"I've got a lot of friends I played with over there and a lot of coaches," Ealy said. "It's going to mean more to me playing in that game and just being fired up about going out there and just really doing what I need to do for my team. But also, getting a little revenge, I guess you could say."

The reason these players perform good after being released or traded is because they get motivated. Steve smith had around 700 receiving yds. We release him, he goes for over 1,000yds next season. Well gee, if you had played like that before, you wouldn't have been released. After his, "look panthers made a mistake by releasing me" season, he never eclipsed 800yds or 5 tds again. Same with d willis. He was continuously injured and barely had 200 rush yds. He gets released. He goes off in Pitt for over 800 yds and 11 tds starts talking trash. Well gee, maybe if you were playing like that before, we wdnt have released ya! Same goes with ealy. Some players needa get cut to find motivation.

Smitty was averaging nearly 100 yards per game before he tore his achilles a couple years ago. He was absolutely dominating that year. And was very solid last year coming off the injury. I don't necessarily think releasing him was the wrong move, as his production in '13 was dropping and he had a huge salary going forward, but to say he wasn't still good aside from being mad about the release is just stupid.

    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
