Looks like the author is retiring this piece. Hopefully someone takes it up in the future.

"The college football season is winding down and so too is my time with Roll Bama Roll. This is my fourth season as the custodian of the meltdown thread and I’ve deeply enjoyed my time as its humble guide.
I hope all the laughs I’ve tried to bring over the years will afford me this temporary indulgence into true sincerity. If not, just scroll down you know where the good stuff is by now. Though this column wasn’t my idea I tried my best to make it something new and different than it was before I got here. If you liked what this column became, wonderful. If not, now is the time to light your victory cigars at my retirement.
A few thank yous must be handed out before we get to the stuff we’re all here to actually read. Thank you Erik for hiring me, some random Texas Tech student, to take over this wonderful responsibility and for not firing me when I went off script. Thank you Josh for editing this bear for so many years and picking up the slack when I needed help. Thank you to every single person who got mad online and wrote a hilarious or vulgar comment in a place where I could find it. Lastly, thank you to everyone who reads, comments, or emails me about this column."

The Iron Meltdown
 
It scares me that there on people on this earth that believe this


What an awful coaching performance by Nick Saban! Giving up 48 points to a horrific Auburn offense and he STILL hasn’t found a kicker. HE MUST GO! #FireSaban

This is enough!! Saban has lost this team and doesn’t know what he’s doing anymore! 48 POINTS AGAINST AUBURN! It’s time to move on before the program is lost! #FireSaban
 
Year 1: Loses to Ohio State by 29 in Ann Arbor
Years 2-4: Brings in more of “his” players.
Year 5: Loses to Ohio State by 29 in Ann Arbor
“We are a beacon of greatness in a sea of cheaters and bagmen” is peak third-place-in-your-division energy.

Well, there are still people that believe the earth is flat, that vaccinations cause autism, and that the holocaust never happened, regardless of the scientific FACTS to the contrary.
The GOAT coach and they think he needs firing? Give me a fucking break.

Would love to see Saban hold a fake retirement presser.
I bet those people would be singing a different tune, wow!
 
Can’t believe we did Ohio State a favor saving them from their only Achilles heel, A team with an inspirational cancer story.

Christ.
 
Welp. At least nobody got a penalty for pretending to pee on the field.

I guess we've fallen this far lol.. Go Rebels (sheesh)

The Iron Meltdown
Merged the two threads guys...
 
Seems like I read somewhere that during the Saban era, Bama has missed more FGs than any other FBS team. That's just crazy.
101 missed kicks since Saban has been at Bama, 12 seasons. Outsmarted by Malzahn twice now with the game on the line..
but that doesnt even put a dent in the upside.. I wont list the Good things Coach has done for Alabama, at this point it would sound
like sour grapes.
Congratulations to LSU & Auburn, you earned it.
Some are predicting the end for Bama's current run.. I'm stoked to see what kind of team we field next year..
We'll be back.

I'll be the first to claim predicting the end of the current run (that actually ended 2 years ago). I predicted it pre-season. Bama ain't gonna fall FSU style, but the sheer dominance of CFB is over. Welcome back to having to actually fight.
