Blame Saban for playing a safety that couldn't lift his arm.

Is that why our offense couldnt put up more than 3 points in the second half? Huh.

Didn't we have at least a 21 point lead? I also think he took his foot off the gas in the second half. Same thing that almost cost us the game against Texas.

Did anyone think that 21 points was enough to beat Cam? I sure didn't.

There is no way Saban is that dumb. Surely you don't really think that. I blame Mcelwain.

Meh, our gameplan for that entire game was to pound the shite out of the ball, and that is what we did. I think Mcelroy threw like 9 passes.

Why did we quit throwing that slant to Julio that killed them in the 1st half? There are no adjustments they could make to stop it, & Julio was dominating them.

We scored our last possession in the 1st, then our first possession in the second half to make it 24-14. Idk what changed, but it wasn't taking his foot off the gas in the 2nd half

seems like the offensive play calling went a little vanilla...now who's fault is that we may never know. i know if i am the head coach, i will have a little say so as to how the offense play calling goes and don't for one minute think saban doesn't!

Before the 2010 AU game, there were a bunch of games under Saban where we nearly blew a 21+ point lead. (2007 - Ark, Houston, Colorado. 2008 - UGA, Ole Miss. 2009 - Texas Since 2010, we haven't seen one.

I definitely agree with the trend that BAMA was a start fast team and let off the gas in the 2nd Half. Do you think that has changed now? Seems like BAMA is a 2nd Half Team?

It seems like this has changed. We definitely wore teams down this year and seemed to play well later in the game.

I would have liked for this year's team to be a start fast finish fast team. We've had a god year, but it feels like it was one big missed opportunity. This offense could have been CRAZY, but Coop was hurt and playcalling was iffy. Plus the OL's struggles.

I think Saban learned a lesson in the 2010 Iron Bowl, he used to get a 14-17 point lead and left off the gas a bit. Since the 2010 Iron Bowl, Bama has been destroying teams.
