Evaluation continues in FERC licensing of Martin Dam
Vol. 123, No. 214

Oh no, Creepy Crawly Critters!
By Betsy Iler TPI Magazine Editor
Six months has passed since Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) staffers released a Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) in the relicensing of Martin Dam, but the Commission has yet to issue a renewed license to Alabama Power Company. Celeste Miller, a FERC spokesperson in the District of Columbia office, Thursday afternoon said while no specifics are available at this time, the project is under review and the next step in the matter will be issuance of the license. “We are in the process of the evaluation of the materials, but I don’t know when that will be finished up,” Miller said. Though some implementation details for the new license were not addressed in the FEIS issued in April, Miller said the Commission will address those once the license decision has been made.

Wally Farr of Opelika-based accountants Brantley, Boucher & Farr presented the finding of the city’s 2013 budget year audit to the city council Monday night in a work session following its regular meeting. Farr said that his firm has been handling the audits for a number of years and the findings were in line with previous audits. “A municipal financial statement isn’t like that of an ordinary business,” Farr said. “It has multiple groups and in essence what we did was look at 10 different entities within the city government.” Farr said that there were some constants. The golf course and sewer department continue to lose money. Last year the golf course lost about $154,000 and the sewer fund was about $1.7 million in the red. “We have been doing these things for Alexander City since 2005,” Farr said. “In all that time, the golf course and the sewer fund have never made money. Fortunately for the city, the water department makes See COUNCIL, Page 5
Horseshoe Bend’s Ford nominated for National LifeChanger of the Year By Corey Arwood Outlook Staff Writer
Submitted / The Outlook
Horseshoe Bend’s Dana Ford, left, shown here with Tallapoosa County School Superintendent Joe Windle was named National LifeChanger of the Year.
A local teacher, and last year’s Tallapoosa County Teacher of the Year, has been nominated to win a nationally recognized award for the work she does with her second grade students. Dana Ford of Horseshoe Bend Elementary is under consideration for the 2015-2016 National LifeChanger of the Year Award. She was nominated to win the award by Casey Davis, the director of student services and public relations with the Tallapoosa
County Board of Education. “Dana Ford is an outstanding individual,” Davis said. Davis worked with Ford during his time as principal of Horseshoe Bend School from 2008 until July of this year, and his time as assistant principal back in 2004. He said that Ford takes her students’ success personally no matter the child or their circumstance, and goes beyond the classroom by getting parents involved in their children’s education. “She has the can do spirit and never accepts that a child can’t do
something,” said Davis. Ford said that she was elated, overwhelmed and shocked by the nomination. At first she said that she did not believe it. She said that she had received an email announcing her nomination, but thought it was spam-mail and deleted it. It was not until later, after having been congratulated by a colleague at a pep-rally that she realized she had in fact been nominated. Ford comes from a teaching See TEACHER, Page 5
Musclecars leave Alexander City with warm fuzzy feeling By Mitch Sneed Outlook Editor
Alexander City put its best foot forward last weekend as more than 300 people visited the area for the Aero Warriors 2015 Reunion hosted by the Wellborn Musclecar Museum and its owners Tim and Pam Wellborn. About 150 cars, mostly 1969 to 1971 Plymouth Superbirds and Dodge Daytonas, rolled into town for the three-day event, culminating Sunday with a caravan drive to Talladega Superspeedway for the CampingWorld.com 500. No matter who you talked to, the event drew rave reviews. “It was even bigger than we expected,” Tim Wellborn said. “You plan and plan these things, but until they are all here you don’t realize what that many people in one place means.
Sometimes it’s almost overwhelming. But I think it was a great turnout and I think everyone had a great time.” Cathy Winfield was at the event with her husband from Memphis. They had owned three of the cars at one time, but sold them over the years. She said they had to come and reminisce as they are looking into getting another Superbird one day soon. “We had three back in the day, but nothing like the ones that Wellborn has here,” Winfield said. “It’s like the mecca for the winged cars and to see them displayed like this, it makes you want another one so badly. We are thinking about dipping our toes back in. The kids are grown and it’s time.” Alexander City Mayor Charles Shaw was on hand See MUSCLE, Page 9

DEAR ABBY: I am a recent nursing school graduate. My husband and I have a 1-year-old, and I just found out I’m pregnant again. I’d like to get a job as soon as I can. My question is, should I tell prospective employers I’m pregnant? I don’t want to be passed over because of my “condition,” but I also don’t want to be hired and immediately inform them I’ll need time off when the baby comes. Am I legally or ethically obligated to disclose that I’m pregnant at an interview? -- A NURSE IN MICHIGAN DEAR NURSE: I think you have an ethical obligation to inform your prospective employer. However, you are not legally obligated to disclose that you are pregnant. If you were not hired because of your pregnancy, you might have a claim for discrimination. And the same is true if you were retaliated against for not volunteering the information. DEAR ABBY: My wife of 12 years, “Marie,” has a serious

Our
Opinion Aero Warriors Reunion paints city in a positive light
No matter where you ventured in Alexander City over the weekend, it was almost as if you had traveled back in time. Classic musclecars from a bygone era could be spotted in parking lots at area hotels, restaurants and fueling at gas pumps at local stores. Tim and Pam Wellborn hosted the Aero Warriors 2015 Reunion here in town and the show of horsepower and pristine American hot rods was something to behold. The exact number of cars on hand was kind of a moving target. More than 120 cars registered, but the number of cars was more like 150 with about 300 people associated with the reunion in town for the three-day run of the event. The Wellborn Musclecar Museum has always been known to the hardcore Mopar muscle fans, but since the type of cars featured there has gained notoriety through an association with Mecum’s Auctions and its television broadcasts, more and more people are making the journey to see the Wellborn collection. Those hundreds who visited stayed in local hotels. A quick check Saturday morning showed that there wasn’t a room available. Restaurants reported a great weekend between regular Talladega race traffic and the reunion attendees. Those things add up to a boost to the local economy. Local residents played a big part in making the visitors feel at home. People who attended the event raved about the hospitality they were shown by local residents. “We got in on Thursday and the people here have been fantastic,” said Dave Lolley from Washington State, who was one of four in his group that made a 2,600-mile drive across country to be here. “No matter where we have gone, the people have been incredibly nice, helpful and welcoming. This is my second time here and I always leave with a good feeling about this town. I will be back.” Congratulations to Tim and Pam Wellborn and all of those associated with bringing the Aero Warriors Reunion to Alexander City and making it such a success. It once again put our city in a very positive spotlight.

Get a jump on Veterans Day F
or the past two weeks, I’ve been in Korea and Japan entertaining troops and their families with my pals the GIs of comedy. We had the great privilege of entertaining members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines. I’ve been doing this military thing since 1992, so I know a good bit about each branch, but sometimes, I ask dumb questions. Yes, dumb questions do exist. During a meet and greet at Osan Air Base in Korea, the base commander mentioned something about golf. “Y’all have a golf course here, sir,” I blurted out. “This is the Air Force, son. Of course, we do,” he replied. In hindsight, I realize that was like asking a Navy commander if he was adjacent to a body of water. I knew better; I just wasn’t thinking. The Air Force is notorious for having golf courses. I think they have airplanes, too. One of my fellow GIs of Comedy pals is Jose Sarduy. He is a pilot in the Air Force reserves and tells a great joke. “You Army guys yell HOOAH! Marines yell HOORAH, and in the Air Force, we yell FORE!” he jokes. They do indeed have the best golf courses, but something tells me the Navy has nice golf
JODY FULLER Guest Columnist
courses, too. I’ve never played a round on a naval base, but I have played around on several naval bases, and they have the best lodging. The Air Force is a very close second, but the Navy wins by a bow. On this trip, we stayed at Chinhae and Sasebo Naval Bases in Korea and Japan, respectively. I didn’t want to leave either place. I think we stayed at 10 different places over the course of 14 days. Now I know how the fugitive felt. Yesterday, I even saw a one-armed man. Really. Our last stop was at Marine Corps Air Base Iwakuni in Japan. The Marines surprised me with the quality of their lodging, but I was bummed when I didn’t see complimentary amenities in the bathroom. I just figured it was Marines being Marines until I opened the medicine cabinet. It was incredible. I heard angels. It was like opening King Tut’s tomb had he had a medicine cabinet filled with soaps, shampoos, and golden toothbrushes.
I still give the lodging edge to the Navy, but the Marines, no doubt, have the best uniforms. Whether it’s the Marine Corps Combat Utility Uniform or the dress blues, they just look sharp. So, in summary, the Air Force has the best golf courses. They Navy has the best lodging. The Marines have the best uniforms, and the Army has the best—the Army has the best comedians, because three of the five GIs of Comedy on this tour were Army veterans. The GIs of Comedy are indeed “Army Strong.” The truth is that each branch has its pros and cons. I’m proud of every man and woman who makes the choice to raise his or her right hand to serve this nation. It’s great to be able to make them laugh but it’s a true honor to be able to offer a sincere, heartfelt, face-to-face thank you. Veterans Day is rapidly approaching, and I encourage you to thank a service member and their family today, because they are serving voluntarily so that there’s no need for you to have to serve involuntarily. Don’t wait until Nov. 11. Do it today. They’ll appreciate it and so will you. Jody Fuller is a comic, speaker, writer and soldier with three tours of duty in Iraq.

Letters to the Editor
What’s your
There was new information learned from Democratic debate Dear Editor: Regardless of whether you lean Democratic or Republican, what did we learn from watching the first Democratic Debate on Oct. 13? 1. Only black lives matter-not ALL lives! 2. College is valueless because it will soon be free. 3. Medical treatment is valueless because it will soon be free. 4. The economy sucks and after seven years in office, but it’s not Democrats’ fault. 5. The middle class is shrinking and after seven years in office, it’s not the Democrats’ fault. 6. The average family income is still declining and after seven years in power, but still it’s not democrats’ fault. 7. Black youths have over a 50 percent unemployment rate and yet, after seven years in office the Democrats have no responsibility for it. 8. About 50 percent of the population are paying 100 percent of all the taxes and yet according to the democrats they are still not paying their fair share. 9 Everyone who votes Democratic will work less, make more, get more time off, spend more time with family, pay less taxes and get more government handouts. In other words, democratic voter will live in Utopia 10. Everyone else has similar policies and so should we, notwithstanding the end results in other societies that have preached and practiced it. 11. Of course, the government wants more money to squander on promises already broken. 12. The word “progressive” is the less offensive that saying, “liberal.” 13.The ideal social models are Norway,
Sweden or the Netherlands. Consequentially, we must pattern America as such. 14. We are in a quagmire in Iraq, Syria and the Middle East and President Obama’s retreating from the area has nothing to do with the subsequent exploding ISIS situation. 15. Republicans always want dirty air, dirty water, oil spills, trash on the streets, polluted oceans, old people without medical treatment and young people without educations being paid the lowest wages possible and starving children. The GOP doesn’t believe in equal rights, are responsible for Jim Crow Laws and not Affirmative Action despite it being implemented by a Republican administration. 16. Snowden and Gen. Petraeus broke laws for releasing and not securing secret documents but Hillary Clinton is exempt from responsibility for the same offense. 17. Marijuana cures all diseases.. 18. Hillary Clinton does, in fact, walk on water. 19. Cheaters do prosper. 20. There are only two candidates given a voice in the Democratic race. 21. Hillary and Bill Clinton were born poor children and left office flat broke! 22. The best qualifications to be President is to be a liberal woman. 23. Evil looks like anything white, rich, successful and productive. 24. Agreements of any kind should be signed and committed to even if the other agreeing parties don’t live up to their obligations. 25. Everything is still Bush’s fault, even issues that arose since he left office! James W. Anderson Talladega

Teacher background. And she said that the people who had inspired her throughout her life were also teachers. She said her greatest influence was her mother, Nina Tolbert Cannon, who many knew as Nina Hunter, and who at one time was the only African- teacher in Hackneyville American. She said that she would go to school and watch her teach. “Even as a child I could see how she was changing the lives of others,” said Ford. Ford is from Dadeville and went to school there as a child. It was where she met the other inspiring figures of her life, her third grade teacher, Evelyn Johnson, her fifth grade teacher, Mary Jo Warren, and also her basketball coach and then principal of Dadeville High School, Jim Childers. “They saw something in me that I truly didn’t see in myself,”

said Ford. She moved back to the area with her husband around 15 years ago after having begun her teaching career in the Birmingham City School system. She said that moving back to the area helped her past the depression of losing her mother through telling her students and others about her and her work. This is Ford’s 15th year at Horseshoe Bend School, and her third year teaching 2nd grade. She has taught kindergarten through second grade, and she said that her experiences teaching first grade have been the most challenging and also the most rewarding. “This is not just my job, it’s my life. It’s what I love. I don’t know what I would do if I couldn’t do it,” said Ford. Ford speaks passionately about her teaching methods and her guiding principles in Paid Health News Advertisement

Alabama Power Company’s Hydro Services Manager Jim Crew reported Thursday that FERC staffers have assured him there are no outstanding issues concerning the relicensing, and he hopes FERC will complete the process by year’s end. “They have a lot of projects going on, and some of those are more controversial than the Martin Dam project. They are going through the process of putting our license together, which at this point is pretty routine, but when something flares up on another project, they sometimes need to pull personnel off the routine work to take care of problems elsewhere,” Crew explained.
Horse Liniment Erases Pain HIALEAH, FL - An ingredient often used to treat inflammation in race horses, is now back on the market in its original doctor recommended clinical formula. According to a national drug survey, the formula at one time became so popular that it rose to the top of pharmacy sales for topical pain relievers. But the company marketing the product at the time changed the formula and sales plummeted. The inventors of the original formula have brought it back under the trade name ARTH ARREST and say it can relieve pain for millions. Considered a medical miracle by some, ARTH ARREST works by a dual mechanism whereby one ingredient relieves pain immediately, while a second ingredient seeks out and destroys the pain messenger signal before it can be sent to the brain. ARTH ARREST is available in a convenient roll-on applicator at pharmacies without a prescription or call 1-877-5811502. Now at:

She said that she tries to place herself in the position of her students, and that not all students learn the same. “Every child is special and every person, child, whatever, has some special need that needs to be addressed,” said Ford.

Council enough to fund that deficit in the sewer fund.” Utilities are profitable for the city. Figures show that the water fund made a profit of $1.92 million and the electricity fund showed a profit of $1.49 million in 2013. “For power, that is about standard among the clients we have,” Farr said. “But the city makes good money on water. I would assume that part of that is that they sell to so many of the surrounding entities.” Farr also underscored the need for more help in the finance department so that the funds can be balanced monthly. He indicated that the department has been understaffed for a number of years. In its regular business meeting, the council also approved a resolution allowing the Mayor Charles Shaw to enter into a memorandum of understanding with MAB American regarding a matter of commerce. MAB is a Charlotte-based real estate development, acquisition and sales firm. While the specifics of the agreement were not presented at Monday’s meeting Monday’s meeting, it is believed that the deal would help prepare a site and provide infrastruc-

ture that would potentially attract a major retailer to the area. No names were associated with the possible retailers, but MAB American was the developer for a Publix Center in Rainbow City that is scheduled to open on Nov. 4. This agreement will replace one that was approved on June 1, which had to be changed after an alternate site was found for the potential development The council also approved a requisition, awarding the bid for a substantial sewer project on Robinson Road. Alexander City’s Ballard Construction will do the work after submitted a bid of $260,117. Council President Bob Howard said that price was a pleasant surprise. “The project was budgeted at $500,000 so to be able to get it for that is good news,” Howard said. “The fact that that a local company will get the work is event better. During the regular meeting, the council also approved by 5-0 votes: • An ordinance authorizing the mayor to execute an agreement with the Alexander City Rescue Squad for the lease of a building located at 233 Joseph St. The Rescue
Squad will continue to lease the building for $1 per year with automatic renewals. • A resolution authorizing the mayor to execute certain right-of-way easements and privileges document for Alabama Power.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Allow someone else to go in his or her own direction and see the consequences of his or her choices. An afternoon discussion you have will be poignant and important to be part of. A family member or a domestic matter needs attention. Tonight: Togetherness works. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Clear out errands and other cumbersome details in the morning. You will want to be available in the afternoon to make calls and schedule meetings. Once a conversation starts, it might be difĂ&#x201E;cult to shut down. Be intuitive. Tonight: Let someone else choose. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Try to lighten up. Recognize the real reason you might be argumentative with others; it has more to do with you than them. Stay focused on one matter at a time. Your intuition takes you down an intriguing path. A supervisor expresses appreciation. Tonight: Make it early. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Stop Ă&#x201E;ghting an inevitable difference of opinion. You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to reconcile the problem. Perhaps it is only an issue because of your unique perspective. Try to discuss this situation with a friend or colleague. Open up to change. Tonight: Go off and hear some live music. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You have a tendency to say what you want and mean it. Your bluntness also tends to push people away or create sour feelings. Pressure builds around your home or family life. Make time to listen to someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s point of view. Tonight: At home. Make it easy! PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Deal with a Ă&#x201E;nancial situation early on. You wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to postpone this situation any longer, as it irks you and gets under your skin. Communication is likely to Ă&#x2026;ourish in the afternoon. You might have a lot to say. Others will listen. Tonight: Be responsive.

Saturday, looking at the machines and meeting and greeting those on hand. He said the visitors meant a lot to Alex City. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As far as visitors, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no telling what all that means to this community,â&#x20AC;? Shaw said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mr. Wellborn has such an incredible reputation in those circles and it showed with the people who came all that way to be a part of that event. But all those people stayed here, some of them for four and five days. The hotels were all booked up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They had so many people that they sent them to several different restaurants and I know all those had great a weekend. They shopped, bought gas and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no
question that it was a big, big deal for the local economy.â&#x20AC;? Shaw said as he walked about the cars and shook hands with those on hand there was one recurring theme. Several people told the mayor how welcoming the people of Alexander City had been during their stay. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just about everyone I talked with complimented the people of Alexander City and said that they were amazed at how friendly everyone was,â&#x20AC;? Shaw said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had several people tell me how much they enjoyed being here. One man from Chicago said â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;You have one of the nicest little townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever seen.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; That really means a lot to me to know that these people came from
across the country and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the impression that they will leave here with. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly great to hear good things like that.â&#x20AC;? Dave Lolley from Washington State drove his 1970 Daytona all 2,600 miles to Alexander City. Unlike some of the cars on display, he drives his machine every day. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the fun of having one,â&#x20AC;? Lolley said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an incredible feel. We drove three of them all the way down and not a single mechanical problem. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is my second time here and every time I leave seeing something that just makes me say â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Wow.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great town and the people are so friendly. We will be here
every time they have one.â&#x20AC;? Shaw said he hopes that all the activity will prompt local folks to visit the museum and spread the word. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think there are a lot of people right here in our own area who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fully realize what that museum is all about and what a big deal it is in the car collector world,â&#x20AC;? Shaw said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People may drive to Talladega or Barber Motorsports to look at a race car, but we have some of the finest examples of cars right here in Alex City. We hope that residents seeing all these cars in town, they may take the time to visit the museum and enjoy what we have here in our own backyard.â&#x20AC;?

Dadeville wins first match, ends season in Sweet 16 By Robert Hudson Outlook Sports Editor
The Dadeville Lady Tigers opened the Class 4A Super Regionals with a win, but finished up their season in the Sweet 16 in Montgomery at the Cramton Bowl Multiplex. Dadeville (11-7) defeated Thomasville 3-2 (2521, 18-25, 21-25, 25-13, 15-6) in round one of the Class 4A South Super Regional last Friday to advance to the Sweet 16 the following Saturday. However, Dadeville ended the season with a 3-0 (25-18, 25-14, 25-10) loss to Satsuma. Though the season ended in the quarterfinals, Dadeville Coach Magan Ford said she was proud of the Lady Tigers’ efforts. “I thought the girls did a great job. They fought through some adversity in the first-round game,” Ford said. “We won the first match, but lost the second two, so their backs were against the ropes. They found a way to win and make it to the Sweet 16. I was proud of them because we had been working on finishing all year, and they found a way to finish to make it to the Sweet 16.” Ford said the Lady Tigers were led by one of their two seniors in Hallie Cox. “I’m very proud of them for working through it,” Ford said. “In my opinion, I think Hallie Cox had the best game I’ve ever seen her play, so I was proud to see her perform at such a high level in that big moment.” With a young group of players returning next year, Ford said the Super Regional trip was valuable in showing the team that hard work does pay off. “Any time they can see their hard work pay off, it’s good because it gives them something to build on for next year,” Ford said. “We have seven sophomores returning and four or five freshmen returning next year. So, it’s good that we had such a young team that can see that hard work pay off because they have something to focus on next year.” Ford added that the experience will prove valuable for players returning next season for Dadeville. “We have two very young setters – a sophomore, Maliyah Williams and a freshman, India Miller. This is their first year setting in a Super Regional, so that was good experience for them,” Ford said. “In the future, they’re basically going to be like the quarterbacks of our team, so it was good for them to get that game experience at a young age.”

A win over Chilton County last Friday sent the Benjamin Russell Lady Wildcats to the Sweet 16, but that is where they ended their season on Saturday in Montgomery. The Lady Wildcats (24-12) opened the Class 6A South Super Regional with a 3-0 (25-12, 25-15, 25-9) win over Chilton County last Friday to advance to the Sweet 16 the following Saturday. But the Lady Wildcats’ season ended on Saturday with a 3-0 (2516, 25-5, 25-12) loss to Daphne. Pam Robinson, head coach of Benjamin Russell, said it was a good season overall from the Lady Wildcats. “As a whole, I’m really pleased with our kids and with the progress we made this year,” Robinson said. “It was a good season. We didn’t have any drama, the kids worked hard, different players stepped up at different times and we had good senior leadership.” Robinson said the Lady Wildcats lost to a tough opponent in Daphne and did not play their best. “I’m disappointed with how it ended. I would have liked to have really played well and if we got beat, we got beat,” Robinson said. “But we didn’t play our best in our last game. We beat Chilton County and then had Daphne, and I knew
from watching Daphne that it was going to be a tough game for us. The first game of the match, we were right there with them playing point for point, but we missed a series of four serves in a row and went from a 14-14 score to end up getting beat 25-16.” Robinson said the Lady Wildcats could not regain their composure against Daphne, but added she is proud of the Lady Wildcats’ efforts. “The second game, we could just not find our intensity and the kids got frustrated with themselves, and you just can’t do that,” Robinson said. “I tell them, you have to let the
last point go, but they just couldn’t move on. So, I’m disappointed in our mental toughness a little bit, but I’m not disappointed in the kids at all. Their effort was still there, we just had a tough time getting mentally back into the match.” Robinson said she has a young team coming back next season that has some crucial experience from this year’s finish. She said she is excited about the future. “They’re pleased and very excited with our kids coming back. Like I told the kids, normally I’m kind of tired at the end of the year and I need a few weeks to get back ready for volleyball,” Robinson said. “But I wish I could get started with them again today. They’re that fun to work with.” And if the numbers are what Robinson expects, she will look to add a ninth-grade team at BRHS next season. “I’m really excited. We had 15 kids down there (at Super Regionals) and hopefully 12 of them will be back next year,” Robinson said. “We have some kids that were on JV that I couldn’t bring up that I think might push for some spots on varsity next year. I’m hoping next year we’ll have three volleyball teams at the high school – a ninth grade team, a JV team and a varsity team. I’m hoping that many kids come out from the middle school to make us have a ninth grade team.”
Ten takeaways from Saturday’s action in college football
S
ome (probably misguided, perhaps even ill-informed) thoughts from this past Saturday and the college football season in general: 1. Alabama’s offense under Lane Kiffin is bizarre. Generally effective, but bizarre nonetheless. How can a team with the likes of Derrick Henry and Calvin Ridley be so dynamic yet totally confused at the same time? What’s even more bizarre is that, after all of the hand wringing by folks (like me) about Jake Coker, he may just be the perfect guy to run this offense. The offensive line is a total mystery, which means the QB must be somewhat agile and definitely tough enough to take the punishment that is doled out each week. Coker certainly isn’t the most efficient passer in SEC history, but he is tough as a two dollar steak. Unbelievably, he has earned the respect of his teammates through sheer grit alone and he deserves the fans’ respect as well.

2. Leonard Fournette and LSU come to Tuscaloosa in two weeks and the nation’s best runner will have a shot at breaking the LSU record for consecutive 100-yard games. Alabama has one of the best rushing defenses in the country and maybe the best front seven of Saban’s tenure. Just a small subplot to this clash. 3. Yes, Tennessee is still a rival of Alabama’s despite losing nine in a row (and seven of those by double digits and even though I suggested on Twitter they weren’t for a terrible joke). No, Tennessee is not a bigger rival than Auburn no matter how much you try to convince yourself. However, since Saban has been at Alabama, the Tide’s
number one rival has been LSU even if the hate isn’t as deep historically. These previous three sentences seem obvious, but apparently they need to be said. 4. Even if Alabama gets by LSU on Nov. 7 (and I make no promises there), the Mississippi State game in Starkville will be quite difficult. The Tide has been prone to big win hangovers postUGA and A&M. Dak Prescott is still the best quarterback in this league, too. 5. For the “refs looooooove Alabama” crowd, consider this: There has not been ONE holding call against an Alabama opponent in SEC play DESPITE the fact that UA has the best front seven in the country. Not one. That, people, defies all odds. 6. I thought Auburn played better against Arkansas in a loss than they did against Kentucky in a win. #SECLife. The question now is can the Tigers find a way to beat Ole Miss, UGA, Texas A&M or Bama and become bowl eligible (assuming a win against Idaho)?
I believe AU will be underdogs in all of those contests. The schedule would have worked out better if Auburn had A&M up next as they look like a tire fire right now. 7. Speaking of the Aggies, eventually, one day, we will all stop buying into the Texas A&M hype-train. I have no idea when that day will be, but it is coming. Until the Aggies decide the running game (both having one and stopping one) is critical, they will continue to lose to the best of the SEC save the occasional Manziel-esque miracle. 8. There’s nothing worse in sports than hearing “we’re close” (except maybe, “Welcome your NEW coach…. Mike Price”), but Tennessee looks on the cusp of being a good team. Not championship caliber, mind you; but really good. For the last eight years Alabama looked bigger, stronger and faster than the Vols. Last Saturday that gap appeared much more slender. For the first time in a decade, UT had 7-8 players starting that
I thought were better than 7-8 of ‘Bama’s. 9. Thank goodness there are only four teams that make the college football playoff. Otherwise, a team like Florida State – who lost to a Georgia Tech squad that had dropped five straight games – may have a shot to get in. FSU blew it against a far inferior, maybeeven-un-bowl-worthy opponent. The Seminoles do not deserve a shot at a national crown regardless of their record the rest of the way. Having only four teams in makes every game important. Alabama, as it stands, should not be in either without some help. The lesson is don’t lose (or only lose to good teams and no more than once). 10. My final four this week: 1. Clemson 2. LSU 3. Ohio State 4. TCU …. First two out: Michigan State and Bama. Until Baylor plays a team with a pulse, I can’t put them in. Robinson is a sports columnist for The Outlook and president of the Lake Martin Bama Club.
