What happened

Alabama handled South Carolina 49-18, and the turning point was less a single snap than the moment the margin stopped feeling competitive and the comment section pivoted from football to career counseling for the visiting sideline. "Shane Beamer— get ready to learn Analyst, buddy," one fan offered, with another noting it's "too bad for him the Saban School For Coaches Who Don't Know How To Coach Good closed its doors." Misery dropped from 53 to 36. At 4-0, contentment is the scariest stage, because Alabama fans only know how to enjoy things retroactively.
