Stop me if you’ve heard this before. Alabama was a three-score favorite against an inferior opponent and lost. Seems to be a staple for this 2024 Alabama team which has clearly taken a massive step back in year one of the post-Nick Saban era.
Afterwards, social media reacted loudly to say the least, as people enjoyed watching Alabama get humbled for a fourth time this season. Here were a few of our favorite tweets.

“3-loss Alabama should have been in the Playoff” stock is at an all-time low

We are the dumbest people alive for even arguing Alabama should be in the playoffs
The haters were right, honestly great call by the Haters.
