How does Alabama go about slowing Johnny Football?


the same way you stop any mobile qb. you keep him in the pocket with a controlled rush. sacking him wont be a priority. he makes almost all of his big plays (both run and pass) once the play disintegrates and hes out there in space. same plan as for denard robinson, although manziel is a better passer. also, you limit his opportunities by playing ball control offense. I know one thing, aTm will not be able to stop our ground game, so i figure we will ride that and eat the clock.

I don't think you're giving enough credit to our defense. They're not upper echelon yet but they aren't a slouch at stopping the run.

You rushed for 166 on LSU we rushed for 134.
