And in 2018 during the reversal of that again there was no choice since Tua's ankle got fricked. Again, no choice.


2018 actually was the smart choice. We had arguably the 2nd best pass defense in the SEC. But we allowed 10 rushing TDs to QBs that year. We didnt have the linebacker play (adjusting to no Roquan) for Hurts in 2018.

I see media and posters moan about a fake punt on 4th down in the SECCG. But a mobile QB like Hurts in a 2 minute drill against our linebackers? Give Bama the ball and we lose. Nothing was more obvious to me.

The only question was to run a fake or keep our offense on the field for the 4th down try.

I think you misunderstood. We fricked tua's ankle and he couldn't play. They had to put hurts in, it wasn't a decision for saban to make it was literally what had to be done

it was brilliant. Aboslutley one of the best calls I've ever seen, it was just executed as poorly as it could've been. In multiple ways.
