I understand him not wanting to throw the ball to give the opponents a chance for an interception or a pick 6, but don't shut the offense down all together. Bama had Julio, TRich, and Ingram. If you're dominating a team , one of the worst things you can do , is let your opponent start to believe they can come back.


In his defense, McElroy played that game with broken ribs and couldn't throw. That's why he only threw five relatively short passes the whole game.

Wat? Why not play a QB that can throw, at least for a game?

Because Star Jackson sucked, A J McCarron was still a red shirt freshman, and he didn't need to.

Mike in Mandeville, La., writes: I'm down on Nick Saban, but not for the reasons most LSU dislike him. I just need to look at the last play of his tenure at LSU, the Iowa "Hail Mary." Saban was DB coach and that garbage could happen? Nicky was always pulling boneheaded stunts, only saved by the awesome talent he recruited. Anyone remember his annual inability to pick a starting QB? How about UAB 13 LSU 10? The 2000 Arkansas game he failed to use a time out to punt with the wind and ended up with a 3-yarder to start the 2nd quarter? How about 4th & inches at his own 27 during the 2001 SEC title game? The dog show from 2002 that started in Auburn and culminated in the Cotton Bowl loss to Texas? 2003 Florida? UGa 2004? Nick seems to have learned a great deal from the NFL, but the poor in-game calls that cost LSU from 2000-2004 will always have Lil' Nicky No. 1 on my dog list!


What about it? Coach Saban has proven himself one of the best ever by the 4 year turnarounds at LSU and Bama but he's not Gawd.....really.

Really the only people that can legitimately clown on his coaching are Miami Dolphins fans.

I wonder how dominate he could've been had he been Texas's coach or USC's coach. It wouldn't have been fair.


One has to wonder since the last four years at Alabama have been nothing but disappointment.

Imagine if he was able to get top talent and #1 recruiting classes at Alabama with the facilities to go with it.

Or maybe you are referring to the lesser competition in lesser conferences, in which case I'm just going to eat a dick.
