Err no that’s a VERY pass heavy and imbalanced offense by any standard.
I admit I pulled those numbers off the top of my head. Probably overstated but point is that more passing to rushing is the norm nowadays. Saban’s switch to a wide open offense with more passing with Kiffin is well documented. He’s pulling in 5-star QBs and WRs from all over the country. Bama is arguably QBU and WRU now. You would have never believed that 10 years ago.

That's great and all but 1 championship last six seasons tells me WRU wasnt his most effective strategy.

Even in the most pass heavy years Bama hardly exceeds 50%. It did peak in 2021 with 53.07% passing plays.
Hope that’s a good illustration of just how far out 65% is. That’s June Jones at Hawaii level or Leach, well anywhere lol.
