re: Finally, we play a team with a "normal" offense

The line on the game is Alabama -16.

Your assessment is almost spot on. Only thing different I would say is you DON'T want Henry going north and south, that's where he'll kill you. When those big legs get going he's the best back in the country imo. You want him going laterally, he's kind of bulky and doesn't have elite quickness or agility.

That's true but I think the three possessions before that were punt, missed FG, bad execution on a fake FG. They may have even punted the possession before that, can't remember.

The only reason we got the ball back at the end still holding on to the lead was due to our defense.

I just think we played exactly the same way on offense that has had us at 0-9 in close games before we finally broke through and got the close win and the road win.

Could almost call us dominant on offense for three quarters but we're still freezing up a bit in the fourth.

Maybe this win is what we needed to change that going forward.
