Subtract the 9-6 overtime defeat to LSU in 2011 and the combined touchdown-to-interception ratio in the other nine games was 24 to 2.


quote:

Statistic of the game: The Crimson Tide is tied for last in the SEC and 102nd in the nation in turnovers gained with five. Only nine teams out of 125 have four or fewer. Alabama’s turnover margin is also tied for 102nd.


quote:

1. Alabama has lost three straight games against ranked teams: Not only is this the first time it’s happened to Nick Saban at Alabama, but he also never experienced it at LSU. Granted, the Tide lost three games to ranked teams during the 2010 season, but not consecutively. In the middle was a 30-10 victory against No. 17 Mississippi State. It’s the longest streak for the coach since 1995-97 at Michigan State, when his teams lost seven straight to ranked opponents. Nevertheless, for his career he’s 51-36 against ranked teams (58.6 percent)


quote:

7. Who was thrown at: Ole Miss challenged Cyrus Jones six times resulting in just two receptions for 21 yards and a pass-interference penalty. It went after freshman Tony Brown eight times with six completions for 65 yards and a touchdown. With the game on the line junior safety Landon Collins appeared to have some trouble with the bunch formations and was the closest defender on three receptions including the last two touchdowns.

The bunch killed us.

Cyrus stepped up big time.

Brown made that one impressive play, but Treadwell made him look like a Freshman, which he is. Gotta get Eddie back healthy and keep getting TB and Cyrus reps.

Makes you wonder how bad off Eddie must be if we didn't play him. We played a hobbled Belue all last year because we believed he was our best option.

I thought brown played a great game. Only defense for a perfect back shoulder fade is getting beat over the top. He was in the hip pocket on those back shoulder throws. When done right it's basically an impossible route to cover, that's why you see it thrown so often against professional cornerbacks.

DePriest was a huge liability in those bunch formations.

We haven't stopped a slot/TE seam route all year. Southern Miss had success with it and it's been wide open ever since. I don't know how Smart hasn't caught onto this yet

But yes, Trey has been atrocious in coverage.

Trey has been atrocious in every aspect of the game. Even on runs he can't get off of blocks. Reggie Ragland has been awesome, an Trey has been very very average.
