re: Did Lane Kiffin blow the game for Bama?

For sure.

But there's a reason why some coaches are more conservative in those situations.

I think we can all agree Kiffin isn't one of those coaches.

No, he isn't one of those coaches but no less than Saban himself said he was hired to open up the offense and he's most certainly done it. But as you said, when you take more risks you're going to get bit more often.

For the record, I wasn't a fan of the hire one little bit. I'm still not a fan of Kiffin as a person but it's simply intellectually dishonest for people (Bama fans in particular) to point the finger at him when the offense is churning out the numbers is is now.
