy wasn’t even smart enough to say “Hey Drew Sanders, switch to MLB” when Sanders came back from his injury. Don’t hate Pete, just glad he’s freaking gone.
I chose to start watching all of the highlights for this year after we won the title last night and this game makes even less sense in hindsight. Ole Miss has a good offense, but they weren't that good. I'm just going to chalk it up to Kiffin knowing exactly what to do against us. Strap in; guys. These games against them are going to be heart attack games again like they were under Freeze.
As we all know, the defense has to improve massively right away for Bama to come out with a win over Georgia this week. This was statistically the worst defensive performance in Alabama football history and I think everyone agrees that it was a shameful display. With the exception of Najee Harris' fumble, the offense played a nearly perfect game against one of the worst defenses in the country, but that won't be sustainable week after week. We heard a lot of talk from the defensive players this offseason about how much they had improved and how they were determined to reestablish the Alabama standard - time for them to back that up.
Nick was weirdly upbeat in the postgame presser. Distressingly so. This was a BIG12 like game and I do not mean that in a positive way at all. If the Tide had plays like this against UGA they're hosed.
@@thomasdaniels6824 yes sir he did, but with the way that offense played the rest of the season all the defense had to do was show up and stretch. We'll know how good they are come this fall when the training wheels come off. Roll Tide.
Alabama's offense was scary good this past season. The defense improved through the year, Alabama was playing many very young defensive players in covid year with less practice and were playing against a coach who knows Alabama's defensive tendencies especially in the secondary. They did play their best in some big games like 2nd half against Georgia and during the playoffs.
Mike Gottfried n the Kansas Hawks did this in '84 against the #2 Oklahoma. The new indoor facility was complete that week, plus Homecoming Week. Special teams went to field to practice, rest of the team practice inside. Special teams I believe had exactly 30 minutes then off to locker room at the stadium. A down burst came down exactly when leaving the field. Oklahoma n HC Switzer were on field when all this was going. Well long story short KU 24 OU 8. I know this to all be true I was the coach on the field before during n after the game.
Alabama did look bad on defense. No doubt. But Ole Miss isn't getting enough credit for how good they are on offense. They are outstanding. Reminds me of Oklahoma in recent years. Incredible offense but horrible defense. Alabama has to play better. We're more talented than what was shown.
Hard pill to swallow: If Nick Saban doesn’t change the scheme of his 3-4 Defense, Alabama won’t win another championship. It is no way Will Anderson is the only decent pass rusher we got. Play the freshman and other studs riding the bench because this way is obviously not working. This is Saban’s defense at the end of the day, not Pete Golding...
Yeah but the defense should’ve never been as bad as it had been with Pete. Never should’ve lost Drew Sanders (or completely wasted Demouy Kennedy’s 5 star potential at MLB) as when Turner takes that job you immediately tell Sanders he’ll still be getting playing time at OLB but will switch to MLB in offseason. You don’t start Moody over Lawson, don’t have a run defense not even ranked in the top 40 when it’s the exact same players that played both seasons before it with ‘21 being a top10 rush defense. Damon Payne(still young and played sparingly, but someone wasn’t getting the talent outta him/Tim Smith/Anderson/Turner, all 5 stars on the line with big ass Oatis in the middle. 🤦♂️
You know it's amazing nobody talked about how good Ole Miss is just how bad Bama defense is. I think a lot more SEC teams are going to be in trouble when they face Ole Miss....
Tbh their record doesn't reflect how good they are, especially on offense. And given the covid circumstances and being Lane Kiffin's first year. They're going to get better. These guys can sleep on Ole Miss like they always do. It ended up costing them 2 wins in '14 and '15. Lane can turn them into a powerhouse and battle Bama for the West if he can recruit.
@@SalvationCOD bro I believe ole miss is going to beat Alabama next year at Tuscaloosa and our defense will be better improved ready this time around and Lane Kiffin is going to be the assistant that beats Nick Saban not the other assistants he will end his undefeated assistant streak and the last time Lane Kiffin was in Tuscaloosa was with Tennessee he had the game won until those blocked field goals
That's a Pete Golding defense for ya! Break, don't bend! Players out of position to make plays is D Coordinators fault. With the talent Bama brings in EVERY year, there's NO reason our D gave up this much. Good thing Golding is GONE!!!
Worst defensive performance I have ever seen as an Alabama fan. It was me I would first start every backup next week and fire Goulding. Those guys don't even look like they're trying.
Congratulations Alabama on beating my ole miss rebels this year and congratulations on winning the national championship next year we are going to beat you’ll and our defense will be improved this time around and Lane Kiffin is going to be the first assistant to beat Nick Saban we have a new mission too national championship time
It’s a whole lot harder to stop the run and pass a against a QB that can move like Corral. Very smooth scrambler plus y’all need to remember Kiffin got to go against Saban everyday for 3years and that’s when we had a #1D every year so he knows things bout saban that no one else knows. Think about this Kiffin went against Kirby Smart,Jeremy Pruitt and Nick Saban everyday in practice so he’s got a hell of a good offensive mind! Roll Tide!
He is an average coach.Alabama was really young on the defensive side of the ball.Saban will be out for blood next year.They will be out to prove a point .Mississippi isn’t on the same level as Alabama.
Mississippi defense is even worse than Alabama’s.The Alabama defense will reap the benefits of playing so many freshman on defense this year.Mississippi won’t go into Tuscaloosa and win next year.They will lose by 24 points.No coach benefits more from a perceived slight or a loss than Nick Saban.
But hey, our defense improved just enough to not slow down the team, and we dominated en route to 13-0 national championship. Can’t ask for much more. But yes, I did feel the exact same way after this game was over
I remember everyone said if we woulda Had Tua with that 14/15/16 defense we wouldn’t have prolly lost a game. No we got an offense and Mac10 gunslinger and double deuce is loose najee Harris back there and we ain’t got no defense lol 😆. You gotta love the irony! Roll Tide Roll!
2013 was not even close to the best defense Alabama has had. They were shredded by both Auburn and Oklahoma. 1992 is Alabama's best defense and possibly the best defense in college football history.

This was basically a big 12/pac 12 caliber game very high scoring and lots of yards

I swear if Ole Miss would've recovered that onside kick, I would've smashed my TV.

This game was stressful for 3 and a half quarters.

NAJEE HARRIS NEVER FUMBLED TO THIS DAY!!!
Im just so glad that we had waddle for this game
I still say Kiffin had our signals cuz there's no way they went toe to toe with us for so long with that mid Qb 😅

Things worked out
Seems like Bama did ok
Looks like you were wrong
24:55 I bet Nick did not wanted him to score just go to the one yard line & run out the clock instead....
This game still pisses me off. But I’m still road tide 4life
Saban goes from stellar defense to stellar offense you can have both Saban

Watch Dylan Moses this entire highlight. Just watch him🤬🤬
647. I don't care what the offense did, but 647. Does anybody know if our '92 defense is still eligible to play? Round 'em up!!
