Who else thinks that the whole Nick Saban and Bret Bulimia concerns about fast paced offenses is a load of shite? They are concerned because it is hard for their big, slow arse teams to defend against.

Agree 100%.

They can DWI and condition their team better, and then kindly shut the frick up.

As long as a plodding, punishing offense can have long drives that eat up the clock, you can eliminate a fast offense tempo advantage.

They can't do shite unless they're on the field.



Your presumptions are spot on.

<---This guy

If they were really concerned about player safety, they should start clamoring for weight limits like the peewee leagues do it.

Nice theory, but between Freeze and Gus, they have one win combined over the two.

Thanks a lot Saban.

They are just crybabies. Refs always slow it down for Alabama when they are playing a HUNH team anyway.

I'm a fan of power football but I think long drives pounding the ball to control clock would be more of a risk to player safety than a quick tempo offense. I don't really see the argument there

I love that the Bammer fans feel the need to defend their sissy coach on this one.

It's a weak argument. But there is a reason none of the elite teams run a HUNH

ETA: In the SEC, that is

It has to do with not being able to sub for players.

During "long drives pounding the ball to control clock" subs can be made after every play.

Why is Nick so scared about it. I'll tell you why. He saw a team that went on winless SEC streak for two years come in and smack his team around a little. I know we lost but we played for respect and passion. This year we kick them in the nutts.

There's nothing they can do about it... Continue to bitch I guess... Freeze said it best anyway... The best athletes in this league are on the defensive side of the ball... Condition them correctly and teach your scout team the no huddle and you will always be prepared.

I'm just tired of hearing about it. It reminds me of political trickery. Nicky and his merry band of stripped fools are going to slow down the pace.... bank on it.

Yes, he is scared of a team that won 3 SEC games last year.

He is also terrified now that Auburn has plucked another coach from the Sunbelt.

UGA played 3 HUNH offenses in 2012.


Ole Miss... UGA won 37-10

Georgia Southern... 45-14

Georgia Tech (finished 4th in the nation in rushing yards with the triple option) 42-10


If fast offenses are superior, then why do they keep losing?

It is full of shite. Its called the evolution of college football. Fat fricker thinks its not fair. Guess what: deal with it. Its not our fault that your players don't have the conditioning. We don't care about time of possession.

The speed of the defense is more important than the offense.
