To be fair, the Bama boys never quit and made the game very pretty exciting down the stretch, and perhaps that is why a couple of Nick Saban's boys were pretty quick to talk trash after the game.

Wide receiver Parker Barrineau tweeted this out to the world about ten minutes after the game. Some guys were probably still out on the field when he sent this out:

Defensive back Cyrus Jones didn't want to give Ole Miss any credit either:

When you win as much as they have their arrogance makes a little sense. In recent years they have managed to bounce back from every early season loss and still play for something big in the end. However, this year they don't have things they had then--a sufficient number of play makers.
The defense is good and Derrick Henry is a beast, but Jacob Coker is about a season away from being capable of guiding Alabama to post season glory. He's good, but he's still pretty raw. As fans saw Saturday night he is making a lot of mistakes.
With the way Alabama looked tonight LSU, Georgia, Tennessee and Texas A&M all have a shot to beat the Tide.
