You should re-read the list and re-think what it says.

I'll give you another hint, the percentages don't add up to 100%.


I looked at it from different angles, and it still doesn't make sense. you were obviously counting some runs in more than one category. in other words, you were massaging the data to get it to say what you wanted.

if I read it aright, (and who knows?) 22 of those runs were less than 5 yards, and 10 of those were 0. over half your runs weren't getting it. add in the ineffective passing game, and ya'll weren't making fist downs with 2 rushes.

it wasn't what you normally get from Alabama - either a dominant rushing performance OR being able to break a lot of runs for big gains. you couldn't make enough first downs to hold onto the ball.

would Alabama have done better just to keep pounding it in there ala les miles? IDK. doubt it, though.

Just be happy going 11-2 Bama. You ain’t the juggernaut you were in the past. It’s okay. You had a down year. It happens to everyone. Hell some teams have down centuries, or at the very least, decades. 11-2 is nothing to sneeze at. You’ll get a handsome payout from the CFP. Go ride off into the sunset until next year. You may have to start thinking about getting a real quarterback though.

I'm estatic with that thought. We overachieved overall as a team due to injuries and overcoming consistently inconsistent positional play and playcalling.

I've no reason to be anything but pleased.

IF Dabo wins this game, he all but assures that he'll be the next head coach at Alabama when Saban retires in a couple of years.
