Man, I’m looking forward to plenty more tortured football metaphors where that came from. (And I still think Sessons is missing a golden opportunity to rag Tubs over 2004.)

Tuberville now calling Jeff Sessions a "cut-and-run" senator. So it looks like the runoff will be another referendum on who loves Trump the most. #alpolitics

Tommy Tuberville once walked out of a dinner with recruits, accepted the Texas Tech job, and didn’t come back into the room https://t.co/2kw09FJNmG

Tuberville was 9-8 (unless I overlooked any) in overtime games if anyone’s curious.

Bernies was riding high after big wins at Iowa State, New Hampshire, and UNLV. He wasnt ready for the SEC SPEED in South Carolina and got his brakes beat off.
A lot of great seasons have been derailed in South Carolina.

I think Tubs wins this one because too many Trump voters won’t vote for the “beleaguered.” Gives Sen. Jones at least a sliver of hope. If tubs has any serious skeletons in the closet it could get interesting.

I thought he accepted the Cincinnati job that way while he was at Texas Tech. Still, Coach Pine Box is a politician who happened to coach football for a few years.

Just play that video of Tubs walking across Bryant Denny with those 5 fingers held high. No Bama fan will vote for him.

Tubs oughta be a good Senator. If you think about it both a college coaches and politicians tell folks what they think they want to hear in order to get them to be on their team…

I was in Birmingham yesterday and very nearly stole a Tuberville sign from a front yard but thought better of it.

If Sessions pulls it out in the runoff, it will be high comedy watching Tuberville (and Trump, probably) turn on a dime and extol him as an American hero.

I can’t believe Tubs will win in Alabama. More than half the state hates him and will never vote for him for anything because they are Bama fans. The Barners are lukewarm on him with half of them glad he got runnoft from Auburn. Plus, Tubs ain’t even a real Alabama citizen. He’s from Arky and has coached all over. Sessions cruises in the run off.

Some UGA boosters should put together a faux campaign commercial full of clips of Auburn getting beat under Tuberville with a condemning voiceover & everything & then when folks expect the “I’m Jeff Sessions & I approve this message” at the end, hit em with “Auburn sucks. Go Dawgs.” instead. Just pay to put it on the air a few times & put out a press release & you might even get some free airtime with the national media as a funny local interest story.
