Over the play calling after lsu went up 13-10? Very interesting if true and I hope he did!

I believe he did

Per what he told a few of us last week, he wasn't planning on calling plays as the HC. Could've changed his mind though.

Haven't seen any discussions anywhere about this except here

Regardless if he did or didn’t.. he’s not going to admit it and throw Grubb under the bus

No. And there never will be because it's another "trust me, bro" message board rumor like "Kiffin fricked a booster's wife, Milroe is holding the team hostage, the line refused to play for Ty, etc."

If true that would be a huge Alpha move that DeBoer played. However, I bet they see it as a total team effort.
Also, Keelon also put on a generational performance in the 2nd half. He was damn near a perfect qb. Clutch doesn't even describe it.. He was flawless. (With a bum ankle) Bama doesn't win this game if Keelon didnt explode. He was entirely the difference between Bama and LS.U.

All I know is something changed in the third quarter. The offense suddenly ran a lot smoother and actually looked like it was putting an emphasis on running the ball. None of those characteristics are one of a Grubb offense

We had a flailing possession that was aided by a late hit on the QB to extend it for a 2nd set of downs.
The second possession:
quote:
2:30 - 3rd
Shotgun #12 K.Russell pass complete deep left to #7 R.Scott caught at ALA46, for 57 yards to the LSU18 (#5 D.Pickett), 1ST DOWN
1st & 10 at ALA 25
That's it. They came out on first down and did something they do a lot: play action fake out of the gun with a half/quarter roll. However, Russell didn't throw to the roll side (right). He reloaded and went to the left side. I'm not sure if this was designed (expecting LSU to bite on the QB movement) or if Russell progressed to this throw to Scott. However, this play changed everything. Alabama's other full-field drive was a bit of a grind. This one was really one big play and a clutch Russell scramble to get out of a 3rd and 9 in the red zone.

Only rumors. Would love to know if true.

I was wondering if our offensive staff have caught on to the fact that defenses have been trying to take away Russell’s right side. I read somewhere that Kirby game planed against that, and Tennessee did the same. I think Keelon has definitely taken another step in his progression. That LSU defense is legit and probably top 5 in the nation.

No confirmation, but on the last TD you can see CKD talking into the headset. Not a great lip reader, but it looks like he says, “What’s the call?” If that’s the case, he was probably giving input on the plays in the 2nd half. Maybe Grubb called a play, and CKD gave his input.

Russell has been doing A TON of work. He said after the game that both CKD and Grubb had him prepared.
His footwork, patience, and pass action passes were NFL level in the 2nd half. Seriously.
Due to that, all he had to do is float the passes to the receivers - they were that wide open.

I doubt it. He had no play sheet in his hands and when they showed the booth you say Grubb with the clicker thing in his hands indicating he was sending the QB a signal. Made up BS is what I think. I bet they talk back and forth when the D is playing on calls they think will work.

Keelon had a good game but this win was all Womack and the defense putting us in great situations because outside of two drives that started on their side of the field the offense didn’t move the ball well.

This was probably our best called offensive game of the DeBoer era even if the yardage says otherwise.
There were a couple of runs that were close to breaking bigger. Pretty much the only thing that stopped pass plays was pressure due to missed assignments. We really need Sanders back. Waldrep may end up being a good IOL but that time isn’t right now.
If we could just execute consistently at G-C-G, this offense would be elite even without Ford out there. I like the blocking we get from 81 and 9 now. 40’s mean streak has rubbed off on them. 87 and 88 are great blockers too. It’s all about Delgatty getting back up to game speed and Sanders getting back out there.
