Clint Lamb posted this on twitter:



Rees started yesterday’s game by calling a PASSING play on three of Alabama’s first four first downs (75% pass). Following Milroe’s first INT, Rees called a RUN on eight of the next nine first downs (88.9% run). Didn’t start calling passes again until two-minute drill.



Alabama ran 16 plays of 2nd & 7 or longer. Threw the ball on 75% of those. Only ran 5 plays of 2nd & 6 or shorter. Ran the ball 80% of the time. First of all, that’s 3x more failed first-down plays than successful. Secondly, that’s way too predictable. Made things easy on Texas.



That tell me the trust level in Milroe was low.

Got damn! I don't believe people are that dumb to not understand the intent of what Clint was trying to tell everyone. Rees called a good game. Wrs were open throughout the game. This has been said many times... His trust level in Milroe went down after the first interception.

It was predictable but when you are one dimensional. you don't have many options.

Just try a couple of your other QBs, if they don't do any better, it is what it is. But if they trot Milroe back out to start the next game, the rest of the QB room should transfer next Sunday... and I wouldn't blame them.

What does that mean? You still think it’s time for everyone to get behind Milroe?

If we start Milroe on Saturday, we are doing nothing but kicking the can down the road. He’ll put up big numbers on South Florida and there won’t be any reason to bench him. He’ll then start against Ole Miss and we’ll be right back in this same spot.

Haven't seen any game breakdown to show this, yet. Besides... With that revolving door o line allowing d line in the backfield as soon as the bowling ball reached milroe, would it matter how open they are?

Passing on long distance and running on short distance is fairly common.

This was true yesterday. The entire team was bad, Everybody wants to blame Milroe and he deserves most of the blame but tell me who played well yesterday: offense & defense? Special teams were not bad,they were very good, except for that stupid penalty be Arnold.
