re: How would you gameplan against bama if you were Hugh Freeze?

On defense I'd press Bama's WRs all game long. Play a Safety over the top on Coop. If Howard is in line and goes out on a pass pattern, have DEs press him. Then shoot the gaps right up the middle and force Blake to make a quick decision, eat the sack, or try to escape.

On offense I'd use a lot of ghost sweeps and toss action while attacking the middle with the ground game. I'd match up one of my big WRs or Engram on Cyrus Jones and throw him a lot of back shoulder throws. If Nick Perry is the deep Safety I'd consider taking some deep shots. If LC is the deep Safety I'd avoid it unless someone was wide open. Finally, I'd get Engram behind the LBs. DePriest and Ragland can't cover him, and I'd exploit that all game long.
