Our coaches need to teach "Flopping 101" like Butch Jones

Only one in conference play IIRC. There were 10+ called on Alabama in conference play.

not that I disagree, but where did you get that stat? I dont see that they keep track of which penalties are called.

This is why the "BAMMER HOLDS EVERY PLAY ERRMMERRRGAAHHHHDD" is so hilarious to me.

We had the best defensive front seven college football has likely ever seen, and somehow or another opposing teams only held them 5 times all year? But the fix is in for Bama's offensive line?

There's really nothing else left anymore for the haterz. Bama is Daddy, and they've accepted it. Roll damn Tide.

well bama was in the lead pretty comfortably in most games so there was no need to call the holding calls against other teams

Now if it was close, different story

i dont know of anywhere that stores that stat, but you can easily go through the play by play on the espn box score, shows the result of every play, just expand all the drives and search for offensive holding

like trailing in the 4th in the national championship game, with clemson guards literally tackling our defensive tackles almost every play with 0 calls?

It's pretty obvious, to anyone who's paying attention, that Bama doesn't get the calls these days. This is normal human emotions/actions after the kind of success Bama has had lately. Even the Refs see Bama as Goliath and Bama opponents as David.

That's what made Bama's year even sweeter.
Bama climbed a serious mountain this season.

Yeah they do. They did a crappy job teaching Drake how to flop.
