I didn't see a single WR bubble screen or jet sweep last night. I think it was by design and Saban wanted to play the whole game close to the vest. Not really sure why we went away from that strategy. It worked well this season making opposing defenses run sideline to sideline in the 1st half, setting them up to pound them between the tackles in the 2nd half. It's one reason I'm not drinking the orange koolaid everyone else is drinking concerning our offense last night.Thoughts?
I noticed that too. I think Saban has had a master plan all along. Maybe I'm thinking too hard, but with Sark calling plays now, Clemson will undoubtably at least have to scan some old USC film to look up his tendencies. Not to mention, I'm betting Clemson doesn't make the mistake of not accounting for OJ Howard. I'm guessing Clemson runs a lot of Cover 4 and Cover 1 Man this time around. Cover 2 got their asses torched last year.

Watson hasn't been nearly as good this season as last year. As long as our playcalling remains unpredictable, yet logical, we will win.

I'll say 27-17 Alabama.

Still proud of this team, to make the NC game with a freshman QB is Impressive. The loss didn't hurt as bad as others because I expected it and thought we were going to but it stills sucks.



I expect us to be real good next year on offense, and I'm confident Jalen will make vast improvement in the passing game. Our whole secondary returns (maybe Hump leaves but I think he will be back), our only concern is our DL depth and what kind of pass rush can we generate next year, if we can figure that out I expect us to be hungry and back in the National Title game.


FSU better watch out!!

Also sounds like Mario Cristobal is gonna go to Oregon. He is a great recruiter but I've thought our O-Line has been lackluster since he took over.
