Bama Fans have just about come full Circle with Saban. They are learning everything we LSU Fans already knew. Saban is great at taking over a floundering program. He puts everything in place and the team wins the NC. But after all that his teams are pretty flat. All the motivation of going from a bad program to winning a NC is gone and Saban does not know how to keep it going.
Bama 2010 looks a whole lot like LSU 2004
Saban is a builder of programs, not a maintainer.

Saban teams with a lead seem to play scared. They look like they are having fun building the lead up, but then once they get the lead, they begin playing timid and scared just hoping to not be the guy who fricks the lead up and gets yelled at.
For instance, look at Barron's atrocious handling of the 2nd deep TD pass on him. If he is playing loose and naturally, his instincts kick in and he goes for the pick and likely gets it. Instead the "don't frick this up" mentality kicks in and he thinks too much. He ends up halfway going for the pick and halfway for the big hit and gets neither.
Saban constantly over-preaches the whole idea of not losing your composure when up big, when maybe he should be telling the guys to loosen up, have fun, and keep playing like they have been.
