I guess you don't need as much water pressure when you still use troughs like in Neyland.

No idea. Really baffling. Or maybe they did, and just weren't athletic enough to make it count


Very likely this.

Looking at their schedule, before Bama the best defense they'd faced was Auburn - but that was in week 3 and UCLA was the only opponent where the aTm starters played a lot so there probably wasn't enough film for Auburn to pick up on it.

After that, they've two teams in Arky and Tennessee thatwho are currently upper 80s (of 128 teams) in total defense and 100s in rushing defense. A tell is useless to them. They would have a hard time stopping the play if they'd been given a copy of the aTm playbook.

The interesting one is USCe. They gave up more points to Mississippi State and Georgia than they did to aTm and held aTm to their lowest point total of the year outside of the Alabama game. I'd say odds are good Muschamp picked up on it and did the best he could to exploit it with the players he's got.

And your tackles are giving tells on every play if it will be a run or pass. Your point is?


Do we have the best athletes in college football? How did we roll up 450+ yards against teams like Auburn and Tennessee if figuring this out is so easy? Is every coaching staff we played pre Alabama that dumb?

Sounds similar to the story I heard about Brandon Harris at Bama last year.

Heard that he was already leaning with his foot open to the side we were running to every time, tipping off the defense. Not like it would've mattered anyway.

Not sure if I believe it either, because it sounds rather silly.



ETA: and oh aTm

See above. You got Auburn in week 3. Probably wasn't enough game film for it to stand out.

As for Tennessee, they're currently 82nd in total defense and 105th (of 128) in rushing defense.

Even if they know the play, they probably can't stop it.

So it's such an easy thing high school coaching staffs would figure it out, but it took SEC coaching staffs 6 weeks to figure it out?

Who says it did? All that's known for sure is that Alabama figured it out and told someone in the media after the game. There's nothing that says others didn't figure it out too and simply never got asked about it.

IMO, you should be more concerned that your staff came out of the bye week to face the #1 team in the nation without having noticed that their left tackle was tipping the play.

We never said we were that great? This whole conference including us is overrated except one team. At least we can admit it unlike the rest of you inbreds who prop up your personal identity on the strength of a football conference

100% tendency from TAMU's offensive tackle gave away the play selection, run or pass, every single time.

We don't have that kind of athletic advantage over teams like Auburn and Tennessee. Either they didn't figure it out, or the players on two of the best SEC teams are ignoring their coaches
