BAMA gets all the calls from the zebras:
According to TeamRankings.com, Alabama's opponents had the fewest penalties called against them in 2016, ranking No. 128 out of 128 teams.
Specifically, opponents were flagged just 58 times for 471 yards. It's the fewest of any Alabama team during the Saban era (since 2007) without even factoring in the number of games.
Alabama led the Football Bowl Subdivision in sacks for the second straight season, finishing with 54 (the 3.60 average was third). Fifteen different players notched one as defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt was aggressive with his play-calling.
So, one would think that it also saw opposing players get a lot of holding calls while desperately trying to protect their quarterback. They didn't.
Over its last eight games, Alabama's opponents were called for holding just once, versus Florida in the SEC Championship Game. They only saw three all season, the others came against Kentucky and Ole Miss.

I think 3 of the biggest are that ala-shame-ians are no good at poisoning, gay public teabagging and baking & sexting....

How many threads have been on this subject? over or under 100
and this stat does not prove/disprove what they think it does

It's somewhere in the mid 20's per the NCAA, although I think they're pretty delusional with that number.
