One of my only complaints (besides end of half timeout/clock management) about the Saban era here is the way he handcuffs the backups on offense when they come into a blowout. The only exception was 2017, and by God, were we lucky that happened. I know he's trying to be respectful to the opponent, but I don't think letting backups run offense is disrespectful. Maybe if you still had your starters in there slinging it.

Completely agree. I'm cool with going into run out the clock mode as soon as the opponent signals that they're not trying to score anymore, but how often does our opponent keep their starters in trying to score late cosmetic TDs? All the fricking time. If they're still trying to pull that crap, there's no reason not to let our backups run the normal offense as best they can.
