If you gave the same guys to Kirby Smart would the result be the same?

That's kinda my point, but I wasn't even talking about replacing coaches, just the scheme. Yes, bama does run the 3-4 but they only played 3 good rushing teams (UGA, aTm and LSU).

LSU had 140 yards rushing, aTM had 165, and y'all had 113 on fewer carries than either of the other ones. A good NT is key for the 3-4, Jenkins and Geathers were great, so you guys had the right players, but it might not have been coached to them well enough. The 3-4 is really different from the 4-3 (assignments and all) and that's what most of those guys had been playing for years before this system.
